Enduro Sense™ boosts VIVICI’s precision‑fermentation platform

Copenhagen, Denmark — April 14th 2026— Enduro Genetics today announced that VIVICI, a pioneer in precision‑fermented dairy proteins, has successfully integrated Enduro’s Enduro Sense™ genetic performance‑enhancement into its precision-fermentation platform.
 

This announcement follows a collaboration in which Enduro integrated Enduro Sense™ into VIVICI’s existing Vivitein™ BLG production strain. Within five months—from tech transfer to full bioreactor validation— Enduro Sense™ delivered a 30% increase in production titers and yields, all within the existing process setup and using the same amount of feedstock.
 

“At VIVICI, we focus on developing and producing high-quality dairy proteins at a competitive cost. Enduro Sense™ allows an immediate step-change improvement in performance and by providing enhanced strain stability through the duration of the bioprocess it positions us to pursue even deeper cost optimization through draw-and-fill and continuous fermentation. Importantly, it builds on our established strain-engineering and process optimization efforts.” — Marcel Wubbolts, CTO, VIVICI
 

“The team at VIVICI is bold, visionary, and committed to accelerating the commercialization and cost-competitive production of high-quality precision-fermented dairy proteins. The Vivitein™ BLG production strain was already among the best of its kind in the industry, so we felt genuinely humbled to be invited to help strengthen it further. This collaboration truly demonstrates how Enduro Sense™ can unlock additional performance when paired with a leading fermentation platform,” said Christian Munch, CEO, Enduro Genetics.
 

About Enduro Sense™
Enduro Sense™ is a genetic technology platform that fundamentally reshapes how production strains perform in industrial scale bioprocesses. In a traditional process, every cell in the production culture is genetically identical—yet only 15–20% naturally become high‑producers, accounting for more than half of the total output while the remaining cells underperform.

With a simple, one-time genetic plug-in, Enduro Sense™ flips this imbalance. The technology ‘locks in’ productivity by ensuring that only the highest-producing cell variants thrive and expand, allowing them to dominate the culture. This eliminates low-performing cells, stabilizes productivity, and unlocks dramatically higher titers and yields—all without changing equipment, inputs, or bioprocess setups.
