At Triton Algae Innovations we provide novel solutions for the world’s food and feed shortages and have taken the microalgae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, through the GRAS process. Chlamydomonas is safe, tastes great and is rich in essential amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin A and other vital nutrients. To unleash Chlamydomonas’ potential, Triton developed scalable, environment-friendly manufacturing processes, demonstrated benefits to gut health, and pioneered biotechnology tools to produce nutritional compounds, such as colostrum proteins, for future foods
