  • 1G sugar, 2G oils, 2G sugar, 2G sugar - agriculture, Agricultural sidestreams, Biosurfactants, Custom manufacturing, Demonstration (TRL 5-7), Detergents, Fatty acids, Fatty alcohols, Fermentation, Finished projects, Food, Food grade, Fucosylated carbohydrates, H2020 BBI-RIA, HMO, Lactose, MELs, Market sample production, Oils, Oils and derivatives, Personal and home care, Product recovery & purification, Rhamnolipids, Scale-up (TRL 4-6), Sialylated carbohydrates, Sophorolipids, Specialty carbohydrates, Used cooking oil, Vegetable oils, WP leader, Xylolipids

The CARBOSURF project aims to develop new biobased processes as well as products and solves bottlenecks in the fermentative production of biobased biosurfactants and specialty carbohydrates. Specifically, it targets different glycolipid biosurfactants with a wide range of application fields and specialty carbohydrates, i.e. complex Human Milk Oligosaccharides that find applications as neutraceutical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic ingredients.

Novosides
  • 1G sugar, Biocatalysis, Enzymes, FP7, Fermentation, Finished projects, Food, Glycosides, Other feedstock, Process development (TRL 4-5), Product recovery & purification, Scale-up, Scale-up (TRL 4-6), Small organic molecules, Specialty carbohydrates, Sugar, WP leader

The goal of the Novosides project is the development of biocatalytic processes for the glycosylation of small organic molecules such as flavonoids, alkaloids and steroids. Glycosylation can drastically improve both the physicochemical and biological properties of these molecules (e.g. slow release, improved solubility and stability, taste modification, drug targeting), but few biocatalysts are currently available to perform this modification cost-efficiently at industrial scale.
