Polypharmakos and CABI to develop new antimicrobial products from CABI Culture Collection

Polypharmakos Limited, a spin-out company from the UK’s Royal Botanic Gardens Kew and University of Cambridge, and international not-for-profit organisation CABI have signed a research collaboration and licensing agreement to develop novel products from CABI’s Culture Collection.

CABI’s Culture Collection consists of 30,000 strains of optimally preserved fungi and bacteria isolated from diverse ecosystems from around the world – a reflection of CABI’s work and mission to improve lives by solving problems in agriculture and the environment.
