Bioextrax - Organic Hydrolyzed Protein
As a co-product from the production of the bio-based and bio-degradable polymer PHA, Bioextrax’s hydrolyzed cell protein is a sustainable alternative to protein sources such as fishmeal and soy.
Bioextrax has a patented solution for the production of PHAs. Amongst the unique features, we obtain a co-product in the form of hydrolyzed bacterial cell walls.
As PHAs are produced intracellularly by the bacteria, a method is needed to extract the PHA granules.
Bioextrax’s method utilizes microbes to hydrolyzes the PHA-producing bacterium’s cell walls. These cell walls become highly digestible, nutritional, and amino acid-rich soluble hydrolysate which is a protein source alternative, applicable in e.g. feed applications.
We are happy to share a more in-depth material profile.
