What Are Microbiome Solutions?
Microbiome solutions are the science-based ingredients — and the end-to-end development capabilities behind them — that help brands create products supporting the gut microbiome. Also known as biotics, this family spans prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics, alongside complementary enzymes and bacteriophage technology.
At ADM, that means the strain expertise, clinical evidence and manufacturing scale to move an idea from bench-top testing to full-scale production — with a partner whose microbiome and fermentation expertise is built on decades of experience.
With ADM, you get the full range of biotics from one partner. Explore each category to find the right fit for your next formulation.
ADM's prebiotic solutions, including Fibersol®, deliver digestive and metabolic support across a wide range of formats.

The Science Behind Our Microbiome Ingredients
Great microbiome ingredients start in the lab. Our From Lab to Life process takes every solution through multiple rigorous stages — from the first health focus and strain screening, through clinical studies, formulation and stability testing, to full-scale production and commercialization.
We begin by assessing future-forward trends, then get to work on strain development: pre-clinical evaluation using in vitro, cell culture and C. elegans models; omics analysis spanning genomics and metabolomics; microbiome analysis; and pilot, scale-up and stability testing. Favorable pre-clinical data are then tested in double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled human studies. The result is a best-in-class ingredients, clinically supported and ready for use in different formulations — coupled with industry-leading technical support.
