Sunflower byproducts for sustainable food
Years active: 2024This project uses sustainable processing to transform sunflower meal into a protein-rich, eco-friendly ingredient for human food.
Upcycling wheat bran for fermentation
Years active: 2024This project called Wheat-UP will upcycle wheat bran into new ingredients for hybrid foods using oils from yeast and mycelium protein biomass.
Microalgae for sustainable cultivated meat
Years active: 2024This project uses microalgae to recycle mammalian cell culture media and create amino acids for growth supplements for cultivated meat production.
Green downstream processing
Years active: 2024This research project intends to develop an innovative approach for downstream processing of precision fermentation biomasses.
Upcycling of side streams
Years active: 2024Over 20% of plant protein is underutilized. This project addresses that challenge by developing more efficient protein recovery.
Cost-effective meat-like protein production
Years active: 2024New protein extraction processes will be developed for yeast-based meat proteins to reduce costs and negative environmental impact.
Conversion of fish fibroblasts to muscle cells
Years active: 2023Utilize bioinformatics to characterize cell populations in fish muscles, employing this data to directly convert fish fibroblasts into muscle cells.
