We are participating in a new project: BioRoboost – Fostering snythetic biology standardisation through international collaboration. The project aims set up an international collaborative network on synthetic biology standards. Synthetic biology as any other enginieering field relies on the use of well-defined, universal and robust standard components. However, defining biological…

We are very happy to introduce you to our new project: SinFonia. SinFonia aims to produce novel fluorochemicals in a biological way. The project wants to engineer the metabolically-versatile bacterium Pseudomonas putida to execute biofluorinations for generating novel fluoropolymers from renewable substrates. Why is that interesting? Materials containing the element…
