•  More immune-consistent across geographies and
                       seasons.

               In short: more human.


               Because the body doesn’t care how clever the process was.
               It cares how stable the outcome is.

               And with AI, that outcome no longer needs perfect
               conditions.
               Just the right intelligence to see the pattern through the
               noise.


               Step 7: Quality Control and Standardization

               Biologics—whether grown in a reactor or a romaine—must
               meet rigorous standards. Every batch must be tested for
               protein identity, potency, purity, and consistency. In plant-
               made systems, this involves:


                   •  Bioactivity assays to confirm therapeutic function
                   •  Protein quantification to ensure proper dosing
                   •  Microbial testing to confirm absence of pathogens
                       or contaminants
                   •  Lot traceability, connecting each batch to its
                       source plant, growth conditions, and gene construct

               Standardization is critical: patients can’t take a different
               dose just because the plant grew faster this week. Through
               careful control of growing conditions, harvesting protocols,
               and processing, edible biologics can meet the same quality
               benchmarks as their injectable counterparts.
