About Micans

At Micans we offer analysis, studies and solutions to problems in technical and environmentally related contexts, where microbial and chemical processes have a vital significance. It includes the collaboration between three main research areas: Microbiology, Molecular biology and Chemistry. Our top-market position is upheld by the help of our highly advanced and adaptable research and analysis laboratory, and due to the fact that our scientists have an extensive and profound knowledge in both the practical and theoretical work.

Micans was founded in 2005 by two scientists from The University of Gothenburg, and has since developed into a family-owned, independent company. We first started our business in facilities hired from SIK – the institute for food and biotechnology in Gothenburg. We then moved to newly renovated facilities in Mölnlycke factories in 2008, where we still are today.

What we can offer at Micans is unique; a combination of both the practical and theoretical biological and chemical competence, as well as a good insight into the technical solutions of our clients. By assigning a project or study to Micans, the client can save both money and time, since all the work is combined at one location. In addition to this unique combination of skills, Micans also offers a very high scientific quality and reliability.
