Seeing #red - experimenting with light wavelength and intensity to enhance #pigment production in #algae Blue light is next! Thanks to MSc student Karen for giving the lab a pop of colour! #algae #biotech #bioprocessing #pigment

Nothing quite like getting organized for a new #experiment run. Stay tuned for more deets on this #probiotic project #probiotic #vaginalhealth #uct #bioprocessengineering

MSc student Katherine is #fermenting up a storm in the labs at the moment! She’s out to discover if she make “mahewu” or “mageu” using GRAS #lactobacilli strains. This could then potentially be used as a probiotic delivery vehicle that can promote a healthy #vaginal #microbiome

#sugarhigh in the lab today! MSc student Lesley is using discarded #candy waste to generate #biopolymer #PHB which is used in #bioplastic manufacturing

The SA economy is heavily dependent on coal – in fact, we’re addicted. ⛏️Switching to renewable energy is can be a game-changer. We support this shift. 💡🍃 Let government know you do too to #Renewthefuture and let nature keep the lights on. 👉bit.ly/3wVJZyG
