Enzyme Discovery:
Enzyme discovery is the process of identifying a promising enzyme to catalyse a specific reaction. Traditionally most of the industries use toxic metal catalysts, high temperature and volatile organic solvents in chemical manufacturing. During this process a lot of harmful chemical waste is generated which in turn affects the environment. Enzyme based Biocatalyst are being increasingly employed to improve and streamline chemical syntheses, increasing the demand for new and enhanced enzymes for application in these processes. As a result, novel enzymes continue to be discovered, from a wide variety of sources using different discovery methods. After a novel enzyme is discovered it is validated by performing wet lab experiments followed by analytical methods.
Enzyme Engineering:
An important aspect of enzyme discovery is that the discovered enzyme may not fulfil the process requirements and need further refinement for industrial scale production. It is imperative that the discovered enzyme may have some inadequacies such as substrate/product inhibition, low stability or low activity which may limit the use of enzyme in industries. Enzyme engineering can thus be used as an approach which can tailor the enzymes for specific reactions.
Wet Lab Validation:
As part of our enzyme discovery work once an enzyme is identified it is validated in lab. Novel enzyme discovery involves measurement of an enzyme activity on the desired substrate using whole cell or cell free based methodology. It looks elementary but involves significant need of skilled resources in the assay development and analysis to validate the activity of the discovered enzyme. Quantumzyme takes care of that with a seamless experience of validating the discovered or engineered enzyme.
Process Development:
Process development aims to improve the pre-existing production process or develop a new biocatalytic process to meet the manufacturing specifications. Quantumzyme ensures the optimization of processes takes place efficiently to allow the development of commercially viable products by meticulously establishing and implementing assay developments with the downstream processes in view. This ensures that our customers receive the best quality product in the industry at an affordable price.
