Soft Biotechnology Balancing
Nature and Humans

Welcome to my website!
 

For several years I am developing strategies and product precursors to substiute conventional commodities through inventions based on a selected regenerative resource.
Anticipating that the extensive overexploitation of fossile and natural resources will possibly lead to an ecological collapse with greater and more continuous impacts than the presently foreseeable global crisis of economics, I am focusing my efforts on biodegradable products only.

The projects are based on the complex microbial community named "Sugary Kefir" (Water Kefir), which not only synthesizes a biopolymer not utilized all over the world to date, but exhibits additional unique features. For example, its biotechnological production will relaease almost no waste products.

 


Current/Future Projects
 
Novel Bioplastics
Advantages: very cheap - by maximum as expensive as conventional plastics, but cheaper than competitive bioplastics. Planned utilization: package materials for mass products.
Paper Substitutes
Innovative papers void of cellulose. Due to the production process, ecological balancing will be much better than for conventional papers - paper production without wood consumption, bleaching, and pollution of waters.
Depot Fertilizers
... for the recultivation of agriculture in the dry zones of the earth: combined storage of humidity and fertilizers together with microorganisms increasing plant vitality.
Fitness Drinks
Improvement of the classical beverage named "Water Kefir" by definitely stopping the fermentation process without decreasing its biological value.
Tolerable Antibiotics
Based on an innovative process, the organism exhibits strong antibiotic properties. Using this as a starting point, well tolerable antibiotics with effectivenesses against a number of pathogenic microorganisms will be developed.
