Lactoferrin,
on spec, on time,
on your terms.
You select the application, we program the biology to match it.
The lactoferrin supply problem
has a biological answer.
THE SITUATION TO DATE
Low levels of lactoferrin in bovine milk significantly reduce supply, impacting yield, quality, and consistency, and pushing prices well over $700/kg which excludes most products and brands from using it.
HOW WE ARE CHANGING THE STATUS QUO
De Novo's host platform and patented DSP process enables the production of nature-identical, high and consistent quality/purity lactoferrin at lower costs and higher volumes, allowing for wider and deeper adoption across key product portfolios.
You design the formulation. We program the biology to match it.
NanoFerrin™ is nature-identical bovine lactoferrin (bLf); the same protein sequence found in cow's milk, produced by precision fermentation instead of dairy extraction. The exact iron saturation, purity, and sequence identity you specified on every batch.
<10% iron.
Maximum scavenging.
Empty iron-binding pockets, with high affinity for iron and the ability to reduce microbial growth. Formulate prebiotic chews and gut-health blends without preservatives.
10–15% iron.
Breast-milk equivalent.
The saturation profile that matches human breast milk on your COA. The infant formula category's gatekeeper spec, available without dairy supply risk.
>80% iron.
Bioavailable delivery.
Lactoferrin-bound iron is more soluble and is taken up by a different pathway than ferrous sulphate, reducing the GI side effects, enabling your customer to finish the bottle.
