Plant-Grown Lactoferrin

Two forms. One platform.

WHY PLANT-GROWN LACTOFERRIN?

Bovine lactoferrin is constrained by dairy supply chains, seasonal variability, and approximately 20% iron saturation. Our plant-grown lactoferrin removes all three limitations. Produced through molecular farming in soybeans, it reaches over 60% iron saturation while eliminating animal-derived contamination risk. Two forms available: iron-loaded for bioavailability applications, iron-depleted for maximum antimicrobial activity.

Form 1

Iron Loaded (Native/Holo)

Iron Loaded
(Native/Holo)

Iron Loaded (Native/Holo)

Natively 3× to 4x iron-loaded for enhanced bioavailability, iron support, and skincare applications.

KEY Differentiator

>60%

IRON SATURATION

3-4x

Higher Iron Saturation Compared to Traditional Bovine Lactoferrin

+

more iron per unit of protein

=

stronger iron support at equal inclusion levels

Antimicrobial

Promotes growth of beneficial probiotic strains. Selectively inhibits specific microbial pathogens.

Wound Healing/Skincare

Functions as a growth factor, stimulating skin cell proliferation. Iron binding induces a closed, compact conformation that enhances structural stability and its ability to support cell growth and survival.

Iron Absorption

Offers iron in a bioavailable form. Effective intervention at 100-250 mg/day for patients with low Hb concentration. Safer option with high compliance evidence vs. traditional iron supplementation.

Iron Homeostasis

Helps maintain iron homeostasis in cellular mechanisms.

Form 2

Activated (Apo/Iron-Depleted)

Activated
(Apo/Iron-Depleted)

Activated (Apo/Iron-Depleted)

Iron-depleted for maximum antimicrobial activity and gut health support.

KEY Differentiator

*

Removing iron maximizes bacteriostatic effects by limiting iron availability to microbes

=

Demonstrates antimicrobial activity comparable to bovine-derived lactoferrin in growth-inhibition contexts

Antimicrobial

Promotes growth of beneficial probiotic strains. Shows strong pathogen-specific antimicrobial inhibition.

Anti-Inflammatory

Reduces inflammation and oxidative damage by sequestering free iron.

Immunomodulatory

Helps support and balance the immune system.
