Biorecovery

Biorecovery

Biorecovery enriches biological molecules, cells and parts of cells into purified fractions that represent the end-products of bioprocessing. Typically these products have a high value: diagnostic biomarkers from biological materials, therapeutic proteins from microbial fermentation or cell culture, bio-active peptides from plant and animal tissues, and extracellular products from microbial fermentation. The goals of the research are to systematically relate properties of broad classes of molecules and biological entities to their retention on surfaces, and to use this knowledge to develop and model processes for recovery of purified biological products.
