producing complex animal compounds directly from cell cultures, not from livestock.
We use precision fermentation to produce high-value biomolecules that are structurally and functionally identical to those in animals.
WHAT IS
PRECISION FERMENTATION?
Precision fermentation is the use of bioengineered microbes as tiny production factories to make specific functional compounds typically derived from animals, such as proteins, enzymes, and fats.

HOW DOES
PRECISION FERMENTATION
WORK?
We use precision fermentation to produce key compounds traditionally sourced from animals. By engineering microorganisms to produce animal biomolecules while feeding on simple nutrients, we turn them into mini-biofactories capable of generating complex, high-value animal compounds. This approach is not only highly efficient—it also delivers substantial environmental benefits by significantly reducing land, water, and energy requirements, aligning with global sustainability targets and regulatory trends.
OUR
PRECISION FERMENTATION
BASED PRODUCTS
COSMETICS AND BIOMEDICINE
collagen and other proteins produced through precision fermentation offer ethical, sustainable alternatives to conventionally sourced ingredients.
FOOD INDUSTRY
TAMEE is our flagship product and it was designed to replicate the sensory profile of animal meat by using precision fermentation-derived bovine myoglobin. This innovative ingredient can be used in plant-based and cultivated meat products, delivering a more familiar taste and aroma, but without the environmental impact or ethical concerns associated with livestock farming. Our objective with TAMEE is to promote sustainability in the food industry by engaging traditional meat-eaters.
THE FUTURE OF
PRECISION FERMENTATION
A WORLD OF BOUNDLESS INNOVATION
Precision fermentation has the potential to completely transform the production of animal-derived ingredients. At Luyef, we are committed to leading the charge toward a more sustainable and ethical future. We aim to create a world where innovation doesn’t come with sacrifices, but instead brings solutions that benefit all—consumers, the planet, and future generations.
