Enzyme Discovery Platform

Conference poster, 2012

Biomass treatment for the separation of its components and the modification of their properties requires a wide range of enzymes. Efficiency matters too, so multiple enzymes of the same activity need to be tested before they can be applied in a larger scale. We have launched the implementation of a strategic plan for the discovery of novel enzymes, starting from the isolation of new fungal strains from Vietnam and leading to the cloning and characterization of the enzymes of interest.
