Microbial Biomanufacturing

Microbial biomanufacturing harnesses microorganisms as versatile platforms for the sustainable production of high-value bioproducts. Our research focuses on developing fermentation-based platforms for microbial production of biomaterials and other value-added compounds, with current work centered on microbial hyaluronic acid production. We investigate microbial cultivation and bioprocess optimization while exploring renewable and waste-derived feedstocks, such as crude glycerol, as potential substrates for sustainable biomanufacturing.
