Renaissance Ingredients Inc. is a company involved in the development and commercialization of acrylamide-reducing yeast for food production. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Renaissance BioScience Corporation, the company specializes in delivering natural ways to lower acrylamide levels in various food products.
Acrylamide is a chemical molecule that occurs in some foods during high-temperature cooking operations like frying, roasting, and baking. Recognized as a potential health risk, its presence in food has caused regulatory agencies to investigate strategies for reducing it.
Renaissance Ingredients created a non-GMO baker's yeast strain that can reduce acrylamide generation by up to 95% in a variety of culinary products, including bread, toast, and fried potatoes. This yeast operates by decomposing asparagine, the precursor ingredient to acrylamide, during the conventional food production process, needing only minor modifications to current manufacturing procedures.
The company's acrylamide-reducing yeast technique has received GRAS classification from the US Food and Drug Administration, making it easier to use in food manufacturing. Renaissance Ingredients has also entered into licensing arrangements to supply this technology in a variety of areas, including an exclusive cooperation with Orkla Food Ingredients in the Nordic and Baltic regions.
