About bitop
bitop AG is an innovative biotechnology company. bitop AG is the only company worldwide studying, developing and producing natural compounds responsible for stress resistance of extremophilic microorganisms, the Extremolytes.
Many scientific studies show that the same basic protective mechanisms that are conserved in extremophilic microorganisms for millions of years can be employed to protect humans from hostile environmental conditions.
bitop´s business model is based on products deriving from the Extremolytes.
Currently bitop disposes of different new low-molecular actives (extremolytes) in different phases of product development and marketing. bitop AG develops and markets products either alone or with partners in the field of cosmetics and health care.
Ectoin® and Hydroxyectoin are two products already available for the cosmetic and health care market. In the cosmetics business both products are marketed worldwide by Merck KGaA (Darmstadt).
