Microorganismes and Biomolecules >> Socio Economical Impact
The success of the four research projects of this program contract LMB-CBS-2015-2018, will generate several positive impacts
In medicine, new antimicrobial agents to combat the alarming problem of resistance of pathogenic microorganisms
In agriculture, substitution of chemical fungicides by natural compounds
Food safety and conservation, replacement of chemical additives in foods by natural products such as “bacteriocins” and incorporation of Lactobacilli strains with good probiotic properties, in the form of biofilms, in fresh and fermented meat products
Animal nutrition, use of probiotics and their enzymes (phytases, ß-mannanases, ß-glucanases, xylanases, etc) as alternative to antibiotic growth promoters. Probiotics are living, non-pathogenic microorganisms and exert beneficial influence on the health and physiology of the host and overall progression in animal growth and performance
Use of agroressources as a renewable natural resource and energy for the production of interesting biological compounds that can be used in animal feed and as biofertilizers
Students (PhD, Masters and PFE) formation and establishment of relations with national and international industrials and scientifics.
