Precision fermentation is an advanced biotechnology process that uses microorganisms such as yeast, fungi, or bacteria to produce specific functional ingredients, including proteins, enzymes, fats, and bioactive compounds. By programming microbes at the genetic level, this technology enables the sustainable and scalable production of ingredients traditionally derived from animals or petrochemical processes. Precision fermentation is gaining significant traction across industries such as food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial biotechnology due to its ability to reduce environmental impact, enhance supply chain efficiency, and meet growing demand for sustainable alternatives.
