Der Biokatalyse kommt vor allem bei der Etablierung nachhaltiger Wirtschaftsweisen eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Immer mehr Innovationen der Weißen Biotechnologie werden bereits von der Chemie-, Pharma- und Lebensmittelindustrie angewandt oder in zukünftige strategische Planungen einbezogen.

Wir wollen für Ihre Ideen im Bereich Biokatalyse „enzymatisch“ wirken und die von Ihnen nötige Aktivierungsenergie für neue Projekte minimieren. Vertrauen Sie auf unsere Kompetenz und Erfahrung in der Herstellung von Enzymen in unterschiedlichen Maßstäben und unser Know-How in der Prozessentwicklung und -optimierung.

We offer you the best service

Contract manufacturing

We bring the biocatalysts, developed by our customers for industrial use, to large-scale production and guarantee the supply of the product - at the right time. The available technical equipment and production capacity enables us to respond quickly to the frequent product changes that occur in contract manufacturing.

Process development

Do you need process development or process step optimisation in addition to full-scale production?

The R&D laboratories and the pilot plant, a scaled-down copy of the production plant, can be used to carry out research projects and process development.

The pilot plant allows small quantities (up to 500 litres) to be produced for test purposes and to gain important insights for subsequent scale-ups.

Quality assurance

https://a.storyblok.com/f/287965/240x241/c68c263093/qualitaetskontrolle.svg

Quality assurance

To ensure the most consistent quality possible, regular analytical checks are carried out on the batches produced. Each production batch is carefully monitored throughout the process. Depending on the specification, further microbiological analysis and activity checks done before the finished product is released. This also ensures compliance with our strict quality system.

Our Biotech technologies

Fermentation

Lactosan has three complete fermentation lines which are controlled by a process control system and can be fully sterilised.

Production

  • 4 media tanks

  • 5000l, 1000l fermentation pre-stage

  • 2 x 15000l fermentation main stage

Pilot plant

  • 16l fermentation pre-stage

  • 700l, 300l, 150l fermentation main stage

Learn more

Separation

Fermentation is followed by a concentration step using a separator.

Production

  • 10000 l/h separation

Pilot plant

  • 100 l/h separation

Learn more

Homogenisation

In the homogenisation step, the biomass is broken down and the enzymes are released. 

Production

  • 2 x 1000 l/1000 bar homogenisation

Pilot plant

  • 120 l/1000 bar homogenisation

Learn more

Precipitation

In order to increase the purity of the enzyme product or to improve subsequent filtration steps, it is possible to integrate a precipitation step into the production process.

Learn more

Concentration

In the enzyme production process, ultrafiltration and diafiltration systems are used to concentrate the product and for buffer exchange respectively.

Production

  • 400 l/min crossflow ultra/diafiltration

Pilot-Plant

  • 60 l/min crossflow ultra/diafiltration

Learn more

DNA-depletion

DNA depletion is another optional step in the enzyme production process to increase the purity of the product.

Learn more

Filtration techniques

The  filtration system allows to remove the production organism or components thereof in the product, at the customer's request.

Learn more

Freeze drying

The aim of freeze-drying is to obtain a dried, very water-soluble product that retains the properties of the original product after the addition of water.

Production

  • 1000 l/batch freeze-drying

Pilot-Plant

  • 60 l/batch freeze-drying

Learn more

Grinding

After drying, further processing takes place in the respective powder line. The product flakes dried by lyophilisation are crushed in mills.

Learn more

Mixing

After the drying and milling process, the powder is processed on the relevant powder line and the final product is mixed according to specification.

Learn more

Packaging

After processing in the respective powder line, the dried powder is filled according to customer's requirements.

Filling

  • 300g to 30kg bag

Learn more

Storage

Appropriate storage is essential to ensure the stability of the finished products.
