Production of natural ingredients through microbial fermentation processes with engineered microbes. This company produces natural ingredients through microbial fermentation with their unique and proprietary engineered microorganisms. Their products include fermented vitamins and plant-derived bioactives. They aim to replace the chemistry and unsustainable agriculture involved in food production with biology. The concentration of active ingredients in natural sources, such as plants, is very low, resulting in a fragile, expensive, and environmentally invasive supply chain. The use of fermentation enables the scalability of hard-to-access natural products while remaining natural and renewable. Biosynthetic Selections™ is their technology that couples the growth of microorganisms to the productivity of a compound of interest, allowing millions of engineered microorganisms to be inexpensively tested in a week.
