Expertise in wine microbiology
Based at the Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin (ISVV) and created in 2004, MICROFLORA® is the interface between the world of grape and wine microbiology research and that of professionals.
MICROFLORA® provides all players in the wine industry (producers, laboratories, manufacturers) with innovative tools based on scientific advances in Microbiology Research at the Oenology Research Unit.
MICROFLORA® offers cutting-edge analytical services for the analysis of grape and wine micro-organisms: species and strain identification, phenotypic characterisation, research into spoilage micro-organisms, etc..
The transfer unit's skills also enable it to answer microbiology questions from other sectors, mainly the food industry.
The unit also supports winegrowers in their experiments through customised studies. MICROFLORA® sets up, monitors and analyses microbial ecology studies, from the berry to the finished wine. Our expertise also covers the isolation and selection of microorganisms of oenological interest, in particular for the selection of indigenous strains of S. cerevisiae or O. oeni.
