Project Description
TriptoBIO
TriptoBIO applies cutting-edge synthetic biology techniques to produce classes of plant compounds known as di– and tetraterpenoids via fermentation. This will enable novel applications of plant compounds and revolutionise a range of industries, while avoiding intensive farming and the use of petrochemicals.
Their proprietary technology is based on groundbreaking research from the University of Copenhagen and allows them to sustainably produce unique, high-value diterpenoids from the plant Tripterygium wilfordii. Currently, these compounds are only accessible in tiny amounts by harvesting the plant.
TriptoBIO joined NOME in 2023.
