Biogents – Science for Your Protection –

Qui sommes-nous?

„Comment un moustique repère sa proie? Et qu’est-ce qu’il l’en empêche?”

La réponse à cette question simple en apparence est le sujet de prédilection du Dr. Martin Geier et ses collègues de l’institut de zoologie de l’université de Ratisbonne. Pendant plus de 12 années de recherche, ils ont analysé les odeurs et substances les plus diverses, observé le comportement des moustiques dans différentes expériences en laboratoire et dans la nature. Ils ont déterminé au fur et à mesure les facteurs clés du comportement des moustiques permettant de toujours mieux comprendre ces porteurs de maladies dangereuses.

Ces recherches sont principalement motivées par l’aspect pratique des résultats obtenus, à savoir le développement de méthodes plus efficaces et plus spécifiques pour la lutte contre les moustiques. C’est dans ce but que Dr Geier et son collègue Dr. Rose ont créé l’entreprise Biogents qui a maintenant 27 employés et dont la réputation n’est plus à faire.

Nos activités s’étendent sur deux domaines : d’abord le développement et la production de pièges à moustiques hautement performant ensuite le service aux entreprises leur permettant de tester des répulsifs ou autres produits anti-moustiques. La recherche et le développement reste la priorité de Biogents: Nos scientifiques et ingénieurs développent et optimisent sans arrêt nos produits.

Nos produits

Biogents développe et produit des pièges brevetés contre les moustiques et autres insectes hématophages. Ces pièges présentent une capacité de capture bien plus importante que d’autre construction disponible sur le marché. C’est pourquoi, l’efficacité des pièges Biogents est aussi étudiée dans le cadre de la lutte contre la dengue. Un projet soutenu par la banque mondiale, la fondation Bill & Melinda Gates et l’Etat brésilien.

La diversité des produits Biogents englobe maintenant aussi bien des pièges utilisés dans le monde entier par les scientifiques, les professionnels de santé et autres spécialistes (BG-Sentinel) que des pièges pour le consommateur final (BG-Mosquitaire CO2, BG-Mosquitaire et BG-GAT).

Services aux entreprises

Notre „espace laboratoire“ offre un large éventail de méthodes permettant de tester et d’analyser différents répulsifs et produits anti-moustiques comme les sprays, les lotions, les textiles spéciaux, les produits répulsifs agissant à distance ou d’autre produits comparables. Biogents vous conseille, teste vos produits et vous accompagne dans leur développement. Nous effectuons aussi des comparaisons entre les produits et pouvons conduire des tests fournissant des preuves d’efficacités.
