Throughout the summer, we have imagined a disruptive product that we believe will be a step forward for solving malnutrition.

We repurposed fermentation for creating nutrionally enhanced food

  • We created an modified strain of E. coli that produces vitamin B2 to high levels, and built a vector for allowing Lactococcus, an endogenous micro-organism of idli, to produce the vitamin as well.
    Read more...
  • We measured the overproduction of vitamin A by an engineered strain of S. cerevisiae, and showed that this does not significantly impair its growth. We demonstrated that backslopping of engineered strains is possible.

  • We re-engineered the microbiome of traditional Indian dishes, and proved that an exogenous organism with high vitamin production can be introduced in idli.

  • We proved the safety of our product by proving that no micro-organism survives cooking, bringing new opportunities to the GMO debate.
