A new report shows that three widely used pesticides could jeopardize salmon. The pesticides are used on crops ranging from rice to corn and even cotton. Conservationist groups and the salmon industry are hoping the new opinion will help to push the EPA to ban the chemicals. Salmon have been waiting four decades for relief from toxic pesticides in many of our rivers. The agencies should do their job.

Why ISPE put peptide and oligo facility design in one guide

Why ISPE put peptide and oligo facility design in one guide

ISPE's new Baseline Guide covers oligonucleotide and peptide facility design in one document, says Jim Love of CRB. It pairs a GMP survey of existing plants with a sustainability outlook and a piping safety framework for scale-up, while FDA's oligonucleotide guidances under dockets opened in 2022 and 2024 remain the regulator's own reference.

  • 01Peptide plants inherited API chemistry thinking and oligo plants biotech thinking; ISPE’s guide puts both modalities in one facility document with both inheritances.
  • 02The guide has three parts: a GMP survey of existing oligo and peptide plants, a forecast of how sustainability and scale will change the processes, and a safety framework for connective piping and equipment.
  • 03FDA keeps its own oligonucleotide-specific guidances under dockets opened in 2022 and 2024, so the ISPE guide works as an industry consensus alongside regulation rather than in place of it.

Collagen builder Astrion outdrew AstraGin at NuLiv's Bangkok booth

Collagen builder Astrion outdrew AstraGin at NuLiv's Bangkok booth

NuLiv Science says Astrion, its collagen-building ingredient, drew more interest than AstraGin at Vitafoods Asia 2026 in Bangkok, held September 2 to 4. Brands also asked for probiotic strains for pet weight loss, children and women's health. A newly published AstraGin trial in Nutrients and a July 2026 Senactiv trial give the company fresh evidence for its older ingredients.

  • 01At Vitafoods Asia 2026 in Bangkok, Astrion drew more booth interest than AstraGin, NuLiv’s absorption flagship.
  • 02NuLiv says probiotic requests are now split by pet, child and life stage, and the show preview lists strains for women’s health, emotional wellbeing and the gut-muscle axis.
  • 03A newly published crossover trial in Nutrients found AstraGin raised branched-chain amino acid absorption and grip strength in adults aged 60 to 80.

Astrion drew more interest than AstraGin at NuLiv Science's Bangkok booth

Astrion drew more interest than AstraGin at NuLiv Science's Bangkok booth

NuLiv Science reported from Vitafoods Asia 2026 in Bangkok that collagen-building Astrion drew more interest than AstraGin, its absorption ingredient, as collagen and anti-aging products are heavily marketed and sold in almost every store, a company representative said. A 150-person trial published in Cosmetics in June 2025 found oral Astrion raised skin collagen 13.2%. Mordor Intelligence still puts North America at 37.95% of collagen supplement revenue, with Asia-Pacific growing fastest at 11.65%.

  • 01NuLiv Science expected AstraGin to lead in a new market; at Vitafoods Asia 2026 in Bangkok, its collagen-boosting Astrion drew more attention, the company said.
  • 02Oral Astrion raised skin collagen content 13.2% over 12 weeks in a 150-person, placebo-controlled trial published in Cosmetics in June 2025.
  • 03North America still held 37.95% of collagen supplement revenue in 2025 while Asia-Pacific grows fastest at 11.65% a year, Mordor Intelligence estimates, so the Asian pull is a growth story rather than a size story.
