We have long term collaborations with several private companies.

A special one is with CIFGA (www.cifga.com), a company created from one of our patents, and recently bought by a biotechnology company (AMS Labs https://www.ams-lab.com). Cifga is the only company to provide certified toxins following ISO 17034.
