Portfolio entries for this sector

Depsidone · Hypogymnia physodes

3-Hydroxyphysodic Acid Antioxidant Line

The strongest radical scavenger in our comparative metabolite study — and the comparison was made per mole rather than per unit weight. That distinction matters when you translate a screening result into a formulation dose.

Evidence: Peer-reviewed 2022 · DPPH + superoxide
Stage: Pilot-ready · licensing open
Indicative: € 5 000 – 25 000negotiable by scope and application

Depsidone · Hypogymnia physodes

Physodic Acid Bioactivity Line

Present in both of our published panels, with antioxidant and antiproliferative activity reported in 2D and 3D models. A natural comparator when you want to benchmark a candidate against gyrophoric acid within one experimental system.

Evidence: Peer-reviewed 2022 & 2023
Stage: Pilot-ready · licensing open
Indicative: € 5 000 – 25 000negotiable by scope and application

Depside · Evernia prunastri

Evernic Acid Natural Antioxidant Line

Isolated from Evernia prunastri and tested in DPPH and superoxide anion scavenging assays in our 2022 comparative study, then carried into the 2023 multi-compound panel. Clear positioning for cosmetic and nutraceutical antioxidant discovery.

Evidence: Peer-reviewed 2022 & 2023
Stage: Pilot-ready · licensing open
Indicative: € 4 000 – 20 000negotiable by scope and application

Standardised crude / semi-purified extracts · 5–10 species

Lichen Extract Bioactivity Panels

The quickest way to see what lichen chemistry can do for your pipeline. Panels of Pseudevernia furfuracea, Lobaria pulmonaria, Cetraria islandica, Umbilicaria hirsuta and related species, with HPLC/LC-MS profiling plus antioxidant, antimicrobial and cell viability assays. You receive a shortlist of active candidates with data.

Evidence: Peer-reviewed 2023 · profiling data
Stage: Pilot-ready · 8–12 weeks

C7Bioconjugation tools

Saccharide derivatives · Reactive intermediates

Sugar Isothiocyanates & Aminosugars

Sugar isothiocyanates form covalent bonds with amines, which makes them useful for conjugating sugars to proteins or fluorescent labels and tracking sugar transport in vivo. Aminosugars are building blocks for glycoprotein and glycolipid synthesis, joint-nutrition compounds and antibiotic development targeting bacterial cell walls.

How an engagement typically starts here

Model 01 · Start here

Discovery call

A focused 30-minute conversation about your pipeline, the compound or protein of interest, the application and IP considerations. No commitment. We establish together whether there is a fit and what the right next step is.

Deliverable: Verbal assessment · recommended next step
Duration: 30 minutes
Price: Freepaid expert consultation available in selected cases

Model 02

Feasibility scan

Before lab time is allocated, we assess your target, application and intended use scientifically and technically. The fastest way to test assumptions — and far cheaper than a pilot that runs in the wrong direction.

Deliverable: Written feasibility assessment
Duration: By scope
Price: € 1 500 – 5 000or negotiated

Model 03

Bioactivity pilot

A defined assay protocol, agreed readouts and a written technical report. Recommended for antioxidant, antiproliferative and antimicrobial screening. You receive data you can act on immediately, not a promise of future experiments.

Deliverable: Assay data · technical report
Duration: 4–8 weeks
Price: € 5 000 – 20 000or negotiated

Common questions

How does an engagement start?

With a free 30-minute discovery call. We establish whether there is a fit and what the right next step is. Nothing is committed at that point.

Can we sign an NDA before we describe our project?

Yes. Tick the NDA box on the inquiry form and we arrange it before any disclosure.

Are the prices on this site binding?

No. They are indicative ranges so that you can size a project before contacting us. Final terms are negotiated per scope.

How quickly do you reply?

Every inquiry is acknowledged within one working day and answered by the responsible group leader within three.

What happens if you cannot help?

We say so, early, and where we can we point you to someone who can. A negative feasibility answer delivered quickly is a useful result.
