Microbial cleaning products, past, present and future

The talk will explore the evolution of probiotic cleaning products, from their early microbial-based origins to today’s scientifically advanced, eco-friendly formulations. We will examine how probiotic cleaners work, their advantages over conventional disinfectants, and their role in reducing chemical use, combating antimicrobial resistance, and supporting sustainability initiatives like Net Zero. Looking ahead, we’ll discuss emerging innovations in biotechnology and microbial ecosystems, potential applications in healthcare and food safety, and the regulatory and adoption challenges shaping the future of probiotic cleaning.
