RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Research shaped
around your challenge.
Work with NOVOKLON on research and development for microbial biosolutions. We connect microbial selection, formulation and process development with the needs of your application.
PARTNER RESEARCH
Build the biological approach.
Our research work supports agricultural, industrial and environmental applications, from a defined production problem to the development of a biological formulation.
Microbial selection & screening
Explore microbial candidates for the biological functions and production conditions your project needs to address.
Formulation development
Develop biological formulations around the intended crop, species, environment or industrial application.
Process development & scale-up
Connect formulation work with process optimisation and a route towards manufacturing when production is part of the agreed project.
A CLEAR DEVELOPMENT BRIEF
Start with the question.
Define the work together.
01
Define the objective
Describe the problem, intended use and performance question. Agree the development scope and what will be evaluated.
02
Develop the biology
Use microbial screening and formulation development to build an approach around the application.
03
Refine the process
Develop and optimise the process with the required product format and production needs in view.
04
Plan evaluation & progression
Agree how the work will be evaluated and the next development stage, including a route to manufacturing where relevant.
CONNECTED CAPABILITIES
Research with a route
to practical use.
A research project shaped to your needs
Discuss the development question and the work required before setting the project scope. The starting point may be a farm challenge, a proposed product or an industrial biological application.
A route into OEM manufacturing
Our Manufacturing Alliance brings research, formulation, scale-up, manufacturing and quality assurance together. Within that programme, partners lead field validation, regulatory registration and commercialisation.
Microbes Bank
A collection of more than 400 distinct wild-type microbial strains, including bacteria, yeast and fungi, supports microbial development.
Forgebiome
Microbial and formulation knowledge connect with field performance to inform subsequent development.
Bioreactors
Submerged and solid-state capabilities support the development and manufacture of liquid and dry products.
PREPARE YOUR RESEARCH ENQUIRY
Give the project
a useful starting point.
- The biological challenge and intended application.
- Your crop, species, production system or target market.
- The desired product format and relevant specifications.
- The question you want evaluated and the development stage you have reached.
Tell us about any practical constraints or target dates so the team can discuss a suitable scope.
