Project description
This StartTT proposal aims (i) to enzymatically produce a set of phenolic antioxidants that differ in position and degree of glycosylation, (ii) to evaluate their properties regarding reactivity and solubility, and (iii) to explore the market for industrial partners for future valorization and development of suitable products. This project is meant as proof-of-concept to demonstrate the potential of a cost-effective production of tailor-made antioxidant for industrial application.
