Neuartige Analysemethoden zur Selektion und Charakterisierung nachhaltiger Enzymsysteme
Abstract
At IFA Tulln novel enzyme-based processes for the production of value-added products from agricultural side streams and for recycling of plastics are very successfully developed. Currently, the identification of novel, more efficient and robust enzymes from Nature, called bioexploration, requires resource- and time-consuming procedures. The new research infrastructure will be used to improve our existing (value of 1.5 Mio Euro) highly sophisticated protein identification and separation instrumentation. The Eclipse NEON Field Flow Fractionation module will be used to characterize enzyme properties. The requested 1290II bio-inert HPLC Module will be used to enhance the digestion step of proteins (enzymes) necessary for their identification and characterization. The use of an on-column digestion system minimizes the usual short comings of the digestion steps such as degradation, oxidation and deamination reactions. Implementing this infrastructure enables us to produce high quality data and therefore being an attractive partner for other research institutions as well as industry partners for grants and general cooperations. A number of industrial and academic partners would strongly benefit from this infrastructure as demonstrated in LoIs.
