Brief description of the organization’s activities:
We work on the valorization of marine biomass for the development of food products and alternative proteins
Sector(s) of involvement:
Food and feedYes
Role of the organization in the development and/or application of Blue Biotechnologies:
development of methods to valorize marine biomass for food, methodologies to characterize the techno-functional properties of marine biomass, methods to assess the digestibility of novel food products
Skills and services provided:
characterization of marine biomass, extraction of food proteins, digestibility of novel products, formulation of food products containing ingredients from marine biomass
Needs in terms of research, innovation, development, and/or application of blue biotechnologies:
We would need help mostly on the regulatory aspects to bring new food products based on marine biomass to the market, but also in finding ways to provide reliable sources of marine biomass for the industry to produce these novel foods
