Research and clinical studies
Between 2015 and 2016, Dr. Vicente Navarro, CEO and Scientific Director at Bioithas, developed two important investigations with probiotics in skin pathologies, specifically, in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. These scientific investigations resulted in two patents, which led to the need to establish Bioithas as a company.
From that moment on, several pharmaceutical laboratories became interested and contacted us to make new developments and, in parallel, we began to promote our own clinical studies in order to generate more knowledge in the field of microbiota and, finally, new probiotic products. and its associated patents. If you want, you can see the Curriculum Vitae of Dr. Vicente Navarro.
Our common link
The human microbiota
In this field, there are numerous and recent studies and research that relate this microbiota to the health and illness of the individual. Currently, there is a need to find personalized treatments where a common therapy for all patients does not work correctly, which has determined the importance of seeking specific and individualized solutions. All of this is in the focus of both technology companies and health authorities.
"We use this knowledge to develop, within various pathological lines, disease biomarkers on the one hand, and on the other, probiotic products that can act by modulating this microbiota and, consequently, improving the patient's health."
Our effort is rewarded
We focus on the study of the composition of the microbiota and its alterations associated with diseases, generating innovative products from this knowledge: probiotics and biomarkers.
