Considering the actual requirements as Important for Food Industry, Prathista developed a series of Products based on Organic Salts & its salts manufactured using Environmental friendly fermentation methodologies. Prathista Industries Limited is commercializing various process technologies through biotechnology methodologies for Food Industries: a) Proteinates b) Propionic acid and salts c) Gluconates d) Lactates e) Lactates and Acetates f) Propionates and Acetates etc All these products Non GMO with global certifications from Kosher, Halal and USFDA besides USDA. 4. Address with Tele/Fax/ Prathista Industries Limited, /23, Bharathi Nagar, Temple Alwal, SECUNDERABAD , Telangana, id : info@prathista.com, land line : Current area of research in Biological Sciences and Biotechnology (Not more than 200 words) Presently focus for Prathista is to commercialize fermentation technology to manufacture blends of Lactates with acetates Liquid as well as spray dried powder, developed in DSIR recognized Prathista in-house R&D center, application of which is as Shelf Life enhancers and to control listeria growth in all meat products for food safety. The Research involves development of selective micro-organism (one of the Lactobacillus spices) from test tube level to higher scale with unique media composition, developed with years of research. This innovative process technology is initially developed at shake glass level and then at 5 liters to 150 liters lab scale fermentation facility and then up-scaled at 5000 liters fermentation plant successfully (with 5% sugar content) with 300 kgs per batch capacity in Pilot scale fermentation plant. The process is now up scaled to liters fermentation plant (with 9-10% sugar levels as media composition) for process commercialization with 1800 kgs capacity per batch. 6.
