HEALTH & WELL-BEING

Our friends
the microbes

Used for thousands of years by our ancestors, microorganisms have proven their benefits on health and well-being. For several decades, probiotics have been highlighted for their significant influence on human health. Indeed, beyond their indispensable action in the intestinal microbiota, more and more studies highlight their influence in certain metabolic pathologies, dementia or psychological disorders. The direct contribution of beneficial bacteria (probiotics) and/or substrates that favor their implantation (prebiotics, symbiotics), or even biomolecules derived from them (post- and parabiotics) are Greencell's research and development axes.

Microorganisms & Health

Pharmaceutical

Greencell is currently working in collaboration with academic and private players to develop fermentation processes and the production of raw materials for pharmaceutical use (MPUP). The targeted diseases are obesity, chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.

Nutraceutical

Greencell proposes the custom development of probiotics defined in 2001 by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) as "a living micro-organism which, when administered in sufficient quantity, has a beneficial effect on the health of the host. The probiotic products aim to improve digestive comfort, vitality and strengthen immunity.

Microorganisms & Well-Being, Cosmetics

Formerly criticized, bacteria are the new targets of cosmetic developments given the crucial role of the skin microbiota in the protection and defense of the skin. Based on parabiotic ingredients (inactivated intact form of the probiotic or cellular fraction based on peptidoglycan, surface proteins, membrane extracts) and/or post-biotic ingredients (refers to the products secreted during the fermentation of probiotics and responsible for their beneficial effects), Greencell sources renewable, eco-friendly and bioactive ingredients

from the microbial world for the cosmetic field.

Biotilys®

Greentech has been a pioneer in integrating a systemic approach in the development of its cosmetic actives in relation with the balance of the skin microbiota. Indeed, in early 2011, it developed the Biotilys® active ingredient, which combines parabiotic and post-biotic activity by exploiting the properties of a lactic acid bacterium "Lactobacillus pentotus".

Lactophyt ®

Greencell has developed a lactic acid bacteria fermentation process that produces an extract rich in bacteriocin and organic acids. This extract reduces the bacteria responsible for bad odors, preserves other commensal bacteria and thus limits bad odors in the armpits.

Hebelys ®

is derived from a fermentation process of Sphingomonas sp, a golden extremophile microorganism capable of surviving in stressful environments thanks to its high metabolic plasticity. This active ingredient has been designed using a systemic approach that specifically addresses the skin and emotional needs of women of the

Silver generation.
