EUROCAROTEN Workshop on Sustainable Production of Carotenoids - From Biosynthesis to Biotechnology

Country: 
Croatia
Date: 
16-10-2017 to 17-10-2017
Address: 

Trogir (Croatia)

Description: 

The Workshop, organized by WG1, will take place the days 16 and 17 of October 2017 in conjunction with the annual management committee and working group meetings (to be held on 17-18 October 2017) of the EU COST Action CA15136 – EUROCAROTEN. It will address recent developments in the fields of carotenoid biosynthesis, carotenoid biotechnology, carotenoid extraction and bioprocessing.

 

Main subjects include:

  • Carotenoid biosynthesis and accumulation (in all organisms);
