OrganiGram Biosynthesis Disruptive Technology......

Organigram is one of only two Canadian LPs to make a strategic investment in biosynthesis – a disruptive production technology.

What is Biosynthesis?
Biosynthesis is the production of molecules using living cells. By incorporating the instructions for producing a specific molecule into the genetic code of a simple host organism—e.g., bacteria, yeast, or algae—these organisms can produce nearly any molecule. The host cells are essentially ‘factories’.

Why Biosynthesis?
The principal cannabinoids—THC and CBD—make up just ~two to five per cent of the cannabis plant, while minor cannabinoids and terpenes—hundreds of them—comprise less than 0.1 per cent. As such, 95 per cent of the plant generally ends up as waste through current methods for manufacturing, which rely on planting, growing, and harvesting large quantities of cannabis plants and then extracting and purifying their active compounds. The process often yields a complex chemical mixture of variable and inconsistent composition.
