−Removed: Revenue Recognition
−Removed: As described in Notes 2, 3 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company enters into contracts with customers that include enzyme supply, licensing, and collaborative research and development agreements.

−Removed: The Company makes significant judgments in determining revenue recognition for certain customer contracts.

−Removed: • Testing the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of internal controls relating to the Company's accounting for certain new and amended revenue contracts, including controls over identification of distinct performance obligations and material rights, the determination of the timing of revenue recognition, allocation of transaction price to distinct performance obligations, and the estimation of variable consideration.

+Added: and (v) recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

+Added: The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter.
