Caption
Spirulina under a microscope. Lumen Bioscience researchers engineered spirulina to biomanufacture a natural enzyme that they've shown destroys methanogens, the microbes in cows' rumen that produces methane gas, within minutes. The lysin-containing spirulina are so effective at killing methanogens that adding a tiny amount to the cow’s diet is enough to make them methanogen-free.
