Do your microorganisms produce any potentially harmful toxins? If so, what precautions are you taking?
We have done extensive genome analysis and shown that our microorganisms do not have pathways for production of toxins. Safety is a top priority, and we're working with top flight environmental counsel to ensure that our activities comply with the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requirements for contained research and development. Our scale-up operations are being designed to meet or exceed federal, state and local workplace and environmental health and safety requirements.
