Biochemistry and Biotechnology (BBT)

Español

The research group “Biochemistry and Biotechnology” (BBT) consists of professors of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Burgos. This group has extensive experience in enzyme biotechnology for application in the food industry and environmental. The research conducted covers aspects such as the microbial production of enzymes, biochemical characterization, and stabilization of biocatalysts (enzymes and cells) using different immobilization techniques. The scientific and technical research is also directed towards food authentication by using molecular biology techniques, study of food allergens, immunodetection of proteins and development of nanoencapsulation processes for the design of therapeutic enzymes.
