Cocoon’s Recombinant Growth Factors are produced using CrisBio® patented technology, allowing a rapid and efficient solution to address increased demand, achieve cost-effective and high-performance non-GMO, and mammalian-free recombinant proteins.

We have developed two main categories of products which leverage our CrisBio® platform: Growth Factors and Specialty Enzymes.

We can achieve a cost point significantly lower than traditional methods with high quality standards and without asking for a minimum order quantity (MOQ) which doesn’t align with your business needs.

Cultivated Meat 

Growth Factors

FGF2
  • Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor; ~20% of media cost

Alternative enzymes

Specialty enzymes

Todays problem

The main problem to be solved by the cultured meat industry is the cost of the culture medium, where growth factors can be up to 80% of that cost.

Todays problem

Production of new enzymes under GMP conditions is uncertain, costly, and time-consuming. Several enzymes, like those modifying nucleic acids, are difficult to express actively and at times require intense R&D with uncertain success.

Cocoon Solution

Through our technology we can produce growth factors at an exceptionally low cost that cannot be achieved with traditional protein production systems.

COCOON SOLUTION

Cocoon’s platform enables very cost-effective and linearly scalable GMP production. As a eukaryotic multi-cellular system, it is quite easy to produce any type of enzyme

Services

Cocoon Bioscience offers a convenient, cost-effective and efficient path to generate recombinant proteins with high commercial value for our clients interested in customized projects.
