José Morera’s laboratory is made up of four areas: analytical chemistry, basic chemistry, microbiology and microscopy.
In the area of analytical chemistry, the most modern techniques are used to control the quality of both the raw materials and the finished product. This laboratory has techniques such as ICP-OES, HPLC with DAD-UV-vis detection, as well as conventional separation and extraction techniques.
New products are developed in the basic chemistry area. In this area, new formulations are investigated, their behavior in terms of chemical stability, their packaging, storage and transport needs, as well as their compatibility with other products.
Microbiology allows to investigate different microbiological species, parasites or not of plants, antagonists or not of plants. Observe its characteristics and its possible effects on plant life. The laboratory is equipped with a bioreactor, security camera, fermentation ovens, etc.
The microscopy laboratory is equipped with an optical microscope capable of observing microorganisms as small as 2 microns “in vivo”. It also has a binocular loupe to be able to observe tissues at a macro level. Both techniques are equipped with photographic elements.
With all this, we have the tools with which to satisfy the demand for pre- and post-production research, from the birth of the new product, to its production.
