Inovacel at ICAB
Research resulting from INOVACEL is presented at ICAB – 1st International Congress on Algae Biotechnology
The INOVACEL project was present at ICAB – 1st International Congress on Algae Biotechnology, with the active participation of two members of the research team.
Researcher Joana Rosa (S2AQUAcoLAB) presented the project’s initial laboratory results, focusing on the replacement of animal serum with microalgae-derived serums, applicable in in vitro cell cultures.. This innovative approach aims to promote more sustainable and ethical solutions in food biotechnology, reducing dependence on animal products.
This work is part of the initial phase of the project, where different formulations of microalgae extracts are being tested in order to assess their potential to support cell growth and viability.
Pedro Moñino Fernández (GreenCoLab) presented a scientific poster showing an integrated view of the project, detailing the laboratory methodologies currently being used by GreenCoLab. This participation helped to publicize INOVACEL’s advances to the international scientific community, strengthening opportunities for future collaboration and synergies.
With this double contribution, INOVACEL reaffirms its commitment to greener cellular aquaculture, based on the intelligent and sustainable use of microalgae as a biotechnological resource with high potential.
