| Description | A key outcome of this program has been relationship building with industry (in this case Croda and Unilever), enabling all parties to better appreciate challenges and opportunities evident to partners. At a technical level, shared insight into the structure and properties of renewable polysaccharides has underpinned thee new and developing relationships. |
| Exploitation Route | Following PI relocation to Manchester, further development of links to Croda and Unilever are emerging. Academic benefits are being realised through collaboration in Manchester on oxidative carbohydrate-processing enzymes. |
| Sectors | Agriculture Food and Drink Manufacturing including Industrial Biotechology |
| Description | To explore with industry the relationship between carbohydrate structure and properties, in support of homecare and personal care product applications. |
