Bioconversion, also known as biotransformation, is the conversion of organic materials into usable products via one or more enzymes. In other words, it is a chemical transformation catalyzed by enzymes.
Biotransformation is milder and more efficient than traditional chemical reactions. Generally, the transformation process is carried out under aqueous solution at room temperature. The stereoselectivity and transformation efficiency reaches over 99% in most cases. Therefore, the whole process is comparable to the material metabolism in biological cells, with few by-products, a high atomic economy, and decreased discharge of the three wastes in the industrial production process.
Our multifunctional platform is capable of exploring kinetics and thermodynamics for biocatalytic reactions, developing enzyme purification procedures, and characterizing the properties of liquid enzymes, immobilized enzymes, immobilized whole cells, and other materials. Our one-stop framework facilitates an entire range of experiments from life science to industrial usage. Including, but not limited to conducting pilot plant runs, assessing effects of scale-up, designing well-proven and accurate SOP, identifying the physical and chemical properties of products, and evaluating the equipment's compatibility to specific reactions.
Our highly efficient R&D creates and sustains a competitive advantage. With the rise of this new era, enzymes have empowered us with their potential towards reducing or eliminating petrochemical use, industrial wastes, while simplifying unit operations in the production process. We strive for a better future with the development of green chemistry, green manufacturing, and green industries.
