- Water
To protect our water, we need to innovate the chemicals that we use to protect our crops. At PhylloTech, we are making chemicals safer by using natural proteins that are effective against pathogens yet do not harm the environment.
- Environment
To protect the environment, we need to move away from the toxic chemicals that are currently used that endanger the health of our ecosystems. PhylloTech is working toward safer alternatives using natural protein products.
- BioProduction
To produce biochemicals in a safe and environmentally sustainable way, we are innovating the way plants can be used as biofactories. From industrial proteins to natural products to biopharmaceuticals, our BioProduction system is changing the way people view plants as factories.
- Phylloplane
The Phylloplane, or the leaf surface, is an untapped resource for natural products. Our scientists are experts in plant science and Phylloplane biology, and are exploiting the leaf surface for its unique properties.
- PhylloTech
At PhylloTech, we are performing research at the crossroads of Clean Tech, Biotechnology, and Agriculture. We are improving methods to create proteins that fight crop disease and we are improving ways that plants can be used as factories for producing high value proteins.
PhylloTech is located at the University of Wisconsin Research Park in Madison, WI, with an office at KTRDC at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, KY. Please check out our technology page for more information on the research we are performing.
