Sustainable Alternatives for the Future of Food
Microbial biomass fermentation as a key solution to meet rising global protein demand. How microorganisms can produce nutritious, low-impact proteins, the current technical and economic challenges, and innovative projects like PROMISEANG that transform marine biowaste into high-quality sustainable protein sources.
PROMISEANG presents results at the I Transnational Congress of the Water Campus of Young Researchers
On 24th of September, at the I Transnational Congress of the Water Campus of Young Researchers in Ourense, researchers from the AA1 and BIA groups at the Universidade de Vigo presented the last results of PROMISEANG project aiming to obtain new proteins via microbial fermentation.
Upcoming Circularis Biocluster Webinar
On 22 October 2025, the Circularis BioCluster — bringing together the EU-funded projects VALORISH, ONE EARTH, and PROMISEANG — will host an open webinar on the valorisation of animal by-products. The session will explore innovative biotechnological solutions to transform side streams from the fishing and livestock sectors into valuable resources, contributing to a more sustainable and circular bioeconomy.
New review highlights the therapeutic potential of metal complexes with hydroxyflavones
A new review explores the anticancer and antimicrobial potential of transition metal complexes with hydroxyflavones.
It highlights structural features, biological activity, and future strategies for drug development and delivery. The study was co-authored by a PROMISEANG partner and acknowledges support from the project.
Circularis Biocluster: PROMISEANG shares technical milestones in first internal workshop
Partners from the Circularis Biocluster—PROMISEANG, VALORISH, and ONE EARTH—held their first internal workshop to share early results on valorising agri-food side streams.
Discussions covered advances in waste-to-value technologies like PUFA extraction, peptide production, and fermentation of marine by-products.
PROMISEANG Project Celebrates Milestones with First Review Meeting and a new General Assembly
PROMISEANG successfully completed its first Review Meeting and General Assembly, showcasing early progress on sustainable marine biomass valorisation.
Key achievements include biomass characterisation, substrate selection, and promising fermentation results toward high-value protein production.
