What is the current development pipeline of microbiome-based live biotherapeutics? With over 85 products under preclinical and clinical development, the current development pipeline of microbiome-based live biotherapeutics has several promising candidates, which are anticipated to get commercialized over the next few years. Hence, the demand for R&D and manufacturing services for such products is anticipated

Live biotherapeutics are fragile bacteria, which require ideal conditions of heat, moisture and pH of products, to survive and prevent premature germination. In fact, manufacturing is presently one of the biggest bottlenecks in this domain; manufacturing such products is both technically challenging and financially demanding. One of the biggest challenges in the development of a

The interest in the trillions of microbiome present in the human body has attracted a lot of research effort in the microbiome domain. The first such effort at a large scale was The Human Microbiome Project, conducted by the National Institutes of Health in the United States, which characterized the microbial communities at five major
