R&D - Leading the field in innovation

Ongoing research and development is the lifeblood of our work. Danisco operates multiple research and application laboratories around the globe. And we are the only culture supplier with a dedicated Health and Nutrition Centre. This dedication to science has also made us what we are today - the world’s leading supplier of probiotics.

Danisco’s probiotic R&D programme is based on three technology pillars:

  • Stability – ensuring probiotic viability throughout the shelf life of supplements and nutritionals
  • Efficacy – developing condition-specific documentation and formulations over an expanding range of conditions
  • Application – expanding the range of delivery vehicles for probiotic-supplemented products


In addition to the work conducted at our Health & Nutrition Centre and multiple global R&D sites, we support our development efforts by frequent collaborations with external research institutes and universities.
