The Story of Dr. Wolz – a success from the start
1965-69
Siegfried Wolz laid the foundation stone for the founding of the company back in the 1960s. Together with Prof. Dr. Feodor Lynen, the biotechnology engineer worked as his scientific assistant on the isolation of co-enzyme A from yeast cells. For this research, Prof. Dr. Lynen received the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1964.
1969
In 1969 Siegfried Wolz founded Dr. Wolz Zell GmbH. From then on, he researched and cultivated enzyme yeast cells in his own company – at times together with the renowned physician and biologist Dr. med. Dr. rer. nat. P.G. Seeger. As a courageous pioneer, he was firmly convinced that with enzyme yeast cells he could make an important contribution to the comprehensive care of the human body cell as the basis for maintaining the health of the entire organism.
