Discover how we produce SMEY Proteins and SMEY Oils
Our approach centers on smart screening to identify the best yeast strains for high-titer, scalable production. We also use proprietary machine learning algorithms for strain development through metabolic engineering.
We harness the power of recombinant DNA technology to produce high-quality proteins in microorganisms such as yeast. Our process inserts specific genes into these host organisms, which creates cellular factories that efficiently synthesize desired proteins.
We’ve introduced innovation to oil and fat production. It begins with the discovery and isolation of unique yeast strains, which we identify through careful screening and selection. Afterwards, these specialized yeasts are cultivated under optimized conditions. This allows them to accumulate high levels of valuable oils and fats.
Our proprietary AI technology based on machine learning revolutionizes oil production from yeast by scanning databases to identify and analyze yeast strains with high oil production. It predicts oil types and yields and guids us in creating new strains with tailored oils. This accelerates development and advances sustainable oil production.
- Animal-free
ProteinsProteins we produce, like our natural and one-to-one egg white substitute, are free from animal components, allergens, and Salmonella.
- New Generation
SweetenersWe harness cultivated agriculture to ensure our protein-based, high-intensity sweeteners are a healthy alternative that still tastes great.
- Cultivated
Fats & OilsOur products replicate shea, cocoa, olive, and avocado oils, supporting palm-free labelling and offering MCT and GLA-enriched options.
