Pure culture of saltwater-adapted
Sporosarcina pasteurii DSM 33
Stereomicroscopy of Precipitate
MARINE ADAPTATION: We have successfully adapted the freshwater bacterial strain Sporosarcina pasteurii DSM 33 to thrive in high-salinity seawater. This unique breakthrough enables active biomineralization in marine environments.
MINERALOGICAL MIMICRY: In a seawater environment, our microbial strains promote the precipitation of magnesian calcite, accurately replicating the mineralogical characteristics of natural coral reefs to accelerate the formation of the coating layer on the coral base.
Controlled R&D System
Frags on AquaCore Gen 1
Ethical Parent Colony
CONTROLLED R&D ECOSYSTEM: Our sophisticated recirculating systems precisely simulate oceanic conditions for accurate validation.
ETHICAL PROPAGATION & ECOLOGICAL SUCCESS: Sourcing frags solely from lab-grown colonies ensures zero impact on natural reefs. On our biomimetic scaffolds, these frags achieve a remarkable 96.67% (± 5.77) survival rate. Crucially, our Magnesian Calcite cues reduce coral attachment time to just 9 days—a 25% acceleration compared to standard substrates.
