Moolec Confirms US Harvest and Promising Yields for Plant-Grown Products GLASO(TM) and Piggy Sooy(TM) in October
5.9.2024 06:00:00 CEST | ACCESS Newswire | Press release
LUXEMBOURG / ACCESSWIRE / September 5, 2024 / Moolec Science SA (NASDAQ:MLEC) ("The Company", "Moolec"), a science-based food ingredient company, announced today the harvest confirmation of US campaigns for genetically engineered plant-grown products GLASO™ and Piggy Sooy™ during October 2024.
GLASO™ and Piggy Sooy™ US Harvest Announcement
GLASO™ (gamma-linolenic acid -GLA- in safflower oil) campaign located in Idaho consists of 600 planted acres of genetically modified safflower, mainly for commercial purposes. As a result of the harvest, Moolec is expecting to produce between 300 to 400 tons of safflower seeds that contain high levels of GLA. To allocate most of the upcoming GLASO™ production, Moolec has secured an offtake agreement with a major global CPG company, targeting the US market in 2025. Following a successful and rigorous audit from Moolec's CPG customer, production is set to begin in late 2024.
The Company is also developing a broader commercial strategy to reach larger markets and clients. Moolec's GLASO™ product contains almost 3 times more GLA than conventional sources such as borage and primrose oil, making it the most concentrated GLA oil available on the market.
Piggy Sooy™ (porcine myoglobin in soybean seeds) field trials are being carried out in 3 different US locations: Ohio, Missouri and Iowa. Main purposes for the campaign are product development (sampling), seed increase and gathering of environmental and regulatory data to continue Moolec's US-FDA approval pathway. The Team also projects a remarkable first open field performance for its bioengineered soybean Piggy Sooy™ after recent approval for cultivation from USDA-APHIS. This has set an unprecedented milestone in biotechnology last April, with Moolec becoming the first Molecular Farming company to obtain this kind of clearance for food crops growing animal proteins in US territory.
Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder Martín Salinas stated: "Our commitment to scaling Moolec's Molecular Farming Technology is demonstrated by our GLASO™ campaign and the field trials of Piggy Sooy™. These efforts not only reinforce our position as pioneers in the industry but also lay the foundation for sustainable solutions in agriculture and biotechnology." He then finished by remarking: "One acre of Piggy Sooy™ could potentially produce pork meat proteins equivalent to 10 pigs, reducing water footprint, land usage and CO2 emissions. This is a clear demonstration on how we promote environmental improvements throughout all our operations. Our aim is to heal the meat production system."

NOVELIC Partners with Global DMS Leader Smart Eye to Develop Next-Generation Camera and Radar In-Cabin Monitoring Systems21.9.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press release
BELGRADE, RS / ACCESS Newswire / September 21, 2026 / NOVELIC, a Belgrade-based innovator in mmWave radar solutions, announced a strategic partnership with Smart Eye, a global leader in Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) and Interior Sensing AI, to provide OEMs with a well-rounded feature set that satisfies the upcoming Euro NCAP requirements for driver and occupant monitoring. The result is a scalable and cost-effective solution that combines vision and radar for straightforward integration. Since the software is running entirely on the sensor, only a single CAN-Bus interface to the vehicle is required, eliminating the need for external hardware, LVDS interfaces, and added computational load elsewhere in the car. NOVELIC and Smart Eye's innovative system approach will debut at Smart Eye's booth #305 at InCabin Europe 2026 in Barcelona.
