Turtle Tree’s “world first” animal-free lactoferrin targets US market after safety validation

29 Nov 2023 — Turtle Tree’s LF+ — the world’s first precision fermentation-derived lactoferrin — obtains access to the US market by achieving self-affirmed Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status. The ingredient can be used in plant-based milk, food and beverage products. The GRAS status lays the foundation for the brand’s commercialization in the US, aiming to fill gaps in the lactoferrin market.
