Vive Biosafety Solutions

Our top priority is helping you keep your animals healthy. Raising healthy animals not only limits the potential spread of disease, it improves animal welfare and safeguards your research. We pioneer state-of-the-art microbial control solutions, leveraging patented PerQuat® technology. Our EPA-registered chemistries are proven to penetrate and remove biofilms found in harborage niches, killing up to 99.9999% of bacteria in biofilms. We’ve partnered with Quip Laboratories to set new standards to achieve biosafety and maintain facility and process sanitation in the laboratory animal sciences.

Pathogenic Biofilms

Biofilm plays a major role in the pathogenesis of disease. That’s because bacterial biofilms create massive breeding grounds for pathogenic bacteria like E. coli.

Pathogenic biofilms can lead to: 

  • Increased pathogenesis for bacteria like E. coli
  • Differences in prognoses of hereditary diseases 
  • Wasted hours tracking down the source of biofilm-related diseases
  • Inconsistent test results.
