Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common inherited kidney disorders worldwide. It is characterized by the progressive formation of cysts in the kidneys, which can lead to severe complications and, ultimately, kidney failure. In the absence of curative treatments, research plays a key role in improving our understanding of the […]

France has taken a significant step forward in protecting young workers from the risks associated with ionizing radiation. Decree No. 2026-260, published in the French Official Journal (Journal Officiel) on April 10, 2026, strengthens employer obligations by establishing individual dosimetric monitoring as the new regulatory standard. What this means for employers? Under this new French […]

Derived from Ceramide, Sphingolipids are major constituents of the cellular lipid bilayer. They reflect biological activity and the functional state of cells, and are involved in essential mechanisms such as differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. As a central intermediate in their biosynthesis, ceramide plays a key role in regulating this complex lipid signaling pathway. Understanding the […]

On January 21, CNES in Toulouse hosted the closing meeting of the CO-OP project, a major program launched in 2021 as part of France Relance. Over five years, this consortium brought together key French and European players in optical communications, CNES, Airbus, Safran, Bertin Technologies, Thales Alenia Space, as well as several research laboratories, to […]

The continued spread of African Swine Fever (ASF) across Europe represents a major threat to animal health and food security. The recent expansion of high‑risk zones in Spain, following the confirmation of more than 160 new cases in Catalonia, highlights the critical importance of surveillance and diagnostics to prevent the virus from spreading to domestic […]

Bertin Technologies is proud to continue its partnership with Thibaut Foray, a motorcycle racer and former soldier wounded in action, whose journey embodies resilience, pushing one’s limits, and dedication. Through this partnership, Bertin Technologies reaffirms its commitment to supporting men and women wounded in war, by assisting with their recovery and supporting their personal projects. […]

A recent study published in Molecular Metabolism (Batrow et al., 2025) sheds new light on the molecular mechanisms regulating lipid metabolism in brown adipose tissue (BAT). Using a conditional knockout mouse model with specific PPARα deletion in brown adipocytes (PPARαBATKO), researchers uncovered a previously unrecognized regulatory crosstalk between PPARα and ChREBPβ-driven de novo lipogenesis, with […]

Surface sampling has long been a cornerstone of environmental monitoring, but it has limits. Pathogens, genetic material, and microbial contaminants circulate in the air and routinely escape swab-based protocols entirely. In environments where airborne transmission is a key variable, a monitoring strategy that stops at surfaces leaves a critical gap. The Coriolis® Compact was developed to close […]

When studying a disease with no cure, every sample counts. Researchers at Yale University share how they ensure their RNA is always RNA-Seq ready. A disease that affects 12 million people — and no treatment yet Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common inherited kidney disorders worldwide. Fluid-filled cysts progressively […]

From February 16 to 19, 2026, Bertin Nuclear will be present at the EURADOS Annual Meeting in Helsinki, a key event for professionals in dosimetry, radiation protection, and radiation monitoring. At booth 6, explore our comprehensive portfolio of solutions addressing the critical challenges discussed throughout the event: environmental radiation monitoring, radon measurement, and contamination control.
