$AMRS Amyris "Amyris delivers high-performance renewable products across a wide range of consumer and industry segments. Our products offer customers a way to reduce environmental impact with No Compromise® in performance or availability.
We developed innovative microbial engineering and screening technologies that modify the way microorganisms process sugars. With our innovative bioscience technology and established fermentation processes, we convert plant-sourced sugars into renewable molecules for multiple applications.
Our story began over a decade ago, when Amyris was founded with a vision of making a positive impact on the world through science. We first used our proprietary process to convert plant-sugars into an alternative, lower cost, stable supply of artemisinin, an effective anti-malarial. Thanks to our breakthrough technology, these life saving drugs are more readily accessible.
Our initial business strategy was focused on the production of Biofene®, Amyris’s brand of renewable farnesene, a long-chain branched hydrocarbon molecule, manufactured using Amyris-engineered microbes in fermentation of plant sugar feedstock.
Building on the expertise from farnesene production, Amyris is developing, and in some cases producing, a range of other molecules. From these renewable molecules, we are developing a wide range of renewable specialty chemicals and fuels products, ranging from cosmetic emollients and fragrances to fuels and lubricants and even biopharmaceuticals, through our µPharm drug discovery platform."
