  • In September 2025, Illumina Protein Prep launched as a high-performance assay for next-generation sequencing (NGS) based proteomics, now available globally after an early-access program. This solution enhances large-scale genomics studies and aids in drug discovery and clinical research, particularly in cancer, cardiometabolic, and immunologic diseases. By leveraging SOMAmer technology, it measures 9,500 unique human protein targets, providing comprehensive insights into protein biology essential for biomarker discovery and precision therapy development.
  • In June 2025, Meala FoodTech and DSM-Firmenich collaborated to launch Vertis PB Pea, a clean-label pea protein designed to replace modified binders in plant-based meat alternatives. This functional ingredient allows for the creation of shorter, more recognizable ingredient labels, catering to the rising demand for plant-based foods. Already commercialized in Europe, the product will expand globally with DSM-Firmenich providing distribution and investment support. Vertis PB Pea boasts features such as being allergen-free, thermostable, and capable of enhancing texture and protein content in products like burgers and sausages. Its functionality is protected by two patents.
