From sea-bed to test-bed: harvesting the potential of marine microbes for industrial biotechnology (SeaBioTech)
Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2016,
SeaBioTech is a 48-month project designed and driven by SMEs to create innovative marine biodiscovery pipelines as a means to convert the potential of marine biotechnology into novel industrial products for the pharmaceutical (human and aquaculture), cosmetic, functional food and industrial chemistry sectors. SeaBioTech will reduce barriers to successful industrial exploitation of marine biodivers ...

BlueGenics – From gene to bioactive product: Exploiting marine genomics for an innovative and sustainable European blue biotechnology industry (BlueGenics)
Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2016,
Marine organisms, in particular sponges and their associated microorganisms, are an inexhaustible source of novel bioactive (lead) compounds for biomedical application. Industrial exploitation of this natural resource using traditional approaches is, however, hampered, with a few exceptions, by unsolvable supply problems - despite of numerous efforts in the past. Therefore, there is, very likely, ...

The Application of Edible Seaweed for Taste Enhancement and Salt Replacement (TASTE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
"The main objective of the TASTE project is to develop flavour ingredients from edible seaweeds (Ascophyllum nodosum, Saccharina latissima, and Fucus vesiculosus) with the potential to replace sodium in food products. This can be done through two options, namely flavour enhancing properties or mineral content.Health authorities worldwide have recommended reducing salt in processed foods in order t ...

Exgenome Molecular Enzymes (EXGENOMES)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
"The main objective of the EXGENOMES project is to develop new and improved thermostable enzymes for use, as reagents, in large-scale DNA synthesis and/or that can act on unnatural components such as in LNA (Locked Nucleic Acids). The target source for the new enzymes is a range of self-replicating mobile genetic elements (phages, plasmids and transposons) from thermophilic bacteria. Increased un ...
