This Feasibility Fund project explored the use of oil extracted from fish industry waste to create an eco-friendly, high-value, biobased surfactants, an innovative approach that could ensure affordability and align with sustainable practices.
Read MoreThis project assessed the effect of growth media formulation and time of harvest on the growth rate, biochemical composition, and digestibility of a selection of phytoplankton maintained at CCAP, and identified two strains of commercial interest.
Read MoreThe Antibody Company (TAC) has expertise in point of care diagnostics for the aquaculture and brewing industries, which both suffer significant product losses. Current diagnostics for these industries are prohibitively expensive and take too long allow immediate mitigation. TAC combined their expertise in antibody design and production with Dr. Mulheran and his team’s skills in antibody conjugation to design a cheap and effective lateral flow device (LFD).
