Verde Media Group Inc. Announces Target Acquisition and New Product Development

LOS ANGELES, March 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Verde Media Biotechnology Division ("VMBD") is in the advance negotiation stage for acquisition and partnership with a Massachusetts based technology-developing company for the production of high value bio-products. The target company has developed a microbial technology platform for the production of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) using economical and abundantly available feedstock. The alternative fermentation based process can convert sugars and organic waste products to omega-3 oils with high yields and specificity and therefore open new supply chains. Furthermore, the process is capable of producing high titre and concentration of omega-3 oils in the fermentation vessel.

The new platform technologies can achieve 500-800% increase in DHA levels in the microbial oils compared to fish derived oils. As a result, the microbial derived omega-3 oils have a niche place in the several billion-dollar cosmetic and medicinal markets. The development is in line with an increasing trend in demand mainly in the aquaculture industry ($100 billion) and food supplements ($30B). 

Dr. Abidi, Ph.D. CEO of VMBD stated, "We are excited with the addition of another high value bio-product to our growing portfolio of acquisition targets. The ability to convert sugar and non-sugar feedstock to omega-3 oil is more efficient than converting carbon dioxide gas to oils and provides a competitive advantage to all other technologies. Furthermore, carbohydrate to omega-3 oil is a sustainable, renewable and eco-friendly process that can be rapidly scaled-up to commercial production."
