A NEW YEAST-BASED NUTRIENT PROTOTYPE DESIGNED
TO INCREASE HYALURONIC ACID INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION YIELD

[SCIENTIFIC POSTER]

Hyaluronic acid has been extracted from roosted-comb and other human or animal tissues. Since 1980, however, it is mainly produced by fermentation with the bacteria Streptococcus zooepidemicus being the most prevalent. Streptococcus sp. possesses fastidious nutrient requirements with respect, for instance, to organic nitrogen.

The selection of the suitable nitrogen source to be utilized in the culture medium is indeed critical to ensure maximized yields and purity during industrial process while reducing the overall manufacturing cost of goods (COGS).
