Public Profile

With a license from Penn State, Llignolink is commercializing a process for changing the lignin structure within plant cell walls, so that it can more easily be broken apart at protein “links”. Lignin is an important component in determining the strength and health of a plant, but is typically hard to digest for animals and is an impediment to cellulosic based biofuels production. The company’s innovative technology will enable the development of improved feed stocks for the biofuels industry as well as for dairy cows and livestock in gene
