About Us
Lighthouse Life Sciences is the leader in improving cleaning and disinfecting processes for greater efficiency, a safer vivarium and laboratory environment, and improved research outcomes.
We are dedicated to improving the reliability of your biomedical research, increasing the welfare of your laboratory animals, and protecting the health of your researchers and lab technicians.
The safety and well-being of laboratory animals and laboratory technicians is jeopardized by the presence of unwanted pathogens that can lead to infection. We strive to eliminate and remove the pathogens that cause disease and outbreak. We accomplish this through our platform of best-in-class cleaning and disinfecting technologies and processes.
Our team is comprised of individuals who either have extensive experience in the operation and challenges within biomedical research facilities or have a strong background in infection prevention and cleaning of high-risk facilities. The combination of talents on our team allows us to cross-pollinate in-depth knowledge from both the biomedical research industry and the broader cleaning and disinfecting industry.
We consider ourselves to be experts in the science of cleaning and disinfecting. Through Lighthouse Life Sciences and our affiliated companies, we conduct extensive primary research into both cleaning and disinfecting challenges and emerging technologies. We additionally review and catalog all cleaning and disinfecting-relevant research. Finally, we have active dialog with other experts in the cleaning & disinfecting industry.
We offer our clients a specialized assessment of their facility’s cleaning and disinfecting protocols and we provide recommendations for process improvement. Our team of specialists then conducts a thorough implementation of the agreed upon protocol changes and provides extensive training for your facility’s staff.
Our mission is to improve your cleaning and disinfecting process, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing the spread of pathogens and outbreak risk.
Our Process
Cleaning & Disinfecting Assessment and Recommendations
Our C&D Assessment and Recommendations is always the first step in a successful engagement with a new customer. Our consultants conduct a walk-through of your facility and examine current C&D processes of all vivarium and research areas throughout the entire facility or campus.
We ask many questions regarding the cleaning chemistries and tools currently used such as how they are used and what the outcomes have been. We seek to understand what C&D challenges the facility is facing.
We subsequently make recommendations on how we can improve process through better technologies and improved application tools. We then set up a follow-up demonstration to show how the new process and technologies will work in your facility.
Facility Planning
After the C&D Assessment and Recommendations have been made and discussed, our Consultants develop a detailed plan for our customers. The plan specifies things such as the estimated usage of new chemistries, the new process and technology rollout plan, ROI and cost analysis, material and equipment compatibility, distribution and logistics, human and animal safety information.
Implementation & Training
Once an order is placed and delivered for use, our Consultant returns to provide full staff training and installation of equipment.
Program Success
Following our implementation training we actively engage your facility on a long-term basis. We regularly check in, are a resource for questions or concerns, and are available to ensure that the program we put in place in your facility continues to work as prescribed.
