Formo is a startup focusing on creating animal-free cheese through precision fermentation. The process utilizes koji, a fungus traditionally found in fermented foods like soy sauce and miso. Precision fermentation, the cornerstone of Formo’s approach, requires significantly less energy and fewer resources than conventional dairy farming.
Kalion, Inc., and MIT have developed a microbial fermentation process for the production of glucaric acid. Using a novel biosynthetic pathway, Kalion converts myo-inositol to glucaric acid at nearly 100% yield. Conventional production of glucaric acid is harsh, toxic, and non-selective. Glucaric acid can potentially replace environmentally polluting chemicals, such as phosphate, as a biodegradable, non-toxic, and sugar-derived alternative. This fermentation process produces high-purity, low-cost glucaric acid.
