ABOUT
Molecule 46

Molecule 46 Ltd. is a biotech spin-off offering a unique patented technology for the diagnostic and separation of undamaged sperm, delivering a revolutionary solution to human infertility through assisted reproduction and enhanced livestock breeding with high-quality insemination doses.

The technology, based on the principles of natural fertilization, selects sperm with an intact acrosome, undamaged DNA, and progressive motility — increasing success rates of assisted reproduction methods including ICSI. It also enables freezing of selected sperm, benefiting infertile men, oncology patients, and healthy men in preventive sperm banking programs.

The company brings an innovative approach with a strong IP position and robust scientific research. The clear regulatory pathway is strengthened by an internationally recognised founder with a strong academic track record and proven founder/market fit for a large and fast-growing market. The technology further extends to livestock breeding, enabling high-quality insemination doses and in vitro embryo production for embryo transfer.

This project offers real social impact as well as endorsement from buyers and users.
