During the process of transforming animal by-product into high value products is necesary to develop following actions:
B2.1 Formulation of chemicals based on collagen derivatives (in progress)
B2.2 Assessment of products suitability (in progress)
Protein based product validation
In order to validate the bioestimulant solution from hydrolysed product of wastewater and PAP, in vitro germination bioassays by dosing different concentrations were developed:
Study of the growth of Chinese cabbage and lettuce seeds by dosing different concentrations of biostimulant solution. Control sample of Chinese cabbage (a). Growth of Chinese cabbage using a dosage of 0.15 (b). Lettuce growth using a dosage of 0.15 (c).
Seeds growth by 19-42% with the optimal biostimulant dilution concentration in the range of 0.05-0.2%. ISO standard 16086-2 2012.
Validation of collagen hydrolysate as retanning agent
Leather obtained using protein based retanning agent
