How is 
Conagen
 using biology to make the world a better place?

Conagen is making the impossible possible. We're unlocking unprecedented access to sustainable compounds which are only sparingly found in nature. Our scientists and engineers use the latest biology tools to develop high-quality, sustainable, nature-based products by precision fermentation and enzymatic bioconversion. The beauty of the technology is that it is transferable and scalable for reaching global commercialization levels. With precision fermentation, we’re able to develop natural and sustainable flavors and fragrances that can satisfy the globe of popular flavors such as a scarce vanilla or a plant-based musk without burdening valuable resources and land. In addition to making the planet a better place with our biology tools, we’re improving health and wellness consumer needs by developing sustainable ingredients for nutrition, personal care, cosmetics and beauty. Last year, Built with Biology awarded Conagen the 2021 Product of the Year award for developing nutritional ingredients for infant nutrition and adult health. We developed a human lactoferrin (without the use of cows), a non-gmo human oligosaccharide (HMOs) and a butyrate releaser. Lactoferrin is essential in infant formula. Using our biology tools, we’ve also developed a debondable adhesive hot melt glue that can help manufacturers of electronics, cars, appliances, etc. save waste.
