Bioprodin is a SME plant biotech company specialized in the development and scaling of new processes for production and purification of proteins (industrial, nutraceutial and therapeutic proteins) and other biomolecules from plant material. It is a spin-off from the University of Murcia and the Spanish Council for Scientific Research (CSIC).
Bioprodin combines the genomic and the proteomics. Bioprodin has developed a new platform for the expression of recombinant proteins in plants and develops processes for the extraction, isolation and purification of this proteins as well as the optimization for their use. The protein expression platform is based on the use of an expression vector derived from a plant virus. This technology uses biofactory plants instead of bioreactors to synthesize the proteins. The technology allows the expression of high levels of protein at low-cost, requires little infrastructure and does not affect the agroecosystem.
