  3. LentiKat’s a.s.in Food Industry • LentiKat’s a.s. follows up on nine year of research and development of Lentikats Biotechnology. • Our production know-how for commercial use of our Biocatalyst and for its industrial applications is patented internationally. • Our main focus is in intensification of production processes that leads to: • higher process yields • enhanced process stability, • Increased revenue, • Reduction of environmental footprint. Biotechnologies are changing the world…

  4. Lentikats Biotechnology Unique shape of the matrix and original immobilisation procedure enables to encapsulate free enzymes or microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, fungi) inside a hydrogel porous carrier from polyvinylalcohol (PVA). The advantages of PVA matrix are: excellent physical and mechanical characteristics that result in along-term mechanical stability hardly biodegradable no toxic effects Lentikats Biocatalysts enable easy separation of enzymes or microorganisms from the bulk media and therefore can be used repeatedly. With biotechnologies to a better future…

  5. Lentikats Biotechnology Microencapsulation vs. traditional proven technology new method based on well-proven principle spherical shape – limited diffusion to the “core” lentil-like shape – no diffusion limitations „micro“ size „mili“ size – easier separation

  6. How does the Lentikats Biocatalyst work? A maximum surface in combination with the minimum volume of Lentikats Biocatalyst results in a substantial reduction of diffusion limitations associated with the transfer of substrate into the matrix and the product out of the matrix.

  7. Why polyvinylalcohol? It is an inexpensive material Encapsulation takes place under optimal, cell-sparing conditions It allows a production of hydrogel with excellent mechanical properties It does not have any side effects on fermentation It offers high capacity for the cell loading The process is stable and easy to control It is a non-toxic material Biotechnologies are changing the world…

  8. How is Lentikats Biocatalyst produced?

  9. Lentikats Biocatalysts • Biocatalyst Types for Use in Lentikats Encapsulation: • Free Cells • dead cells • viable, non growing cells • viable and growing cells • Free or Immobilised Enzymes. Lentikats Biotechnology allows to immobilise any type of enzyme • The size of Lentikats Biocatalyst pores varies depending on the size and diameter of the Biocatalyst due to: • PVA additive type (size of macromolecule) • additive concentration • biomass concentration

  10. Lentikats Biocatalysts Manufacturing Plant

  11. Laboratory Units for Encapsulation • For low-capacity production of encapsulates (especially for research purposes), a laboratory device is available

  12. What are the benefits? Matrix containing high concentration of biomass Higher yields (in comparison to conventional technologies using free biomass) Higher reaction rates Reduction of reaction tanks’ volume Operational costs savings (electricity, heat) Possibility of repeated usage Operational costs savings Enhanced resistance of modified and immobilised biomass Higher process stability Easy separation of biomass from reaction media Reduced costs for downstream processes (separation) Lower production of waste and by-products Environmentally friendly disposal

  13. ..and also… Shortening of the reaction times Much higher yieldsin comparison to conventional technologies(up to 5 – 15 % higher) Repetitive useof the Biocatalyst, easy separationfrom media (sieve separator) Higher productivityof the Biocatalyst Lower risk of contamination during the production process High stability and easy control of production process Biotechnologies are changing the world…
