About

Translational in vitro microbiota profiling and interaction studies for microbiome-based products.

Smaltis supports companies developing microbiome-based products with rigorous, translational in vitro microbiota profiling and interaction studies aligned with product claims, target indications, and regulatory expectations.

 We provide tailored microbiological and functional evaluations including:

  • Community profiling and functional screening using defined microbiota models

  • Modulation studies on microbial products (prebiotic, probiotic, postbiotic effects)

  • Pathogen inhibition and competitive exclusion assessments

  • Safety-oriented microbiological evaluations

  • Customized strain panels and mechanistic investigations of microbiota effects

Our approach relies on biologically relevant models to generate robust, reproducible data that support development decisions, safety documentation, claim substantiation, and regulatory discussions.

We collaborate with both early-stage innovators and more advanced SMEs, integrating seamlessly into discovery programs as well as structured preclinical development pipelines.

We partner on functional microbiome research for next-generation microbiota-based products, providing scientifically sound data suitable for safety assessment and claim substantiation, strengthening the scientific foundation of your product development
