Thanks to commercial interest in his ideas he was able to found a private lab in Paris, the Laboratoire du Bacteriophage, which manufactured at least five phage-based medicines for different types of infection, named Bacté-coli-phage, Bacté-rhino-phage, Bacté-intesti-phage, Bacté-pyo-phage and Bacté-staphy-phage – the profits of which allowed him to fund further research. (The laboratory was later acquired by French company L’Oréal.)
