The Class II Biosafety Laboratory allows the cultivation, manipulation and analysis of different types of diagnostic and food-interest microorganisms, including, for example, E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeuroginosa, through the use of standard and innovative microbiological analysis methodologies.

The main services and activities are aimed at

• Creation of Raman libraries of bacterial microorganisms;
• Analysis of bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics or biocides;
• Analysis of the antibacterial properties of substances, nanoparticles or nanosystems and surfaces using standard microbiological tests;
• Quantification of the antimicrobial properties of non-porous or plastic surfaces through ISO 22196: 2011;
• Sterility analysis also of nanomaterials;
• Bacterial coltures.
