Swiss based start-up Microbe Investigations Switzerland (MIS) is focused on aiding individual customer product development through providing microbiological testing services and expertise. 
 
The launch of the MIS testing service can be described as highly successful and fast-growing. Outperforming forecasts, MIS has closed its first full business year (2013) with better than expected earnings. Up to now, a profound and solid foundation has been built, with customers such as the Swiss performance sportsbrands Mammut, Odlo and Kjus benefiting from the microbiological testing services.
 
In 2013, MIS -- a Swiss based provider of microbiological testing services, has handled more orders than originally forecasted. To support this growth the team has been expanded to 4 specialized employees and its state-of-the-art equipment upgraded to further enhance the capability. MIS is ideally positioned to handle a growing volume of requests and provide highly qualified, standardized and reproducible results all reported in an easy to understand format, with clear interpretation to aid customers in their product development objectives. 
 
Microbiological testing according to international standard

MIS conducts tests according to the count testing methods JIS L 1902/ISO 20743, JIS Z 2801/ISO 22196, AATCC-100 and ASTM E2149. Standard microbes include Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
 
Beside apparel brands and textile manufacturers, also retailers, consumer advocacy organizations, research institutions or chemical suppliers profit from the MIS services to validate product development decisions and quality control efforts. MIS supports customer innovation projects through its profound expertise and in-depth microbiology knowledge base as well as its comprehensive Biosafety Lab Class 2 facilities.
  
Focusing on antimicrobial product development
