Advancing agriculture and environmental solutions
Bioprocess technology plays a critical role by supporting both the agriculture and environmental sectors. Within agriculture, it enables the production of eco-friendly biofertilizers and biopesticides, while facilitating advancements in crop breeding through plant cell culture techniques. In the environmental sector, bioprocess technology aids in monitoring and remediating polluted sites, contributing to sustainable bioproduction practices that help preserve ecosystems. Its versatility and eco-friendly applications make bioprocess technology a key player in promoting agricultural sustainability and environmental stewardship.
Agriculture and environmental challenges
Sustainability
Addressing the crucial challenge of balancing agricultural productivity with environmental conservation is paramount. Agriculture's demands often strain vital resources like water and soil, resulting in degradation and biodiversity decline. Concurrently, pollution and climate change in the environmental sphere pose imminent threats to ecosystems and human well-being.
Resource efficiency
Agriculture demands extensive quantities of water, energy, and land, leading to inefficiencies and resource depletion. Likewise, environmental remediation endeavors often consume significant resources and time, necessitating efficient solutions to streamline resource utilization.
Data management and analysis
Both the agriculture and environmental sectors generate vast amounts of data from various sources, posing a challenge in managing and analyzing it effectively to inform decision-making. This data is crucial for continuous monitoring of key process parameters in agricultural and environmental settings, ensuring optimal conditions for desired outcomes.

See allAs the workhorses of life, proteins fulfil a variety of functions in our bodies. If their functionality is limited or missing, diseases can arise. Therefore, proteins and their production are a central key to research. Whether protein expression is to be controlled for experimental, biotechnological, or medical applications, the use of cells is often mandatory. Many researchers repeatedly face the same challenge of producing complex target protein fast and cheap. Transient transfection of recombinant plasmids (rpDNA) in mammalian cells is a popular method for this purpose. In the following article, we look at the success story of research assistant Damian von Blarer, who must produce specific regions of the famous SARS-CoV-2 spike protein for efficiency studies of a rapid test – for this he needs plasmids, and we show which questions you need to answer to produce and amplify them easily yourself.
