AmerStem has state-of-the-art laboratory facilities focusing on green biotechnologies for vaccine adjuvants, agriculture, health, and medicine applications. AmerStem develops planet-friendly solutions and applies its unique green technology platform across a wide variety of plant species. We use solid principles rooted in our scientific observations that relate to growth behavior, biochemistry, metabolism and function of each specific target plant species to optimize production of high value bioactives.
We process biomass to extract high value bioactives while minimizing collateral hazardous waste. We care about the long-term negative effects of pollutants on soil, sediment, groundwater & surface water.
Our focus is on the natural mechanisms that plants use to fend off pests and environmental insults. We learn these important lessons and apply them to develop innovative sources of bioactives with applications in vaccine adjuvants, crop protection, and pharmaceuticals (therapeutic proteins).
