STIM4+

Integrated use of the next generation plant biostimulants for an enhanced sustainability of field vegetable high residue farming systems

National projects

Technological modular and interconnected platforms for an optimized conversion in market-demanded bioproducts of side-streams specific to Romanian bioeconomy

The objective of the project is to provide the conversion of side-streams resulted from the Romanian bioeconomy into (bio)products and (bio)materials with high added value

Research on sustainable technologies for obtaining and valorising innovative functional ingredients and foods, for nutritional equilibration of the modern consumer’s diet

The objective of the project is the valorisation by sustainable technologies of side-streams from the food industry to obtain ingredients or innovative foods which combine various vegetal and/or animal sources

Better harnessing of Trichoderma biotechnological potential for biorefinery and as plant biostimulants by controlled development and biosynthesis

Project TOTAL aims to investigate and integrate abiotic modulation and epigenetic control of Trichoderma strains within the context of Trichoderma interactions with biomass and living matter, for better harnessing of Trichoderma potential

Biogenic nano-system for targeted delivery of bioactive ingredients on dysbiosis biofilm involved in gingivitis and periodontitis – BioNanoGum

Biogenic nano-system for targeted delivery of bioactive ingredients on dysbiosis biofilm involved in gingivitis and periodontitis

Superior valorisation of bioresources through advanced (bio)chemical eco-technologies

The objective of the project is to valorise the side-streams from agriculture and food industry and to obtain products with high added value, such as food supplements and plant biostimulants.

Biosynthesis of selenium nanoparticles with amplified bioactivity

The object of the project is to obtain selenium nanoparticles bio-synthesized by microorganisms, especially benefial filamentous fungi, with applications in agronomical biofortification.
