Amerstem has developed PhytoStemix™, a unique technology that answers the demand for large-scale plant biomass growth with minimum resource depletion and creates novel eco-sustainable plant sources to address unmet needs in nutrition, health, crop protection, and personal care. This is a green technology platform that saves energy, water and land resources, while preserving high-value flora with minimal waste production. Thus, the eco-sustainability of PhytoStemix allows significant expansion of high-value plant biomass while preserving plant species in their natural ecological niches.
We have developed a novel approach to HR cultures encompassing innovations not only in the design of the bioreactors, but also in the hairy root induction process, the culture and environmental conditions, and perhaps most importantly, a proprietary method to stimulate continuous growth of hairy root biomass in an ageotropic fashion, i.e., in every possible direction and not dominated by Earth’s gravity, thereby resulting in maximal biomass accretion.
Maximizing plant potential
We are continuously expanding the enormous potential that plants offer by developing state-of-the-art research and technology tools needed for next-generation agricultural, pharmaceutical, crop protection, and personal care products.
Protecting our planet
Our technologies are designed with a view to dramatically reduce the requirements for land and water compared to traditional agriculture. Our solutions are not only more energy-efficient but also more economic.
Keeping our planet clean
Our R&D platform focuses on green technologies that minimize use of organic solvent and waste disposal costs. We develop biomass expansion technologies with negligible carbon footprint.
