Quantification and optimization of the enzymatic activities

The discovery of fast acting insect enzymes in water at room temperature on plastics opens a new world of research.

Can we optimize the enzyme production and activity? How do these enzymes act?
These are some of the questions we are prioritizing in view of the application of the wax worm enzymes in the management of plastic residues.

Characterization of the degradation products using PE and other polyolefins

The identification of the PE degradation products forms the basis for further exploration for a) acquiring information on the full potentiality of the enzymes’ activity and the full spectrum of degradation products and b) developing applications of the technology in a plastic recycling/upcycling economy.

Portfolio of enzymatic activities

Widening the exploration of enzymatic activities with capacity of degrading plastics will open new frontiers using insects as a bioremediation tool.
