We have massive news: 21st.BIO has obtained self-affirmed GRAS status for our beta-lactoglobulin ingredient, BLG Essential+™. This means our customers can now enter the U.S. market with their own production using our precision fermentation technology.    This breakthrough comes less than two years after we first initiated our development of beta-lactoglobulin. It’s concrete proof of the value and support we offer our customers to bring products to market, at an unprecedented pace.     While it is a major milestone for 21st.BIO, it is also huge news for the entire industry. For the first time, one market approval means multiple market entries for an alternative protein.     The predominant protein in bovine whey, beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) has attracted considerable food-producer interest for its high-quality nutrition and advantageous properties in food product formulation. ✅ Boasting a larger amount of essential and branched-chain amino acids than whey, BLG Essential+™ contains 45% more leucine than commercially available whey protein isolates, which is particularly important for muscle synthesis. ✅ It is tasteless, stable across a wide pH range and can tolerate heat, making it the ideal ingredient for versatile product formulations, from clear protein drinks to alternative dairy products or even baked goods.   Our business model is unique and it allows more players in the market to access our production technology and scale it for their own functionality and purpose.     Massive shout-out to our fantastic team who worked so hard to make it happen. And of course, big congrats to our customers who can now commercialize their production in the U.S. market.    Read our press release: https://lnkd.in/era8fwCq   #Food #Bioproduction #AlternativeProteins

What if one company took upon them to make the leading technology to produce the most important nutritious proteins to feed the world at scale, sustainably 🍀. And what if that same player offered it broadly to the market to be produced at industrial scale by several players in the food industry for them to include it in great food applications across the globe. And what if that was already happening 🚀 . Please see the fantastic news that customers of 21st.BIO can now enter the U.S. market with their own production of the dairy protein, beta-lactoglobulin (BLG), using 21st.BIO precision fermentation technology. What a journey to be part of - go go 21st.BIO team. You are world class 🌏. (By the way: Sounds like what happened when someone decided to make chips for computers and offered that to broadly to the computer industry. just saying... )

It has been an exciting week for the precision fermentation companies in our portfolio, with announcements from both All G and Onego Bio.    Only weeks after regulatory approval for the sale of recombinant bovine lactoferrin in China, Australia based All G has now received approval for sale in the US as well. The approval covers applications of the high value protein in adult nutrition, making them the first company in the world to have approval for precision fermentation lactoferrin in two countries. Entry into the US market is planned for the second half of 2025.   Onego Bio also just announced it has now filed for FDA GRAS, which will show that Bioalbumen® meets the FDAs safety standards for its use as a drop in alternative to eggs in products such as baked goods, pasta and ready-made meals. The Finnish-U.S company’s protein is bioidentical to its conventionally produced counterpart ovalbumin which is found in chicken egg and known for its high nutritional value and functional properties including binding, foaming and emulsifying.    This is exciting progress in the precision fermentation sector and shows market entry is just around the corner. We are looking forward to seeing the progress that will be made by both companies, and the rest of the portfolio, in the upcoming year.  You can read more about each announcement here - All G: https://lnkd.in/eGeru2RH Onego Bio: https://lnkd.in/drUmDCM5

Regulatory update for sports and active nutrition businesses 👇 - With a new regulation, the European Commission has modified the conditions of use of specific #additives i.e. tartaric acid, sodium, potassium and calcium tartrates, which can now be specifically regulated depending on food categories, for example, for #foodsupplements and #flavoureddrinks. - The Commission has also recommended establishing numerical maximum use levels for the food additives. ❗The Regulation will come into force on 16/12/2024. Foods containing those additives that do not comply with the Regulation, and have been placed on the market before that date, may remain on the market until their ‘use-by-date’.
