DEPARTMENT OF BIOTECHNOLOGY AND FOOD SCIENCE

The Department of Biotechnology and Food Science is one of eight departments at the Faculty of Natural Sciences. Researchers at NTNU's Department of Biotechnology and Food Science study both basic questions as well as problems with practical applications. One of their main focuses is finding new applications for national marine resources, as exemplified by advanced biotechnological applications of alginate from seaweeds/bacteria, chitin/chitosan from crustaceans and fish gelatine. At the department, they are also working on isolating new marine microorganisms that can produce medicines and other valuable substances, and they employ gene technology and modern analytical methods to understand and optimize processes in bacteria. The department helped us by covering our expenses for rental of the laboratory, and gave us access to various lab equipment and chemicals. For this we are grateful – Thank you so much!
