Custom formulation

There is no one size fit all cell culture media and feeds formulation. All cells are different and need different nutrients.

Best of both worlds

We use both science and artificial intelligence, combining established and new research with the latest algorithms.

Improve on all fronts

Our optimization approach allow for better cell growth, improved yield while maintaining CQAs in range and guaranteeing physicochemical properties. No compromise.

Key Features of Our Approach

Custom media and feed supplements composition for your cell culture using artificial intelligence and genome-scale metabolic modelling

You own it

The recipe is yours. Use it, modify it, improve it. Chose your provider or even provide it yourself.

Improve your process

Our advanced optimization technique allow for custom objectives definition. Want to improve titre while decreasing specific glycosylations? No problem!

Lab friendly

We have tweaked our algorithm to only produce formulations with good solubility and other relevant physicochemical properties

Metabolic knowledge

Our models include a holistic representation of the cell metabolism. We can use artificial intelligence while maintaining scientific common sense.

Tailor-made feeding strategy

The feed supplements come with the perfect feeding strategy, compatible with your setup, designed for your process

Limited number of experiments

We improve on all components with a number of experiments orders of magnitude lower than traditional screenings

About us

Born of academia and industry

We stand atop over 10 years of academic research at the school of science and technology of the NOVA University Lisbon. Our technology was co-developed and validated with industrial partners.
We have extensive experiences in academia, large biopharma, small biotech and service provider. We understand the reality of the different worlds and are dedicated to build bridges in-between them.
