This project aims to develop an eco-friendly method for producing guanine crystals using genetically modified yeast. These crystals serve as a sustainable alternative to Titanium dioxide in various industries, including food and cosmetics, while maintaining superior optical properties and stability.
The superior optical properties and stability of Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has made the material attractive to many industries, for use in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
Despite these benefits, the wide use of TiO2 has raised significant health concerns, culminating in the 2022 European Union's decision to ban its use as a food additive.
This regulatory shift has precipitated an urgent demand for healthier, environmentally sustainable alternatives that do not compromise on performance.
