Moolec Science Achieves USDA Approval for Genetically Engineered Soybean

Moolec Science SA, a company specializing in Molecular Farming, announced receiving USDA-APHIS approval for its genetically engineered soybean, Piggy Sooy™, which produces animal meat protein. This approval confirms that Piggy Sooy™ poses no greater plant pest risk than its non-engineered counterparts, clearing it from certain APHIS regulations.

Gastón Paladini, CEO of Moolec Science, emphasized that this approval is a significant milestone and aligns with their strategy to combat climate change and enhance global food security by using science to transform plant capabilities. The company's focus remains on delivering sustainable and nutritious food ingredients.

The Piggy Sooy™ product aims to introduce a unique blend of porcine myoglobin and traditional soybean proteins, expected to appeal to food manufacturers for its environmental and functional benefits. This breakthrough is anticipated to influence broader adoption of Molecular Farming technologies in the food industry.

Further development and regulatory consultations with the FDA are currently underway, setting the stage for the commercial launch of the Piggy Sooy™ ingredient. This move could potentially revolutionize the food-industrial biotech landscape, as noted by Martin Salinas, Chief Technology Officer at Moolec.
