About
Protein Manufacturing and Biologic Drug Purification Platform
BioBetter has developed a cost-effective, plant-based protein expression platform to produce complex growth factors for use in cellular agriculture. The company’s technology is designed to overcome the limitations of traditional methods, placing the cost of growth factor production at under $1 per gram.
By using tobacco plants grown in open fields as self-sustained, renewable energy-driven bioreactors in concert with a novel purification method, the company’s technology enables the production of complex proteins at an exceptional scale.
Biobetter’s technology is based on research conducted in the lab of Professor Oded Shoseyov at the Hebrew University.
