MDT micro drive technology

Proprietary technology for extracting high-purity bacterial metabolites with maximum biological activity. Activating Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR) and Systemic Acquired Resistance (SAR) for total crop protection and abiotic stress resilience.

Technology overview

MDT (Micro Drive Technology) is Kingenta's proprietary biostimulant platform engineered to harvest biologically active bacterial metabolites. By utilizing a non-destructive low-temperature process, MDT preserves the purity and potency of sensitive signaling compounds, delivering targeted physiological activation to crop receptors.

High-purity bacterial metabolite extraction

MDT uses specific bacterial extracts obtained through an advanced low-temperature extraction system. Unlike aggressive chemical or high-heat processing methods, this non-destructive process retains 100% of the natural metabolite structure, enzymatic peptides, and signaling compounds.

The resulting bio-active compounds exhibit high specificity when binding to plant physiological receptors, triggering rapid intracellular responses that prepare crops to cope with severe biotic pathogens and abiotic stress conditions.

Mechanism of action

MDT activates interconnected cellular defense pathways within the plant, establishing a state of physiological pre-arming known as Priming.

ISR · induced systemic resistance

ISR is a physiological defense response induced by beneficial microorganisms and bacterial extracts. Its activation is mainly associated with the metabolic pathways of jasmonic acid and ethylene, protecting roots and localized plant tissues against pathogen ingress.

SAR · systemic acquired resistance

SAR establishes broad-spectrum systemic protection throughout the entire plant vascular system. Mediated by salicylic acid signaling, SAR pre-arms non-infected foliage, stems, and reproductive organs against secondary pathogen attacks.

Priming effect

ISR & SAR activation generates a physiological state known as Priming. In this state, the plant remains pre-armed to respond faster, stronger, and more intensively when external drought, heatwave, salinity, or pathogen stress occurs, without expending unnecessary energy during normal growth.
