Before I worked at Innovia, "Precision fermentation" sounded like the kind of phrase a gastropub would use to upsell its locally brewed cider.
In reality, it involves getting microorganisms to do all the complex and messy chemical steps we would otherwise get graduate chemists to figure out! This can provide exciting opportunities in so many areas as it results purer, cheaper, and more sustainable high-value molecules.
Precision fermentation can be used to make anything from enzymes, colourants, vitamins, flavours, and fats, as well as a whole array of animal-identical products, without involving an animal! Discover the benefits of precision fermentation, and why we think it’s a hot topic in food right now, at Innovia Technology's Food Hub, with Dr Aidan Craigwood and Alex Massey.
