FAQs

How does Lipid Atlas accelerate development?

By centralizing and structuring data, Lipid Atlas significantly reduces screening time. It allows rapid identification of the most promising non-GMO candidates for specific applications, while contributing to cleaner, more label-friendly formulations.

Which data sets are integrated within Lipid Atlas?

Lipid Atlas integrates detailed lipid composition data, including fatty acid profiles and functional characteristics, saponification value, iodine value, and OSI. This structured dataset enables a comprehensive understanding of how biological and process variables influence fat performance. 

What is Lipid Atlas?

SMEY’s Lipid Atlas is a catalog of cultivated oils powered by NOY’s proprietary data. Each strain is mapped for lipid content, fatty-acid profile, and key performance traits to support smarter product design.

What is NOY (Neobank of Yeasts)?

NOY is SMEY’s proprietary platform, the world’s first digital and physical living library of yeasts, enabling fast discovery of previously unexplored lipids and enzymes.
