Research & Development

Partner with POS Biosciences to accelerate your brand’s innovation—from early concept to scale-up. Our scientists and engineers work closely with you to optimize processes, develop new products, and unlock value at every step.

Process Development Expertise

We can design and optimize extraction and manufacturing processes, balancing efficiency, yield, and quality, whether you’re refining an existing ingredient or exploring new raw materials.

Feedstock analysis & design of experiments (DOE)

to identify optimal processing conditions

Scalable process development

from gram to kilogram scale

Detailed technical reporting

covering mass balance, observations, conclusions, and recommendations

Analytical method creation

and quality control procedures

Specification development

by investigating purity and impurity profiles

Technology transfer packages

to support commercialization

Material production (kilogram to metric tonne) for industrial evaluation, prototyping, and market testing

Process validation

using appropriate equipment

Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) Support:

Our LCA services identify opportunities to reduce energy use, emissions, and waste across the supply chain—supporting your sustainability goals, compliance requirements, and brand commitments.

Applications & Food Formulations

Tailored solutions to support healthy skin, joints, brain function, heart health, healthy aging, and inflammatory conditions. Options include nutritional oils (flavored or unflavored), sauces, and other functional food applications.

Product Development & Scale-Up

We support projects from lab scale to full commercial production across dietary supplements (USA), natural health products (Canada), nutritional supplements (global markets), food formulations, and cosmeceuticals (beauty from within).

Dosage Forms We Offer

Liquid

Solutions, syrups, suspensions, and emulsions containing water- and oil-soluble ingredients in palatable and stable formulation.

Solids

Soft gelatin capsules (vegan, bovine, or porcine) and 2-piece hard gelatin capsules (vegan or bovine).

Powders

Protein-based blends (plant, animal, or mixed), condition-specific formulations with vitamins, herbal extracts, and nutraceuticals.

Additional Support

We can also provide regulatory support and shelf life studies to support commercialization.

Comprehensive Analytical Services

Our dedicated lab team provides comprehensive analysis to ensure your materials meet performance, safety, and quality standards. We offer a wide range of tests, including:

Proximate Analysis:

Ash, Oil, Moisture, Protein, and Carbohydrate contents

Color Assays:

Lovibond, Hunter, and Chlorophyll

Fat Composition:

Fatty acid analysis in oil

Oil Quality Testing:

Oxidation values (peroxide and p-anisidine), acid value, cold test, flash and smoke point, OSI Rancimat, Mettler dropping point, soaps, wax content, viscosity, and more

Protein Functionality Testing:

Emulsification capacity and stability, foaming capacity and stability, water and oil holding capacity, solubility at different pHs, and polydispersity index (PDI)
