Marine Microorganisms: Cultivation Methods for Improving their Biotechnological Applications (MACUMBA)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2016,

Marine microorganisms form an almost untapped resource of biotechnological potential. However, its use is hindered by the low success rate of isolation of novel microorganisms and often by poor growth efficiency. Hence, the vast majority of marine microorganisms has not been cultivated and is often considered as ‘unculturable’. MaCuMBA aims at improving the isolation rate and growth efficiency of ...

"New Sources of Natural, Gastric Stable, Food Additives, Colourants and Novel Functional Foods" (COLORSPORE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

"Functional foods provide a buoyant growth sector and the use of carotenoids is the most dynamic not only as colorants but as food additives. One issue with these products is their instability both on the shelf and upon digestion. Recently, gastric-stable bacterial-derived carotenoid preparations have been discovered by members of this consortium and these 2nd generation carotenoid preparations, a ...
