Decipher
the gut
The gut is a black box where products are being transformed. At Cryptobiotix, we decipher this black box in the lab. We elucidate how ingested actives are affected by digestion and interact with the gut microbiome, impacting overall well-being. With innovative ex vivo and in vitro gut simulations and a dedicated team, we keep pushing the boundaries of preclinical research in the field.
Preclinical data
you can trust
Products intended to improve gut health frequently fail in clinical trials, due to unreliable data from in vitro models. Cryptobiotix was founded as preclinical CRO to bridge this gap, by developing the ex vivo SIFR® technology pipeline:
Services
At Cryptobiotix, we have redefined the approach to gut microbiome research. Utilising our innovative SIFR® technology, we offer a solution that combines high throughput and validated predictivity.
This modular technology simulates the entire gastrointestinal tract as needed for your project. If relevant, the upper GI digestion is implemented, before the ex vivo gut fermentation is recreated. By simulating gut conditions ex vivo, we overcome the limitations of traditional in vitro methods, providing actionable insights quickly and cost-effectively.
Our approach enhances biorelevance, increases throughput, and clarifies key findings through advanced data interpretation, fast-tracking and de-risking your product development.

SIFR® in screening mode
In screening mode, swiftly evaluate numerous candidates early in discovery phase and identify the most promising ones. Get quick and targeted insights into the efficacy of your products, dosing, synergies, and many more aspects.
SIFR® in prism mode
In prism mode, characterise the interplay between your products and the gut microbiome to provide unparalleled insights into mechanisms of action, efficacy, and interindividual variations. De-risk your product development with a fully validated and predictive ex vivo simulation, increasing your chances of success at clinical stage and providing you with all the data necessary to support IP and regulatory dossier submissions.
Applications
We simulate the gastrointestinal tract of humans across many ages and physiologies (healthy, diseased) as well as animals. We have extensive experience investigating all types of products in vitro and ex vivo, from pure ingredients to complex matrices.
