TWB and Hamilton have collaborated for 18 months to develop an innovative bioprocessing platform for the in-depth characterization and culture optimization of microorganisms. This platform, with 24 integrated mini-bioreactors (50 mL), will significantly speed up the process to develop industrial bioprocess solutions for a wide range of applications in green chemistry (e.g. chemicals, enzymes, biopolymers,… Read more »

IBISBA is a European research infrastructure for industrial biotechnology. It aims to bridge a gap by constructing a continuum between academic research and industry, by translating industrial and socioeconomic constraints into scientific and technical questions that can integrated into early stage biocatalyst design and bioprocess development. It is expected that IBISBA will provide a major… Read more »
