Cultivation of Probiotic Bacteria/ Cell Cultures on Bioreactors
SERVICE DESCRIPTION:
By using FerMac 310/60 Bioreactor Fermenter, we are able to cultivate aerobic and anaerobic probiotic bacteria but also cell cultures ( on lab scale) http://www.electrolabtech.co.uk/Bioreactor_Fermenters/Fermac_31060.aspx By using Steam in place microbial fermenters BioPro™ Evo Series™, we can provide trials on bioconversion/ bacterial growth on large scale ( 20L) .

Antimutagenic activity of plant extracts
SERVICE DESCRIPTION:
Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100. Antimutagenic properties elicited by plant species have a full range of prospective applications in human health. Herbal remedies and phytotherapy drugs, containing active principles are currently developed to protect against electrophile (e.g free radical) attack on DNA and its widespread outcomes such as ageing and cancer. The occurrence rate of cancer is increasing worldwide and the determination of chemopreventive or chemoprophylaxis compound is important in the effort to reduce the risk of cancer. A plant extract indicating antimutagenicity is not necessarily an anticarcinogen; however, it is an indication of possible candidates for such purposes

Bioconversion of agrifood waste on valuable organic chemicals
SERVICE DESCRIPTION:
By using controlled fermentation and targeted strains we can design liquid state fermentation and solid state fermentation on wastes, aiming to obtain valuable organic chemicals. Moreover, we are able to convert by solid-state fermentation of some low cost agro-industrial residues into microbial lipids (“single-cell oil – SCO”), enriched with essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) (such as γ-linolenic acid). Using the suitable fungi we can also improve the phenolic yield in solid state fermented substrates.
