    How Do We Want to Run Our Economy and Production?

    The wastewater treatment plant is turned into a vegetable farm, bio-based substances recovered from waste are being utilized to prevent oxidative spoilage in food packaging or provide environmentally-friendly and safe water-repellent coatings on functional textiles. In the EVOBIO project coordinated by Fraunhofer IGB, 19 Fraunhofer Institutes are working on solutions for a sustainable economy.

    What is a bioeconomy?

    The bioeconomy, or biobased economy, is a new model for industry and the economy. It involves using renewable biological resources sustainably to produce food, energy and industrial goods. It also exploits the untapped potential stored within millions of tons of biological waste and residual materials.

    Baden-Württemberg and its networks

    As the transition from a fossil-based economy to a biobased economy requires fundamental changes, many stakeholders need to work together to achieve this goal. BIOPRO is therefore engaged in close dialogue with research institutions, companies, networks, associations and initiatives. Joint presentations at trade fairs, thematic collaborations, cooperation in concepts and activities result from this dialogue.

    Breakthrough: Cells can now be grown on 3D scaffolds

    Researchers from the DGF-Centre for Functional Nanostructures at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have succeeded in growing cells on three-dimensional structures. What is so fascinating about this method is that the cells are able to attach to special micrometre-sized handles on the scaffolds and nowhere else. The method used gives the researchers led by Professor Martin Bastmeyer full control over the formation of cell adhesion sites and…

    Bodo Philipp – the discovery of the general principles of bacterial interaction

    Dr. Bodo Philipp from the University of Constance specifically focuses on ecologically relevant activities of bacteria for example cell-cell interactions. His findings could prove effective in removing bacteria from areas where high levels of hygiene are required thereby making it possible to prevent life-threatening bacterial infectious diseases. Dr. Bodo Philipp uses the much feared Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria as model organisms for his…

    Artificial seed germination and premature ageing

    Farmers expect sugar-beet seeds to be of the highest quality. Seed producers such as Einbeck-based KWS SAAT AG use complex technologies to ensure that seeds start germinating immediately after sowing even under unfavourable environmental conditions. One of the techniques used by KWS SAAT AG involves a special method of seed preparation to ensure immediate germination. However the disadvantage of this special type of pretreatment is that the seeds…

    A plant hormone and growth in the dark

    All multicellular organisms including plants produce hormones. One of the hormones plants produce is the phytohormone jasmonic acid which has for a long time mainly been known as a second messenger substance that is released when plants are attacked by pathogens. Some years ago Dr. Michael Riemann from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology KIT discovered that jasmonic acid acts as a major growth regulator of phytochrome-mediated responses in…

    Biological nanopores on chips for determining the properties of molecules

    Researchers led by Prof. Dr. Jan C. Behrends and Dr. Gerhard Baaken from the University of Freiburg have developed a chip the size of a fingertip containing biological nanopores that determine molecule mass with great precision. Developing this new system which is a combination of biological and micro-technical components involved a great deal of technical skill. The system has the same level of sensitivity as a chromatography device but is much…

    DFG research group to unravel prokaryotic immune system

    It is difficult to believe that unicellular organisms such as archaea and bacteria can have developed sophisticated strategies to fight off foreign nucleic acids. However, many of these tiny organisms actually possess a virus defence mechanism known as CRISPR/Cas. Compared to this defence mechanism, protective mechanisms such as restriction and modification appear extremely clumsy indeed.
