Senomyx

Our Business

We seek to be the leader in discovering new and improved proprietary flavor and fragrance molecules for use in a wide range of consumer products. Our integrated technology platform combines an enhanced understanding of the biology of taste and smell with many of the same technologies and advancements that pharmaceutical companies have recently begun using to more efficiently discover new medicines. We have entered into a product discovery and development collaboration with Kraft Foods, Inc., the largest branded food company in the U.S. We have also entered into technology collaborations with Aurora Biosciences Corporation and Incyte Genomics, Inc. in order to enhance our technology platform and gain access to additional intellectual property.





Our Technologies



We are designing and assembling a proprietary technology platform to enhance and industrialize the discovery process and overcome many of the limitations of traditional discovery programs for new flavor and fragrance molecules. Our team of world-class scientists and industry experts is incorporating recent advancements in receptor biology, combinatorial chemistry, high-throughput screening and bioinformatics into an integrated technology platform designed to enable the rapid, efficient discovery of new and improved proprietary molecules. Examples of potential product molecules include those that block the bitter taste of coffee, molecules that increase the salty taste of low sodium snacks and molecules that block unpleasant odors.
