Your Microbiome Health Status, One Cell at a Time
KYTOS Technology
In just a matter of minutes, hundreds of thousands of microbes are scanned by a high-powered laser beam. Every microbial cell is stained by a cocktail of fluorescent molecules and is forced to reveal its secrets. No microbe goes unseen. Bacteria, fungi, (micro-)algae and many others are measured in just one single analysis.
Your microbial health assessment is in safe hands. We ensure quality measurements and interpretations from sample collection all the way to data interpretation.
Protecting Your Farm and Your Microbiome, All at Once
KytoVial
Collecting samples can be a tedious process that is prone to sampling errors, breaches of biosecurity, and difficulties in preserving samples during logistics.
Our KytoVials solve all of these issues. Our preservation solution kills-off every single microbe, while optimaly preserving the cells for analysis. Our vials have been tested for all applications ranging from animal guts, to plant substrates to pond sediments.
Quantitative and Robust Microbiome Data
Cytometry analysis
As the old saying goes “Garbage In = Garbage Out“. The quality of microbial health measurements is only as good as the sample and data quality.
Luckily, we can rely on the rich history and the many benefits of cytometric technology:
- < 5 % inter-replicate variation in microbial health parameters
- < 1 milliliter is required for an accurate reading
- Capable of handling low biomass samples
- 100 % of microbial cells (bacteria, algae, fungi) are measured and quantified
- Analysis time in minutes, rather than hours, days or weeks
- Optimized protocols for scalable analysis and rapid results
