One of the puzzles of modern physics is the striking imbalance of matter and antimatter observed in our universe. The Standard Model of particle physics and cosmology struggle to find a satisfying explanation for the lack of antimatter in our universe. This fact inspires to test the most fundamental discrete symmetry of the Standard Model, the CPT symmetry, by comparing the fundamental properties of protons and antiprotons at low energy and with highest precision. I will present the results obtained by the BASE collaboration: a high-precision measurement of the antiproton charge-to-mass ratio with 69 ppt relative uncertainty, and results obtained on the way to a direct high-precision measurement of the antiproton magnetic moment.
