Plexymer Startup Pitch
Modernizing Protein Formulation with Custom Excipients Designed by AI and Robotics
Modernizing Protein Formulation with Custom Excipients Designed by AI and Robotics
Everyone loves nicely fitted clothing that is tailored to their unique shape.
So do proteins!
At Plexymer, we are challenging the notion that companies should settle with poorly fitted, off-the-shelf polymer excipients that have little specificity to the protein of interest. Plexymer’s proprietary AI-enabled technology allows us to rapidly develop custom fitted excipients for sensitive protein products. Find out more!
A Tailored Approach to Protein Formulation
Proteins deserve better
Why spend so much time engineering proteins only to then add simple, low-performance polymer additives for final formulation? We believe proteins deserve better. At Plexymer, we use artificial intelligence and robotics to tailor make custom polymer excipients that better fit sensitive protein products.
Technology
Plexymer is a Rutgers University startup company based on a platform technology developed in the Gormley Lab. We combine automated combinatorial polymer chemistry and machine learning to develop a streamlined pipeline for data-driven polymer excipient design. Interested customers may simply provide protein, an activity assay, and test conditions and we’ll do the rest without any sponsored project commitment!
