Disease Monitoring

Helping researchers contain or prevent the next pandemic

Outsmarting pathogens: Germfree's decades-proven laboratories and equipment strengthen disease monitoring & biosecurity

Disease monitoring work runs through BSL-2, 3, and 4 containment requirements that exist for one reason: keeping personnel and the public safe while pathogens are being studied. As a result, Germfree designs and deploys facilities built to meet those standards from the outset. The infrastructure we provide gives researchers and public health agencies what they need to monitor, contain, and respond to infectious disease outbreaks as they emerge.
