        In 1943, the engineer Bertold Suhner founded <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm</span> - a swiss company that first entered the market by building technical instrumentation such as radios, oscilloscopes and phameters. During its history, <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm</span> was always a pioneer in developing important laboratory tools, such as the first piston burettes, in 1956; and the first automatic polarographic device in 1954; among others products. In 1987, <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm</span> entered the ion analysis area and, nowadays, it is the only company in the world that develops all the main technologies in this field, becoming a worldwide reference. In early 2000s, <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm</span> developed a partnership with Pensalab, a Brazilian company founded in 1996. After 5 years, a joint-venture created <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm Pensalab</span>, a company that provides services and solutions in laboratory and processes. Since 2010, <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm Pensalab</span> is a reference for all Latin America for <span class="TextoVerde">Metrohm</span> products and solutions.<br /><br />

Studies on development in the <span class="TextoVerde">Molecular Biophysics research Group</span> are trying to interpret molecular structures due to interactions in different bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. Electronic spectroscopy, circular dichroism, fluorescence, FT-IR, EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) allow monitoring conformational changes of biomolecules in the presence of ligands, chemical or physical agents, action of different organic solvents, and molecular mechanisms involved in functional processes and denaturation and refolding of proteins. Our team used its infrastructure to perform Molecular Biology experiments.
