About Us
Innovation means both innovation and change. We focus on both, as they are essential foundations for today's livestock farming in order to be able to operate it in a species-appropriate and sustainable manner. TrophoSYS GmbH develops innovative technologies and products specifically for this market, which make a significant contribution to improving animal welfare, the nutritional situation of people and the global resource situation.
The meat and dairy industries are subject to global challenges that are driving the industrialization process forward inexorably. The development of technologies that are particularly safe for health is essential in this industry and is the primary goal of our product developments.
Building on this focus, the company is particularly committed to providing urgently needed alternatives in the rearing of livestock in order to enable responsible use of resources while observing basic ethical rules and avoiding genetic manipulation.
Our expertise
Analyse
We analyze a given situation, look for solutions and focus on innovative processes and technologies that form the basis for improvement.
Conception
With our entire team, we take up ideas that we consider valid and, on the basis of our experience and knowledge, create a concept that enables successful implementation.
implementation
The approved concept is then implemented according to the planned milestones with our team and suitable partners until it is ready for series production.
Quality
We place the highest value on first-class quality. Only products that meet our high quality standards and have been certified find their way to the customer. We ensure this quality through extensive product tests and studies.
Efficiency
Time is money – also for our customers. That's why we work in optimized processes and with a well-coordinated team on site. This way we can guarantee that we align our offer with the customer's workflow.
sustainability
It is important to us that our technologies and processes are implemented sustainably, ethically and in harmony with nature.
Our projects
After a very short time, the first successes have been achieved and it is already clear that the combination of business experience and scientific expertise is the best basis for a project to progress positively. In conjunction with the high-quality network of partners, the conditions are always in place to implement all individual projects quickly and with high quality.
Solutions for cattle breeding
TrophoSYS's innovative methods enable cattle breeding to improve breeding results by separating live and dead cells in the ejaculate, and to specifically rear them by separating sperm containing X and Y chromosomes.
The company is breaking new ground worldwide with its live/dead separation process and is currently the only provider with this highly efficient technology. The device development has been completed, toxicity tests have already been successfully implemented and the necessary field studies have started.
When it comes to separating sperm containing X and Y chromosomes, TrophoSYS is taking its own approach and is using a highly efficient technology that has not yet been used in this way. The development of the device has also been completed here, but the biotechnological finalization of the process is still pending and has not yet been finalized.Even today, in the current proof-of-concept stage, sperm can be separated into female and male cells by over 90% with almost native cell health and high yield.
Our technologies are based on the use of different surface properties of the respective cell species and on the use of specially developed auxiliary material concepts that significantly increase the differentiability of these surface properties. The actual separation takes place in a device developed by TrophoSYS, which does not have a negative effect on cell health or even can be genetically manipulated.
Solutions for other animal species
The success of the separation technology designed to date for cattle has led TrophoSYS to already be taking preparatory measures to extend the technology concept to other mammals.
Other areas of livestock breeding are also extremely interested in improving and optimizing ejaculates and in a functioning gender-specific separation method.TrophoSYS's separation technologies represent solutions that can, in principle, enable effective and economical breeding.
Our goals
With its innovative projects, devices and processes, TrophoSYS not only wants to create an economic success model, but also to contribute to improving the nutritional situation while reducing emissions by using new technologies.
The company has set itself the goal of developing separation technologies with the following properties:
Highly effective and high throughput
No impairment of cell health
No use of genetic manipulative techniques
Cost-effective
Flexible location
Application to the customer on-demand
Consistent implementation by the end customer can enable optimized and targeted breeding, resulting in greater economic efficiency and lower emissions at the same time, and an overall smaller stock will then produce the same output as currently.
This in turn also meets the demands regarding climate targets, since fewer animals also means less feed and land requirements as well as less CO2, methane and faeces production.
TrophoSYS is thus developing urgently needed processes that serve both animal welfare and the climate, as well as ensuring greater efficiency and profitability, thus allowing farmers to manage their livestock sustainably and carefully.
In summary, the new procedures for handling resources represent a significant improvement:
Less Co2 emissions
Less land and water consumption
Less feces
More animal welfare
More efficiency
More sustainability
We are convinced that we will be able to extend the processes we have developed to other animal species in the future and thus offer added value to the entire agricultural production in the area of livestock rearing.
More responsibility in the commitment to future generations
