A world-first in biological pest control

Sero-X is a bold next step in environmentally responsible pest control for the food and fibre industries in Australia and around the world. Developed in collaboration with some of the world's most reputable research scientists, Sero-X represents over 15 years of dedication to sustainable agriculture.

It is an APVMA registered crop protection product - formulated from a plant with exceptional pest behaviour-modifying and insecticidal properties. It minimises damage from a number of insect pests across a broad range of target crops.

The science behind Sero-X

Sero-X is a plant-extract bio-pesticide containing a revolutionary set of peptides as its primary active compounds - known as cyclotides. The discovery of cyclotides is set to transform our global approach to pest control. As a milestone in agricultural science, Sero-X was the first new active constituent to ever pass the regulatory approval requirements for Australian agricultural research and development.

Research was conducted alongside institutions including:

  • Biological Products for Agriculture (Bi-PA)
  • Southern Cross Plant Science
  • University of Western Sydney
  • The Institute for Molecular Bioscience, University of Queensland
  • NSW Department of Primary Industries
