CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CB Therapeutics (the “Company”), a frontrunner in biotechnology and precision fermentation, announces a monumental stride towards sustainability with the introduction of natural food and product colors, coupled with potent antioxidants. This innovative leap not only transforms coloration and nutrition but also sets a new benchmark for environmental responsibility in the food and industrial sectors.
Harnessing the transformative potential of precision fermentation, CB Therapeutics unveils a vibrant palette of natural colors, including striking orange from carrots (β-carotene), deep purple from beets (betalains), bold red from tomatoes (lycopene), sunny yellow from marigolds (lutein), and more. The synergy of these hues offers an extensive array of colors, catering to diverse consumer demands and industrial applications.
Beyond their aesthetic allure, these natural molecules serve as vital antioxidants and nutrients, fortifying cells against harmful free radicals and bolstering overall health. The adoption of CB Therapeutics' innovative solutions not only elevates product quality but also reinforces a commitment to consumer well-being and environmental stewardship, emphasized Sher Ali Butt, Co-Founder and CEO of CB Therapeutics.
Jacob Vogan, Co-Founder and CSO of CB Therapeutics, added that “in stark contrast to conventional methods, which often entail exorbitant costs, lengthy processes, and yield significant environmental repercussions, precision fermentation offers a sustainable and efficient alternative. By utilizing precision fermentation, CB Therapeutics significantly reduces carbon emissions, with estimates suggesting a reduction of metric tons of CO2 annually compared to traditional color production methods.”
CB Therapeutics is now looking to collaborate with partners in need of these sustainable colors. Interested companies should reach out to our CEO at sher@cbthera.com.
