Plant Advanced Technologies has announced the creation of its 100 percent owned subsidiary Cellengo, after important breakthroughs in the development of plant active ingredients achieved through microbial synthesis.
Industrializes Biomolecules Production
PAT has decided to regroup and bring its activities to a dedicated operator with an ambition of becoming a key player in the Metabolic Engineering domain to industrialize the production of biomolecules from this platform.
The new active ingredients which natural biosynthetic pathways have been elucidated will be produced by Cellengo using industrial fermentation technologies. The subsidiary will target cosmetic, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and bio-pesticides markets.
Subsidiary to Target Cosmetic Market
PAT currently proposes products developed through its PAT Plant Milking® technology to its clients, a platform making available natural active ingredients from roots. The Metabolic Engineering technologies established by Cellengo will extend PAT’s offer, especially for natural molecules present in traces in plants.
The company will chase the same sustainable objectives as PAT using eco-responsible platforms, respecting the Principles of Green Chemistry, enabling to preserve plants in their natural environment and avoiding uses of agricultural lands for non-alimentary productions.
