Our client wanted to identify novel
probiotic strains with proven health
benefits for exclusive use.

The project story:

An overview across health benefits was provided incorporating
research on established and emerging areas, global hotspots,
funding, patent activity and across companies, institutes,
academics, and SMEs.

Interviews were conducted with experts from clinical, medical,
and probiotic research labs, and were vital to gaining insights into
areas where non-commercialised strains might be found. The
robustness of experimental models to prove beneficial effects in
humans was also investigated.

Results: deliverables and outcomes

Novel probiotic strains were identified with data to prove efficacy.
Leading academics and SMEs working on identifying novel strains
that were receptive to undertaking early stage development
research with our client were identified.
