Cascade Bio
Transforming chemical manufacturing using cascades of enzymes to make any molecule using nature’s catalysts.
The University of Colorado Connection
Cascade Bio’s proprietary enzyme immobilization technology, dubbed “Body Armor,” acts as a cushion for the enzyme, enabling it to last longer, withstand more challenging conditions, and work across a wider operating window than other cell-free solutions. The technology was invented by co-founder while a graduate student in the CU Boulder laboratories of (CU Boulder Chemical and Biological Engineering) and (CU Boulder Chemical and Biological Engineering).
