ULTIMER™

Eliminates the use of oil and surfactants in water treatment. Polyacrylamides are used in water treatment and food production. In water treatment, polyacrylamides facilitate the removal of compounds in suspension and the segregation of the mixture. The production of these polymers generates large volumes of organic and surfactant waste (90 million pounds annually) due to the use of oils and surfactants. Nalco developed a new synthetic methodology that eliminates the need for oil and surfactants in water treatment.

FGF2-STAB® -- Growth Factors for Cultured Meat

Engineered growth factors for cultured meat production. Enantis engineers high-performance proteins and enzymes. One of their main areas of expertise is the development of cost-effective growth factors specifically designed for cultured meat production. Cultured meat is genuine meat but lab-grown by cultivating animal cells. With this process, the industry can replicate real meat's sensory and nutritional profiles while avoiding the environmental and animal welfare impacts of traditional meat production.

Oriental Yeast Company Dough Improver and Biotechnology Products

Creates products through technologies derived from yeast production and focuses on yeast-related biotechnology applications and research. Oriental Yeast Company produces recombinant enzymes, recombinant human proteins, coenzymes, and substrates to improve crop yields, develop vaccines, and also offer customized dough improvers. Customizing dough for each client allows clients to maximize food quality while lowering costs and ingredient waste. Some of Oriental Yeast Company's coenzymes are used in manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) through biocatalysis. 

NovaLipid™ and Lipozyme®

Enzymatic interesterification for producing edible fats and oils that contain no trans fatty acids. Archer Daniels Midland Company and Novozymes have created enzymatic interesterification to replace chemical interestification processes. Trans fatty acids are a strong risk factor for heart disease. Trans fatty acids are formed during the hydrogenation process and are found in high concentrations in various foods. Interesterification is the most effective way to decrease trans fat content in food without adversely manipulating it.

Sprint® Rapid Protein Analyzer

Technology that uses a protein tag that selectively binds to amino acids to measure protein concentration. The Sprint® Rapid Protein Analyzer uses iTAG® protein-tagging technology. The iTAG® solution selectively binds to three amino acids present in proteins: histidine, arginine, and lysine. The iTAG® solution is acidic and connects with the basic group of these amino acids when they come into contact. After removing the iTAG® solution through filtration, colorimetry is used to determine protein concentration.

Bio Gen Active® Scale 131 offshore

Acidic cleaning agent. Scale 131 offshore is an effective, highly concentrated acidic cleaning agent for Cleaning in Place (CIP) operations at offshore water-borne systems that is mild to users, materials, and the environment. It is classified as PLONOR (Possess Little Or No Risk to the Environment). This product is composed of biodegradable Bio Gen Active® and fruit acids. Traditional corrosion inhibitors are hazardous and negatively impact the environment. 

Synbiochem

Synthetic biology of fine and specialty chemicals for products and intermediates in drug development, agrochemistry, and sustainable bio-manufacturing. Synbiochem uses a Design-Build-Test-Learn (D/B/T/L) pipeline in their chemical production. They design novel enzymes, pathways, and chassis; build multiple pathways in host cassis using automated assembly; test and evaluate these pathways using advanced optimized ultra high-throughput (HTP) screening and analytical methods; and learn methods to inform re-design and optimization. This pipeline allows for rapid prototyping and scalability.

EziG™ -- Enzyme Immobilization

Immobilization matrix for the immobilization of enzymes. Biocatalysts allow reactions with milder and safer conditions, high regioselectivity, and enantioselectivity. Enzyme immobilizations enable the recycling of enzymes, increase process efficiency, and reduce enzyme-removal steps. It also increases selectivity, stability, and activity and restricts enzyme movements, protecting the biocatalysts from harsh conditions. This product immobilizes enzymes on the surface without losing activity, facilitating the purification of the catalyst.

CASCAT GmbnH Chemo-Ezymatic Cascade Reactions

Production of chemical commodities through chemo-enzymatic cascade reactions. These chemo-enzymatic cascade reactions use a combination of chemical and biological catalysts for the production of basic and fine chemicals. They perform screenings of different biocatalysts to find which enzymes work best for each customer and optimize the selected enzyme to maximize sustainability and minimize cost. They also obtain substrates from renewable sources.
