In Vitro Natural Substance Research
One of the company's first operational directions was natural substance research. Other directions were developed later and are complementary, enhancing the company's overall research and development capacity. While developing new functional food products, the company faced challenges related to specific substance availability and insufficient research volume and reliability, crucial for expected mechanisms and effects during product development. Currently, the company performs various bioactive natural...Read more

Experimental Development in Biotechnology An additional company focus is biotechnology development. For over 12 years, the company has invested in development and research to create a technical base for in vitro eukaryotic cell propagation using automated systems and developing cell propagation technological processes. This base created three sub-directions: obtaining bioactive substances released during cell cultivation and accumulated in cultivation medium; large-scale cell propagation for...Read more
Extraction of Biologically Active Substances from Fungi
Fungi are rich sources of bioactive substances providing valuable compounds with various health-restoring properties. The most common methods for extracting these substances are various solvent extractions, such as ethanol, methanol, or hot water. Polysaccharides, especially beta-glucans with immune-stimulating properties, are most commonly extracted from fungi. These substances are typically extracted using hot water, followed by purification using ethanol precipitation or chromatographic methods. In addition...Read more
Extraction of Biologically Active Substances from Microorganisms
Schizochytrium sp. genus consists of microscopic algae known for their extremely high docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content - up to 49% of total lipids. These heterotrophic algae can grow rapidly under controlled conditions using various carbon sources, thus providing efficient and sustainable production of long-chain (omega-3) fatty acids. Due to their unique biochemical properties, Schizochytrium has become an important industrial microorganism for DHA production, offering...Read more
