Cyano Biotech GmbH is the worldwide leading company in applied R&D on microalgae. The company's business is aligned with the diverse microalgae-based products and applications. Transferring the know-how gained in almost 30 years of academic research, the company's focus on the group of blue-green algae (representing cyanobacteria) is a worldwide unique approach. The company's business is specialized on the discovery and development of cyanobacterial natural products for the pharmaceutical industry but also the chemical, food and cosmetic industry. The relative disregard of cyanobacteria in the past compared to other sources of natural products as well as the huge diversity and biological activity of their natural products make them an attractive source for many industrial products and applications today. Using Cyano Biotech's strain collection, the company identifies novel lead structures, optimizes their biological activities towards the respective needs by proprietary techniques and finally generates recombinant producer strains delivering high yields of the target compound. Beside its own drug discovery program, Cyano Biotech collaborates with international pharmaceutical, agrochemical and life science companies.
