Polylysine is a natural food preservative manufactured by JNC CORPORATION with the use of bio-technology.
This naturally occurring substance is a chain polymer of the "essential amino acid" L-lysine, a protein that is essential for human health and development.
The product is characterized by is superior safety and growth-inhibiting power on pathogenic bacteria releasing toxins in food and causing food decay.
Polylysine has a potent preservative effect even in minor doses and does therefore not affect the taste qualities of the food it protects from decay.
We have a full range of polylysine food preservatives to improve the storage life of various foods.

Cellufine is a chromatography medium for separating and purifying biopharmaceuticals such as antibody drugs, blood products and vaccine preparations. It can be used repeatedly and is highly safe because it is based on natural polysaccharide cellulose. Cellufine is used worldwide in the purification process of biopharmaceuticals whose market is expanding.
In particular, in the purification process of vaccine preparations, JNC was the first to develop chromatography media and has led the technological innovations as a pioneer in this field.
We have recently started sales of production-scale bioprocess devices and large columns mainly in the Asian region, and we strive to realize a total solution for the purification process of biopharmaceuticals.
