Our Mission

Our Mission

From Microbiome to Medicine

From Microbiome to Medicine

At Expora, we radically improve the manufacture and design of Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles (BEVs) to accelerate research and commercialization of BEV therapeutics and health products.

BEVs mediate communication between the microbiome and human cells and hold extraordinary biotechnologic potential. However, commercialization of BEVs has been blocked by lack of scalable manufacturing processes, until now.

Expora makes BEVs dramatically easier to access and simpler to incorporate into product development via proprietary processes to manufacture and design BEVs from beneficial, proven-safe probiotics to meet customer needs across three industries:

Pharma: Therapeutic delivery and cell therapy alternatives. Best-in-class consistency and quality.

Research: Uncover how the microbiome communicates with human cells via production and rigorous characterization of BEVs from virtually any strain.

Consumer: BEVs consistently deliver health benefits of probiotics withiout risks of cells' variable viability/potency. Expora's BEV manufacturing costs are on par with live probiotics (10X improved).

Our Vision

Our Vision

The gut microbiome controls immunity, brain function, and metabolism, driving an ~$8B probiotics market and emergin pharma applications.

Beneficial bacteria ("probiotics") generate BEVs—nanoscale vesicles that survive the GI tract and deliver potent bioactive cargo directly to gut tissues. But probiotics often underdeliver because they rely on live bacteria surviving manufacturing and storage and producing enough BEVs in vivo, with added safety risks in vulnerable patients.

The field needs a predictable, precise BEV dose at reasonable cost and quality. Until now, BEVs have been too costly and inconsistent to manufacture at scale—Expora’s patent-pending platform changes that by enabling industrial GMP BEV manufacturing and design.
