Next-generation FreshQ®: Fermentation-enabled Bioprotection Solution for Dairy

The new generation of FreshQ® food cultures is a game changer enabling fermentation-based bioprotection against yeasts and molds without undesirable sensory impacts and acidity development often experienced with other culture solutions in the market. This launch builds on a breakthrough discovery by our scientists. They were first to explain the mode of action coming from the ability of the culture to compete with spoilage contaminants for a specific nutrient, manganese (Mn). FreshQ® food cultures can be used in yogurt, sour cream, quark, tvorog, white and cottage cheese and plant-based alternatives and helps producers improve quality and shelf life - naturally.

BeniCaros™: A proprietary immune health ingredient

BeniCaros™ is a proprietary immune health ingredient that has been clinically studied and shown to support immune function and optimize responses to potential threats and challenges. NutriLead’s proprietary extraction process to produce BeniCaros unlocks rhamnogalacturonan-I (RG-I), a soluble fiber, upcycled from carrot pomace. With a dual mechanism of action, BeniCaros directly supports the immune system to become more responsive and indirectly supports immune function by stimulating beneficial gut microorganisms and their metabolites, which in turn support the immune response. Both mechanisms help to support a healthy immune system to be at its best when it matters most.

Plant-based Innovation Award

This award recognizes an organization or company that has developed the best plant-based ingredient or application based on a plant-based ingredient in terms of sensory and physical properties or application costs. Preference will be given to entries introduced within the last 2 years.
