Moolec Science : 06.26.23 – Moolec Science Presents “Piggy Sooy”

Moolec Science Announces ‘Piggy Sooy’ Soy Platform Capable of Producing Significantly Higher Pork Protein

Luxembourg. June 26, 2023 – Moolec Science SA (NASDAQ: MLEC, “we”, “Moolec”), a science-based food ingredients company focused on the production of animal proteins in plants using molecular farming techniques, Today we announced outstanding results in meat substitutes. A program for the soy platform because the new “Piggy Sooy” produced a very large amount of pork protein.

Animal protein reached high expression levels of up to 26.6% of total soluble protein in soybean seeds, four times higher than the company’s initial forecast. Murek’s soybeans are the same pink color as pigs, so you can directly observe the results (click to access image) here). Following this achievement, the company’s soybean platform was renamed “Piggy Sooy.”

This breakthrough led Moolec to file a new patent using a new approach aimed at providing the company with a frictionless regulatory pathway going forward.

Moolec CEO and co-founder Gastón Paladini said: “Piggy Sooy represents visible, tangible evidence that Moolec’s technology has the ability to achieve significant yields for meat protein production in plants. Moolec strengthens its position as category creator, stating, “We are pioneers of molecular farming in the food industry. Our plant biology team is writing the history of the science of food and we couldn’t be more proud of them.”

Considering that plants can function as animal protein factories in a more efficient way than originally expected, this scientific milestone paves the way for molecular farming as one of the most valuable alternative techniques for producing animal proteins. is what makes it firm. The increased efficiency of this plant could improve the economics of our business model.

Moolec Science produces several meat proteins in plants as functional ingredients to improve the taste, appearance, texture and nutrition of meat substitutes. The company also emphasized that their enhanced functionality and end-uses may allow these food ingredients to be commercialized within the up to $600 billion traditional meat processing industry.

“This achievement sets a precedent for the entire scientific community aiming to achieve high levels of protein expression in seeds by molecular farming,” said Dr. Amit Dingra, Chief Scientific Officer of Moolec. He further emphasized that: “Mourek has developed a unique, successful and patentable platform for the expression of highly valuable proteins in the seeds of economically important crops such as soybeans. for a wide range of industries, including pharmaceutical, cosmetics, diagnostics, and other food industries. ”
