Bio2Mar is unique in offering a complete development chain from isolation of marine organisms, their identification, biomass production, and purification and structural characterization of biomolecules of interest. The core facility is based on multidisciplinary and interdependent expertise in microbiology, molecular biology and chemistry allowing valorization of marine biodiversity with in particular the valorisation of the chemical diversity resulting from this biodiversity.

These multidisciplinary approaches allow us to intervene in several areas of development for human health and well-being, and the environment. Beyond this blue biotechnology development vocation, the core facility's equipment and expertise can also contribute to research activities in various fields such as environmental quality, aquaculture, microbial ecology and chemical ecology.

OOB Bio2Mar multidisciplinary approaches and multiple fields
