Biocatalysts has developed the tools and expertise to rapidly and cost effectively discover, develop and manufacture novel enzymes for our customers, taking them from an enzyme that exists as a concept on a database or mined from our metagenomics library, through to producing large scale commercial quantities of stable enzymes.
