This process, which has been central to the production of foods like yoghurt and bread for thousands of years, involves harnessing microorganisms. However, Vivici is combining this age-old process with modern biotechnology to teach these microorganisms to produce dairy proteins. This approach not only ensures the sustainability of the process but also ensures a consistent production of proteins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unlocking the potential of Beta-lactoglobulin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beta-lactoglobulin (BLG), the protein at the heart of Vivici&#8217;s mission, has a host of desirable properties. Its nutritional superiority to most proteins makes it an excellent addition to numerous food and beverage applications. Furthermore, its gelling, foaming, and emulsification properties play a critical role in enhancing the texture and mouthfeel of various food products. The scaling up of the production process of this versatile ingredient represents a significant milestone for the company, as it brings them closer to their goal of supplying more sustainable whey offerings and improved animal-free consumer products.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"vlp-link-container vlp-layout-basic wp-block-visual-link-preview-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/innovationorigins.com\/en\/precision-fermentation-the-future-of-our-food-system\/\" class=\"vlp-link\" title=\"Precision fermentation: the future of our food system?\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><div class=\"vlp-layout-zone-side\"><div class=\"vlp-block-2 vlp-link-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationorigins.com\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/OIG-3.jpeg\" style=\"max-width: 150px; max-height: 150px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vlp-layout-zone-main\"><div class=\"vlp-block-0 vlp-link-title\">Precision fermentation: the future of our food system?<\/div><div class=\"vlp-block-1 vlp-link-summary\">According to many, precision fermentation can disrupt the food system as we know it, cutting emissions, land, and freshwater use. But what is it?<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On track for 2024 launch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Vivici&#8217;s successful scale-up of its BLG process marks a notable achievement in the company&#8217;s trajectory. The company is on track to further scale up production in 2024 and bring its first product to market. The precision fermentation industry is expected to develop and strengthen significantly in 2024, and Vivici is eagerly anticipating the launch of more products containing precision fermented dairy proteins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vivici was founded by DSM and Fonterra and leverages their decades of experience in developing and scaling bioprocesses. They also benefit from world-leading knowledge in the isolation and application of dairy proteins. Their backing by these industry leaders provides them with a strong foundation and the resources to innovate and grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking ahead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Vivici is poised to play a significant role in the projected growth of the precision fermentation industry. Despite the high cost of production for fermentation-derived proteins, Vivici is confidently moving forward, spurred by the support of its investors and the potential of precision fermentation. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dutch company Vivici is set to revolutionise the food and beverage industry with its ground-breaking animal-free protein.
