IRB shorten the distance from ideal active ingredient
It may be a leaf, a flower or a seed. Only a small amount of plant tissue is required to find specific active substances. This small amount, however, requires in-depth scientific and technological knowledge.
With its strict and delicate procedure using advanced biotechnologies, IRB has optimized an industrial culture method, called HTN™ (High Tech Nature) to produce plant active ingredients in safety and eco-sustainability conditions. This innovative green biotech model consists in the cultivation of plant cells in a nutrient medium and in sterile conditions. This technology allows for the production of the same active substances synthesized by the plants, known as secondary metabolites, whose biological properties are often related to their physiological role in the plants as defensive agents against environmental stresses.
This process is also particularly advantageous in terms of speed and versatility: exceeding the limit of the plant biological cycle and maintaining its natural condition of growth and development, IRB considerably reduces production cycle times, at all times guaranteeing total availability of plant phytocomplex elements.
In this way IRB shorten the distance to the ideal profile of the active plant ingredient guaranteeing excellent quality standards, exceeding the limit of the traditional active ingredients:
- free from any type of pollutant, since plant stem cells are grown in a sterile and protected environment, without pesticides, heavy metals and aflatoxines
- non GMO, as the DNA of plant cells remains intact
- with guaranteed high titre, thanks to ongoing selection of cells that produce more of the active ingredient
- unlimited availability, using a biotech process that fully respects the environment and biodiversity
- totally eco-sustainable
