Introduction
  • The goal of Funtional Biomaterial Research Center is to develop natural biomaterials with a broad range of biological activities against human or livestock diseases caused by infectious/contagious pathogens, aging, inflammatory, and immune-mediated responses from natural resources (plants, microorganisms, and marine sources).
Research Areas
  • Construction of a natural product fraction library
  • Development of bioresource related to neutraceutics and cosmeceutics
  • Construction of bioassay system related to infectious and immune diseases
  • Development of mass-production technologies for useful biological compounds and research into practical technologies via field applications
