chitin-glucan compounds are useful raw materials for manufacturing absorbent agents for water treatment, pharmaceuticals, nutritional products, artificial skin, among others.
The technology describes a process for the manufacture of chitin and chitin-glucan complexes from chitin-rich biomaterials such as mycelium of microfungi and/or exoskeletons of crustaceans. It uses compressed, hot, liquid water at temperatures and pressures below the critical point of water, called subcritical water, is a process of higher efficiency and the product obtained presents a proportion of chitin between 19% and 55%.
a bioinsecticide based on Bacillus thuringiensis var. israeliensis in a matrix of depleted mycelium of Pleurotus spp. fungus and its method of obtaining, in turn implements the circular economy since it obtains the mycelium of the fungus from fungiculture waste.
The invention consists of three main procedures: method of treatment of raw material (custard or mycelium of the fungus Orellana pleurotus spp), procedure for the preparation of the broth and process for the implementation of mixing between the broth with the raw material.
a device to control the humidity of the coffee harvest, which uses a 200-gram sample and an electronic mechanism to notify the farmer about the ideal moment for its commercialization.
technology that allows determining the Soil Energy Reserve (RES) to define soil productivity in detail, reducing costs and efforts in land preparation, water use for irrigation and fertilizer application.
The product of this invention is an energetic map of the crop that manages to differentiate zones of high RES (higher productivity) and zones of low RES (lower productivity) with the objective of establishing a differential fertilization strategy with a faster, more economical and precise method than the traditional soil analysis system, since it has been proven to reduce fertilization costs by up to 30%.
Whitefly is a formula that has control agents to attack the whitefly pest! It works for species such as aleurotrachelus socialis and bemisia tabaci, since it exerts a different action on larval stages.
