RNA Biocontrol & Platform
An introduction to RNA
We can make dsRNA at scale using a differentiated manufacturing platform. We believe our expertise and proprietary technology will allow us to bring RNA products quickly and cost-effectively to market.
“What we’ve been able to do is actually make your RNA of choice. That allows you to make metric-ton quantities, in a capital-efficient system at a cost that the farmers can afford.”
Carole Cobb, Former GreenLight COO
How do we make RNA?
What is cell free production and how is ours different? The technology we developed to produce dsRNA enables delivery of high volume of Technical Grade Active Ingredient at less than $1/gram. This breakthrough can create high quality, non-GMO products.
The impact of our scalable, high-quality, low-cost RNA
In Rochester, New York, we are operating the world’s largest RNA factory. Find out more on our blog about how we have sized up from the lab to industrial scale.
Where and how
Our 17,000-square-foot facility in Rochester, New York is able to manufacture enzymes and RNA for a variety of agricultural applications, including the protection of honeybees.Previous
Pouches of our Varroa candidate are placed inside hives for bees to consume
Our plant in Rochester, New York has an installed capacity at 500 kg of RNA per year, with ready expansion to 1,000 kg.
The fermentation process to produce RNA has to be managed carefully to produce good field test candidates
They might not be bigger than a speck of pepper, but Varroa mites can devastate bee populations.
We hope to use our cell-free manufacturing process to produce RNA at scale.
The GreenLight way
Affordability
Our proprietary cell free methodology that enables prices at less than $1/gram for dsRNA
Quality
Our system allows us to create high-quality RNA
Speed
Batches take hours, not weeks, allowing us to be flexible and efficient
How our technology solves many RNA production problems
Each step and reaction component in the GreenLight Bio production process has been developed or selected with cost, quality, safety and commercial scalability in mind.
We won’t succeed alone
We work with some of the world’s leading universities, companies, and scientists
