Our co-founder Joni Symon explains the science behind lactoferrin and its unique ability to bind to iron. 🧬 Lactoferrin, a bioactive protein, plays a vital role in iron modulation and iron homeostasis in the body, making it an attractive solution for sports nutrition and female health. Whether you're supporting athletic performance or combating nutrient deficiencies like anemia, lactoferrin’s iron-binding capabilities are a game-changer. Watch as Joni walks us through how lactoferrin goes from a pink hue when fully saturated with iron to a completely colourless powder when iron is removed. #denovo #denovofoodlabs #lactoferrin #ironsaturation #innovation

In this weeks Journal Club, Megan Marinus shared the following with the team: Another potential functionality of bovine lactoferrin identified and described in this recent nature publication! The article highlights that bovine lactoferrin (bLf) inhibits malaria parasite growth by binding to heme and blocking the formation of hemozoin. Hemozoin formation is a crucial step in parasite survival. bLF also degrades existing hemozoin which is a unique function not seen in current antimalarials like chloroquine. In mouse models, bLF reduced parasite growth, with its C-lobe domain being particularly effective at inhibiting hemozoin formation. The study highlights bLF's potential as a novel antimalarial agent, offering a new approach to combat drug-resistant malaria. #lactoferrin #journalclub #article #denovo #denovofoodlabs

Creatine isn't just a supplement—it’s a powerful tool for improving performance in strength training 💪 By increasing ATP availability, creatine provides the rapid energy needed for intense exercise, resulting in enhanced power output, improved recovery, and greater gains in muscle strength. Studies show that consistent creatine supplementation (3-5g/day) can significantly increase strength and performance in high-intensity, short-duration activities. Whether you're an athlete or simply looking to improve your physical fitness, creatine offers a well-researched, science-backed advantage 🌱 Explore how creatine can elevate your strength training routine and enhance your exercise recovery! #denovo #science #nutrient #biotech #innovation #foodinnovation #denovofoodlabs #startup

This Nature correspondence highlights the importance of collaborative dialogue in the creative process of science. Engaging in conversation allows scientists to combine knowledge, challenge each other's reasoning, and explore new directions, fostering breakthroughs that are often difficult to achieve in isolation. It has been observed that large group discussions can lead to conformity and inhibit creativity, while smaller groups—particularly pairs—tend to produce more innovative results. The ideal collaboration involves supportive interaction, encouraging rather than criticising new ideas. This atmosphere nurtures trust and free expression, vital for creativity. The piece also suggests that these discussions are rooted in our evolutionary history as social problem-solvers, and that they remain essential tools for scientific advancement, even for established researchers. The author encourages cultivating a “science buddy” relationship and stresses the value of informal brainstorming sessions to enhance creativity. Give the full article a read below!
