Dragon Associates occupies a unique niche position in the area of fermentation and biotechnology consulting by providing on-site consultancy services. The advantages are a much lower cost than off-site strain improvement services and also the development of your strains and processes in-house avoids the scale-up problems which occur when transferring strains and processes from one location to another. An additional benefit is the training of in-house staff which occurs during on-site consultancy.
