Dyadic International, Inc. (“Dyadic”) (OTCQX:DYAI), announced today the conclusion of formal collaborative research with Danisco US Inc., a unit of DuPont Industrial Biosciences (“Danisco”). The research collaboration was part of the previously announced DuPont Sale Transaction. The research services by Danisco will conclude September 30, 2017.  

“We are grateful for the opportunity to have worked with the DuPont scientific organization during our post sale transition period to further explore and develop C1’s capabilities for use in biopharmaceutical applications. This collaboration provided Dyadic with valuable insights and data to help us better understand the potential and direction we would like to take the C1 technology and we are continuing the next phase of our C1 development,” said Mark A. Emalfarb, founder and CEO of Dyadic.

About Dyadic International, Inc.

Dyadic International, Inc. is a global biotechnology company which is developing what it believes will be a potentially significant biopharmaceutical protein production system based on the fungus Myceliopthora thermophila, nicknamed C1. The C1 microorganism, which enables the development and large scale manufacture of low cost proteins, has the potential to be further developed into a safe and efficient expression system that may help speed up the development, production and performance of biologic vaccines and drugs at flexible commercial scales.  Dyadic is using the C1 technology and other technologies to conduct research, development and commercial activities for the development and manufacturing of human and animal vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, biosimilars and/or biobetters, and other therapeutic proteins. Dyadic pursues research and development collaborations, licensing arrangements and other commercial opportunities with its partners and collaborators to leverage the value and benefits of these technologies in developing and manufacturing biopharmaceuticals which these technologies help produce. In particular, as the aging population grows in developed and undeveloped countries, Dyadic believes the C1 technology may help bring biologic drugs to market faster, in greater volumes, at lower cost, and with new properties to drug developers and manufacturers and, hopefully, improve access and cost to patients and the healthcare system, but most importantly save lives.
