Dr. Brill Regulatory Services supports the Hydrotox
Dr. Brill Regulatory Service GmbH was recently integrated into the Dr. Brill Institutes. This also opens up new perspectives and synergy effects for Hydrotox.
With a real “dream team”, the Dr. Brill Institutes will in future offer customers from the industry their own regulatory service. Heike Schimmelpfennig and Dr. Gunnar Kleist, each with two decades of regulatory experience in different areas of industry and public authorities, offer a 360-degree view of chemical testing and approval of biocides (active substances and products). In conjunction with the GLP laboratory at Hydrotox, this also opens up new perspectives in the planning of tests and the evaluation of results. Further information can be found at Dr. Brill Regulatory Services GmbH.

Generational change at Hydrotox
We have the pleasure informing you that 35 years after establishing of Hydrotox – Laboratory for Ecotoxicology and Water Protection GmbH, Dr. Stefan Gartiser will retire. The business handover was carefully prepared and completed in January 2024, when Hydrotox GmbH was acquired by Dr. Brill Institutes Group based in Hamburg. The new managing director of Hydrotox GmbH is Dr. Florian H. H. Brill. Your local contact at Hydrotox remains Dr. Christoph Hafner, who is the representative of the local management and has been assigned with the respective power of attorney.
Thus, a new generation takes over at Hydrotox. However, you as our customer will not face apparent changes in the operational processes, as the entire Hydrotox team continues to support you in future with the usual trustworthiness at Freiburg.
The Dr. Brill Institutes Group is a medium-size, family-owned group of companies with the headquarter in Hamburg. The group consists of various laboratories such as the Institute for Hygiene and Microbiology and the Institute for Antifouling and Biocorrosion and employs around 70 people at various locations in Germany. By integrating Hydrotox, synergy effects are released by optimizing and streamlining processes. In addition, the Dr. Brill Institutes Group offers its customers an expanded product portfolio from a wide range of laboratory services to regulatory consulting services in the new Dr. Brill Regulatory Services GmbH. For more information, visit www.brillinstitutes.com.
We look forward continuing our successful cooperation in the future.

Great 9th CAHMV 2023 - 10th anniversary edition this year!
The 9th Conference of Applied Hygiene, Microbiology and Virology last November was once again a great success, and again attracted international attention. Almost 100 people from 16 countries took part - some online, but the majority in person on site. Both days were characterized by lively exchanges and discussions on the presentations and intensive networking during the breaks. Of course, the Keynote Lectures by Leslie Rachel, MSc, USA, Professor Dr. Kurt-Wilhelm Stahl, Freiburg and Dr. Florian H. H. Brill were of particular interest. Another highlight was the first-time cooperation with our partner BioGenius, who contributed a highly interesting session on the topic of regulatory. The event was rounded off with a visit to a wonderful winter Christmas market and a merry dinner on the Alster.
Save the Date: Celebrate with us this year's big anniversary CAHMV, the 10th edition of our conference! On 28 + 29 November 2024, we would like to welcome you again together with BioGenius at the AMERON Hamburg Hotel Speicherstadt for the 10th CAHMV 2024, as well as for a maritime evening program.
