Characterization of fermentation processes and their bio-based derived products from the food industries – Remote access
Deadline for applications: 15 April 12:00 h
Pilot for the characterisation and safety testing of the complete fermentation process and bio-based products derived from fermentation used in food processing and food packaging.
The service aim is to offer and provide high quality services and demonstrate scientific knowledge and technical solutions to industrial food business operators and scientists on methods to adapt/improve food fermentation process and final food-derived products. The specific services include a consolidated approach encompassing methods in microorganisms' identification (metagenomics), microorganism characterization (metabolomics, metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics), chemical and omics composition (raw material or end-product), contaminants, biopolymers characterisation, migration studies, toxicity analysis, testing bioactivity of end products, etc.
The service is addressed to researchers/academics and companies engaged in food-related fermentation processes: food business operators, food packaging companies, ingredients suppliers, agrobusiness, food inspection agencies/bodies.
The service will be provided on remote access via several METROFOOD-RI service providers (EUT, IJZSRM, INSA and TUBITAK).
Free of charge access to the facilities will be provided (with no contribution to eventual shipping costs).
