The available database comprises research projects in Fisheries, Aquaculture, Seafood Processing and Marine Biotechnology active in the time period 2003-2022.
BlueBio is an ERA-NET COFUND created to directly identify new and improve existing ways of bringing bio-based products and services to the market and find new ways of creating value from in the blue bioeconomy.

"Enzymes are used in various industrial sectors (chemicals, food, (aqua) feed, agriculture, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, neutraceuticals). Nevertheless, the current available supply is limited, and there is a high demand for new, better and more versatile enzymes. The potential of alternative (including marine) enzymes is hardly explored, because this costs a lot of time and money for the industry. The EnzyMares project now wants to focus on screening marine sources such as bacteria, microalgae and diatoms. Thanks to recent molecular technology, it is possible to thoroughly screen potential enzymes in high-throughput. However, making the connection between these genome data on the one hand and functionalities of enzymes and reaction conditions on the other is a time-consuming process that also requires a lot of expertise. Within EnzyMares, a multidisciplinary consortium will develop a toolbox with which the specific characteristics of enzymes can be predicted based on a multi-omics approach. In this way, companies can accelerate the bioprospecting phase and make new enzymes available for the market."
