Project Title The valorisation opportunities of natural products, separated from secondary resources throung biorefining process
Project Registration Code PN-III-P1-1.1-PD-2016-0892
Project Acronym BIOPHENOL
Purpose and project planning The aim of this project is establishing valorisation opportunities of natural products, separated from secondary resources by biorefining process. The biological activity refers to the antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal activity, as well as to the processes of germination, growth and development of some medicinal plants. Finally we will analyze the chemical composition of the volatile oil obtained from the treated plants. The natural source of polyphenolic compounds is represented from forested waste. For this reason the polyphenolic extracts will be characterized by their total and individual content of polyphenols, tannins and flavonoids. The results will be achieved by: obtaining natural products with antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal activity or with bioregulators, compatible in the ambient field.
