Project description
Here it is tested whether the bioprocess and the bacteria of the MELiSSA system, can withstand
space travel and can be 'stored' under space flight conditions in a technologically relevant manner
(i .e. with/without carrier material and/or in consortia vs. pure culture) in such a way that they can
be reactivated and the bioprocesses can be recovered efficiently after space flight.
