CUSTOM ENZYME DEVELOPMENT
Custom enzyme development for industry.
Expression. Screening. Formulation. Scale-up.
01 / START WITH THE CHALLENGE
An enzyme is only valuable when it works where you need it. We develop around your substrate, your operating conditions and your commercial goal.
Bring a target reaction, an enzyme candidate or a process that needs to perform better. You can start at any stage.
02 / CUSTOM ENZYME DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
Choose a starting point.
We’ll build the route around your project.
Custom enzyme expression
Explore recombinant enzyme expression, host and culture conditions, soluble activity and recovery. Start with your target enzyme, sequence or existing production challenge.
A practical expression screen and an agreed route towards an active enzyme preparation.
Enzyme & application screening
Compare candidates against your real substrate and operating window. Define the assay first, then assess conversion, dose, selectivity and useful activity.
A ranked shortlist, performance data and a focused recommendation for the next experiment.
Custom enzyme formulation
Develop single-enzyme preparations or bespoke multi-enzyme blends. Evaluate liquid or powder formats around handling, compatibility and the required application.
An evaluation formulation with defined components and a plan to confirm finished-product performance.
Fermentation & scale-up
Develop media, feed and induction strategies, then plan transfer through bench, pilot and industrial production. Connect recovery and formulation to the final supply requirement.
A development plan linking process performance, production scale and ongoing supply.
YOUR STARTING POINT
You don’t need a complete specification.
Start with what you know.
03 / OUR DEVELOPMENT APPROACH
Agree the next decision.
Generate the evidence to make it.
Tell us the reaction, substrate, operating conditions and what success looks like.
Agree the development scope, assays, candidates and measurable decision points.
Optimise activity, production, formulation or integration using the trial results.
Agree preparation, specification, quantity and the route towards ongoing manufacture.
04 / INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS & NOVEL USE CASES
Selective transformations and new enzyme-enabled manufacturing routes.
↗Processing, texture, extraction and formulation development.
↗Enzyme systems for complex feedstocks and resource-recovery projects.
↗Application-specific blends, compatibility and functional performance.
↗Lipases · Transaminases · Laccases · Laminarinases · β-Glucosidases
Explore the S&T biocatalysis range ↗THINK BEYOND THE FIRST EXPERIMENT
Connect enzyme performance, recovery, formulation and supply planning from the start.
Discuss scale-up ↗Screen & learn
Transfer & validate
Plan & supply
USEFUL TO KNOW
Yes. Start with your target reaction, substrate or application. We can discuss whether candidate selection, screening or a custom production project is the most useful route.
Yes. Share the current preparation, test method and performance challenge. We can discuss application screening, dose optimisation, formulation or a production-development programme.
We can discuss a route from evaluation to production and supply. Preparation, specifications, quantities, lead times and commercial terms are agreed for each project.
Begin with a non-confidential summary of your objective. Let us know if you require an NDA before sharing detailed sequences, formulations or other proprietary information.
05 / LET’S DEFINE YOUR NEXT STEP
Tell us the challenge, the current stage and the outcome you need. We’ll discuss a practical development programme.
