FRUTALGA has demonstrated the potential of advanced technologies to transform fruit waste into high value-added ingredients. The project has combined renewable energy generation with the production of natural extracts for cosmetic applications and microalgal biomass with potential for other industrial applications. The FRUTALGA project, funded by the Agència Valenciana de la Innovació (AVI), has been…
Read moreAINIA has concluded the RAMDETEC project, focused on the research and development of technologies for the early detection and control of resistant bacteria in food products. This initiative responds to one of the main current challenges in food safety: antimicrobial resistance, considered by international organisations as a growing threat to public health. Advances achieved in…
Read moreReducing the carbon footprint and advancing towards a circular economy are the objectives that have guided the development of the COMBOI project, driven by AINIA with the support of the Valencian Institute for Business Competitiveness (IVACE) and FEDER funds. The project has demonstrated that it is possible to convert greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide…
Read moreThe BIOPROSPECT project, developed by AINIA with the support of IVACE and European funding, focuses on the search and evaluation of microorganisms with functional properties for use in food and health applications. The initiative has succeeded in isolating more than 100 strains and launching a platform that facilitates their analysis and selection, contributing to biotechnological…
Read moreWithin the framework of the PHARMANOVA II project, AINIA has developed new biotechnological solutions based on plant by-products to treat inflammatory diseases of the colon, such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. To achieve this, four key technologies have been used: in vitro technology based on 3D cellular models, separation technologies, chemical characterisation technologies and…
