Co-Products Valorization & Ingredients Development

CD Biosynsis has a professional team of scientists with a long history of providing targeted enzyme evolution and design services to researchers. EnzymoGenius™ is our state-of-the-art enzyme AI design platform that specializes in providing enzyme-based solutions for by-product valorization and ingredient production research to improve by-product utilization and ingredient productivity.

Background

Co-products refer to residual materials from diverse biological and agricultural processes in the realm of ingredient production. These materials harbor valuable components, such as proteins, bioactive compounds, or other biomolecules, offering prospects for high-value ingredient development. Co-product valorization entails the effective and sustainable utilization of these overlooked materials, curbing waste and championing resource efficiency. It adheres to circular economy principles, preventing any biological material from being discarded. Instead, all constituents find purpose in crafting ingredients for applications spanning pharmaceuticals, functional foods, and cosmetics.

Enzymes for Co-Products Valorization & Ingredients Development

Crucial to ingredient production's co-product valorization is the pivotal involvement of enzymes. As biocatalysts, enzymes showcase remarkable specificity and efficiency, driving various biochemical reactions. Their key role involves selectively breaking down intricate biomolecules into their elemental components, simplifying the extraction of desired compounds. Fundamental enzyme utilization principles include enzymatic hydrolysis, modification, and immobilization techniques. All focus on augmenting enzyme performance, stability, and the holistic sustainability of the approach.

Custom Enzyme Range

Our deliverable processing enzyme products include but are not limited to the following:

• Proteases: Catalyze the hydrolysis of proteins and peptides into smaller peptides and amino acids for the development of protein-rich ingredients. Applications in food processing include protein hydrolysis, transproteination and cross-linking.
