NEWS 82 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE May 2023 Bühler announced the launch of the next generation of its TAS grain cleaning system, the TAS LAAC. Cleaning is an essential part of any operation, as clean raw material is vital for any food and feed production process, ensuring safety and high quality of the product. The TAS cleaning system has been a customer favorite for grain processing for more than 30 years and its updated version is now available to customers worldwide. The new TAS LAAC builds on the success of the classic TAS, renowned for its highly efficient cleaning, high throughput rate, flexible configuration, and low operating costs. The latest model retains all of this and comes with a range of impressive new features, including remote control for the machine settings. This means that operators can easily make adjustments to optimize settings at changeovers, no matter where they are in the mill, malting plant, or reception points. Another major innovation is the introduction of ultra-reliable sensors. This enables the machine to be connected to digital services offering condition monitoring for maximum uptime and deep analyses for improved yields. Its instant compatibility with Bühler Insights, meanwhile, allows for advanced trend analysis and much more.

Through the partnership, Cambrium and Ginkgo combined their capabilities to enable the rapid and cost-effective design of high performing, industrially relevant microbes for protein production. Almost 2 years ago, Cambrium and FGen, a subsidiary of Ginkgo now known as Ginkgo’s Encapsulation and Screening team, announced a partnership to push the boundaries of data-driven metabolic engineering. Combining FGen’s expertise in microbial strain development and ultra high-throughput screening (uHTS) techniques with Cambrium’s Cloud Protein AI platform, the collaboration screened a vast quantity of cells to optimize their protein production. The collaboration allowed scientists to map experimental data to in silico models, generating strain optimization insights and enabling faster convergence towards high performance protein production. It also enabled the isolation of novel cell lines which produced enhanced levels of high-value proteins. Through the collaboration, the teams were able to identify non-obvious engineering targets to significantly improve strain performance. In particular, the results show that, even with limited genome edits, it is possible to achieve significant increases across critical performance metrics in iterative fermentation cycles.
