Poseidon Sciences pursues the development of alternative technologies that are in harmony with the environment, such as innovations in development of nontoxic alternatives to biocidal compounds for industrial and marine applications, artificial culture of marine and freshwater organisms of economic importance and the discovery of natural compounds with applications for the improvement of human health.

 

Poseidon has a broad portfolio of technologies which include novel insect repellents, new designs of equipment for dynamic marine paint testing, and promising natural compounds for the treatment of diabetes, arthritis, pain, inflammatory and skin diseases.  Our laboratory and field testing services provide support for the paints and repellents industries, as well as biomedical institutions engaged in angiogeneis, anti-inflammatory and toxicology research.   

 

Nonprofit research programs are undertaken through Poseidon Science Foundation and with partner organizations.  These include malaria control and livelihood development for coastal fishing communities.
