DEVELOPMENT OF “AMORA” BIOPROCESS PLATFORM
Ingenza has been awarded a second SMART:SCOTLAND award to further enhance its proprietary biocatalysis technology. Ingenza Ltd will use the SMART:SCOTLAND Award to develop “AMORA”, a new biocatalytic platform technology to prepare enantiopure chemical compounds, specifically amines and amino acids, for the pharmaceutical, agrochemical and fine chemical industries. The AMORA bioprocess offers a highly efficient, more general and environmentally cleaner manufacturing route than conventional synthetic chemical methods.
