"We make high-value proteins by skipping the first 99% of the plant's lifetime. That's how we go 100x faster."
Plants are 62.5X more efficient than animals at producing proteins
There’s two general concerns around molecular farming, where animal proteins are grown in field crops. First, the extraction and purification. Second, the regulatory landscape for transgenic crops amidst other farmland.
Veloz Bio doesn’t use the farm. And the founders are experts at extraction and membrane purification. Without the need of bioreactors, they can develop and scale up new protein production in less than 6 months.
