MAHEK is our attempt to keep that alive - sustainably. Conventionally, cuminaldehyde is obtained either by extracting essential oils from cumin seeds, generating substantial biomass waste, or by energy-intensive petrochemical synthesis, which contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. We engineered Pseudomonas putida F1 to biosynthesise cuminaldehyde, the warm spicy note behind countless fragrances and flavours, offering a greener alternative to fossil-fuel-based synthesis and inefficient natural extraction.
