Bioboost: Innovative application of plants
Development of a plant biotechnology platform for low cost production of industrial enzymes to boost biorefinery of lignocellulose biomass.
NIBIO is a project driven research institute and collects approximately 100 million NOK annually in project funding from both national and international sources. A lot of activity is carried out through EU and EEA-projects and we also participate in research projects in Asia, Africa and Latin America. NIBIO coordinates several large international projects with a particular focus on food security and climate change. The list of projects is not complete.

Raspberry, blackberry and shallot are more and more used in our daily food. However, how can we grow good quality of these plants and produce them economically?
Sustainable management of aquaculture fish health through the development of low cost plant-derived vaccines, using vaccines against salmon pancreas disease and viral haemorrhagic septicaemia as case studies
Development of a cost-effective Romania-Norway joint plant-based technology platform for production of vaccines against human hepatitis viruses B (HBV) and C (HCV)
