Sustainable metal extraction in the circular economy
Microorganisms from the BRAIN bioarchive extract precious metals from e-waste, ashes, slags and other waste streams in an environmentally friendly way.
Innovation examples
As part of its growth strategy, BRAIN has established an attractive development pipeline with R&D projects for its own product candidates. These new product development activities are in various stages of development and are constantly fueled with new validated product ideas.
Calorie-free plant-based sweeteners
Our DOLCE R&D program was completed at the end of 2020, and gave rise to two approaches for BRAIN and the food industry.
Bio-based freshness and product stability
Edible plants provide bioactive compounds that combat harmful organisms. BRAIN’s FRESCO program identifies the best anti-microbial candidates.
Healthy food without an off-taste
Based on unique cell-based assay systems, within its SALT programs BRAIN focusses on the reduction of salt in foods.
Biological wound management
Aurase® is an enzymatic active ingredient developed by BRAIN for the treatment of open wounds. The active mechanism was inspired by the common green bottle fly.
Natural compounds to trigger taste and skin sensations
In the TRiP2Application programs, BRAIN offers unique cell-based assay systems for the identification of novel ingredients for food & cosmetics. In addition, cell models developed by BRAIN enable the development of biological deodorants and aluminum-free antiperspirants.
