Seeking compound libraries for a high throughput screening to develop new products The company is interested in library partners for rapid compound screening for it's new highly-flexible high throughput experimentation laboratory. This laboratory is designed with a plug-and-play concept, which allows quick integration of specialized workstations to automate each specific workflow. Now the company is looking for compound libraries as basis for a high throughput screening to develop new products for their businesses. For this purpose, they are seeking both synthetic and natural molecule collections and is open to partners from any country. While the company itself is interested to exploit the results of the screening a variety of cooperation is possible. Research cooperation agreements with research organizations might yield into publications or consequent R&D contracts. Technical cooperation with large libraries might help the libraries to describe their portfolio much more in detail or exclusively sell library components to the company. Depending on the development stage of the library compounds licensing compounds to the company might be an option. Depending on joint interests and capacities joint venture might be a way to further develop usability of compounds.

Seeking Powder Sterilization Technologies We are seeking efficient and effective technologies to sterilize powdered seasonings without impacting performance characteristics. The powdered seasonings provided to PepsiCo are often comprised of onion or garlic powder. The complete seasoning, or its component ingredients, have the potential for the presence of undesirable microbial contamination. Treatment of these powders by way of irradiation can be effective, however, this technique is not permitted without proper labeling in certain global regions. Given the large surface area of the powders in question, other methods of microbial eradication have typically been ineffective. We would like to identify potential technologies to remove microbial contamination without negatively impacting the physical attributes or flavor profile of the seasoning.
