The DairyX team
DairyX is revolutionizing dairy alternatives with their innovative use of precision fermentation to create delicious casein micelles.
DairyX Foods Ltd. has made a groundbreaking leap forward in the production of authentic milk proteins without the need for cows, thanks to their precision fermentation technology. By developing a method to produce casein proteins that can self-assemble into micelles, DairyX is paving the way for dairy products like cheese and yogurt to be produced without animal involvement.
Moreover, DairyX has perfected a complementary technology to enhance the gelation of their casein micelles, a crucial advancement in the industry. The gelating micelles enable manufacturers to create firm, stretchy, and creamy dairy products using traditional processes.
Creating Cutting-Edge Casein Proteins
Recognizing consumers’ love for the taste and health benefits of dairy, DairyX focuses on optimizing the sensory profile of dairy products through their smart casein micelles. Using precision fermentation with microorganisms, particularly yeast, DairyX has developed a proprietary method to produce advanced casein proteins that efficiently organize into micelles, ensuring a superior product.
CEO Dr. Arik Ryvkin explains, “Our mission was to overcome the challenges of producing caseins through precision fermentation and elevate them to self-assemble into gelating micelles, a key component for achieving dairy-like properties in non-animal products.”
Unlike traditional animal-free dairy products that rely on additives for texture and taste, DairyX’s caseins offer identical amino acid sequences to animal-based counterparts, ensuring a genuine dairy experience without genetic modification or harmful substances.
By focusing on taste and affordability, DairyX aims to revolutionize the dairy industry by providing high-yield, cost-effective casein solutions that meet consumer demands for authentic dairy products without compromising on quality.
In an effort to reduce the environmental impact of dairy production, DairyX is dedicated to minimizing the industry’s reliance on traditional milk as a raw ingredient, promoting sustainability, animal welfare, and efficient land and water usage. Their innovative approach has garnered significant attention and investment from various entities in the food-tech sector.
