Scientific Publications & Research

At BaseClear, scientific research is at the heart of everything we do. We actively contribute to the global microbiome and genomics knowledge base through peer-reviewed publications, collaborative research projects, and innovative studies.

Our team of scientists and bioinformaticians work closely with academic institutions, industry partners, and clients to advance microbiome science and its applications in human health, food safety, animal well-being, and biotechnology.

Below is a selection of publications that reflect our scientific involvement, both as co-authors and as a trusted contract research organization (CRO). These contributions highlight the depth of our expertise and our commitment to scientific excellence, transparency, and innovation.
