★★★★★

From cultivation to clinical trial

To launch a clinical trial on a microalgae with anti-cholesterol properties, the medtech ezCOL needed more than 1 kg of biomass. After several weeks in fed-batch, we reached a biomass production volume of 1.6 kg

Anti-cholesterol microalgae project - EzCol

★★★★★

Scaling up without having to compromise

“CAPACITÉS supported us from R&D to pre-industrialization of microalgae extracellular vesicle production and purification. We maintained and even increased the production yield of MEVs, scaling production from 1 to 450 liters.”

Lila D. - COO, AGS Therapeutics

New in 2025 : Short training program “Industrial microalgae and cyanobacteria cultivation”

4 days of theoretical and practical training covering the entire microalgae production chain: from media and inoculum preparation to final biomass harvesting under solar conditions.
