Production process of reference materials in food microbiology

Project 478

Problem to be solved

The lack of domestic production that leads to costly imports and the delay in the customs clearance of the material, which damages to the integrity of the material.

Proposed innovation

Self-sufficiency in the continuous, diversified production and in the supply of MRC for public and private institutions that perform quality control tests in microbiology.

Differential

• Material obtained from the Fungi Collection of Reference Micro-organisms in Health Surveillance (Fiocruz / CMRVS).
• Affordable acquisition and low cost.

Stage of development

Laboratory prototype

Transference of technology status
