Develop Cost-Effective Processes

We have developed fermentation processes for hundreds of microbial strains, fine-tuning our processes to deliver high yields, fast production rates, and unmatched product profiles. We’ve managed water-soluble, oil-soluble, crystalline, liquid, intracellular, extracellular, and growth-inhibitory products. Our processes mirror large-scale manufacturing conditions, ensuring smooth scale-up, predictable results, and confidence in every strain we develop.

With experience purifying compounds across a wide range of physicochemical properties, our purification platforms speed development, reduce complexity and cost, and deliver on stringent customer specifications and consumer expectations. Sophisticated impurity identification profiling enables us to rapidly optimize purification processes and provide feedback to strain and enzyme engineers on their next round of engineering.

Combining green chemistry techniques with our biotech platform further expands the breadth and diversity of renewable molecules we can produce. With experience scaling multiple semi-synthetic products from our fermentation-based building blocks, our team is ready to collaborate on new solutions and applications.

Our extensive cost-modeling and process-modeling capabilities are powered by decades of real-world inputs from our production plants and from CMOs across the world, giving an accurate view into production costs. And our Life Cycle Analysis team uses industry accepted methods and databases to help our customers understand when biotechnology is truly the most sustainable solution.
