Focus: Devel­op­ment and usage of tran­sient expres­sion sys­tems in whole green plants for pro­duc­tion of recom­bi­nant pro­teins for phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal and diag­nos­tic appli­ca­tions.

Employees:

Our team is com­posed of pro­fes­sion­als with exper­tise in mol­e­c­u­lar biol­o­gy, bio­chem­istry, biotech­nol­o­gy and up- and down-stream pro­cess­ing. The employ­ees are grouped into small effi­cient teams deal­ing with research and devel­op­ment, man­u­fac­tur­ing, qual­i­ty con­trol and qual­i­ty assur­ance.

Vision and goals:

To pro­vide the best tech­nol­o­gy plat­form for plant-based pro­duc­tion of bio­phar­ma­ceu­ti­cals and diag­nos­tic reagents to our cus­tomers and part­ners.
To con­stant­ly expand our tech­nol­o­gy, prod­uct port­fo­lio and man­u­fac­tur­ing capac­i­ty; to adapt to the flex­i­bil­i­ty, demand, and prod­uct qual­i­ty spec­i­fied by our cus­tomers and part­ners.
To ful­fill the high­est required stan­dards for pro­duc­tion under con­trolled con­di­tions in accor­dance with Ger­man and inter­na­tion­al reg­u­la­tions.

Intellectual properties:

Dom­i­nant patent port­fo­lio in the field of plant-based expres­sion sys­tems (46 patent fam­i­lies, 448 grant­ed patents).
