The continued spread of African Swine Fever (ASF) across Europe represents a major threat to animal health and food security. The recent expansion of high‑risk zones in Spain, following the confirmation of more than 160 new cases in Catalonia, highlights the critical importance of surveillance and diagnostics to prevent the virus from spreading to domestic […]

Bertin Technologies is proud to continue its partnership with Thibaut Foray, a motorcycle racer and former soldier wounded in action, whose journey embodies resilience, pushing one’s limits, and dedication. Through this partnership, Bertin Technologies reaffirms its commitment to supporting men and women wounded in war, by assisting with their recovery and supporting their personal projects. […]

A recent study published in Molecular Metabolism (Batrow et al., 2025) sheds new light on the molecular mechanisms regulating lipid metabolism in brown adipose tissue (BAT). Using a conditional knockout mouse model with specific PPARα deletion in brown adipocytes (PPARαBATKO), researchers uncovered a previously unrecognized regulatory crosstalk between PPARα and ChREBPβ-driven de novo lipogenesis, with […]

Bertin Technologies announces its contribution to the Lazuli Space Observatory, the world’s first large-scale private space telescope­.

Surface sampling has long been a cornerstone of environmental monitoring, but it has limits. Pathogens, genetic material, and microbial contaminants circulate in the air and routinely escape swab-based protocols entirely. In environments where airborne transmission is a key variable, a monitoring strategy that stops at surfaces leaves a critical gap. The Coriolis® Compact was developed to close […]

When studying a disease with no cure, every sample counts. Researchers at Yale University share how they ensure their RNA is always RNA-Seq ready. A disease that affects 12 million people — and no treatment yet Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common inherited kidney disorders worldwide. Fluid-filled cysts progressively […]

The Bertin Technologies group announces the sale of its medical waste treatment business, marketed under the Bertin Medical Waste brand since 2014, to Ecosteryl. This strategic sale marks a new stage in Bertin Technologies’ focus on its core market: instrumentation for critical and scientific applications. This acquisition brings together two complementary players in the market: […]

From February 16 to 19, 2026, Bertin Nuclear will be present at the EURADOS Annual Meeting in Helsinki, a key event for professionals in dosimetry, radiation protection, and radiation monitoring. At booth 6, explore our comprehensive portfolio of solutions addressing the critical challenges discussed throughout the event: environmental radiation monitoring, radon measurement, and contamination control. […]

After several months of meticulous design and assembly, Bertin Winlight has successfully completed the Quadruple Mach–Zehnder (QMZ) destined for ONERA (the French Aerospace Lab). The QMZ is a monolithic interferometer operating in the ultraviolet range, at 343 and 355 nanometers. It is made up of silica components manufactured at the Bertin Winlight site in Pertuis, […]

Between collection and analysis, biological samples undergo multiple stress factors that can alter their composition. Lipids are especially vulnerable: in standard tubes, free radicals can react with lipid species and trigger peroxidation, generating artifacts that compromise quantitative accuracy. The infographic below illustrates this phenomenon. In a regular tube, free radicals present in the blood interact […]
