To anticipate the proliferation of toxin-producing cyanobacteria and microalgae in environmental water, Phytocontrol offers near real-time monitoring of the targeted cell activity, to protect users and safeguard the economic activity linked to the resource.<\/b><\/p>\n\n

A leading player in the environmental sector, Phytocontrol works for the sanitary safety of water and supports municipalities, communities of municipalities and associations in managing their water resources (lakes, ponds, rivers, dams, etc.).<\/p>\n\n

Why monitor water?<\/h3>\n\n

In a context of climate change, ecosystem degradation and increasing pollution from human activities, we are seeing a resurgence of toxic cyanobacteria and microalgae proliferation at many sites, causing swimming or fishing bans every year. This issue is still not well known and is often approached using traditional analysis methods, which are costly and unsuitable for anticipating these phenomena.<\/p>\n\n

In addition to depleting oxygen in the environment, cyanobacteria and microalgae can produce toxins that are extremely dangerous for humans, domestic animals and wildlife. Ingestion of toxins produced by certain genera such as Microcystis, Anabaena, Nodularia, Cylindrospermopsis, Planktothrix, Aphanizomenon, Dolichospermum<\/em> can lead to intestinal disorders or, more seriously, neurological disorders that can be fatal.<\/p>\n\n

Genetic biosensors, an innovative technology to anticipate toxic risks.<\/h3>\n\n

In partnership with Microbia Environnement,<\/a> an innovative company and leader in environmental biotechnology, Phytocontrol supports you with analysis programmes using genetic biosensors capable of detecting living and active microorganisms in a given ecosystem in a targeted and highly sensitive way. With an appropriate testing frequency, it is possible to track the dynamics of microbial population changes and identify the onset or decline of a proliferation, like a \u201cweather forecast\u201d for water quality.<\/p>\n\n

Phytocontrol handles the entire safety process, from sampling carried out by highly qualified technicians through to data analysis, guaranteeing unrivalled expertise and responsiveness with results obtained in just 3 hours after receipt of samples.<\/p>\n\n

This personalised early warning system allows you to move from risk management to risk anticipation by adjusting the closure window of your water points, while sustaining the economic activities that depend on them.<\/p>\n\n

Need technical, regulatory or pricing information? Our customer service is available from 8 am to 8 pm, Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n\n
