Learning objectives
The main objective of the course is to provide students with adequate knowledge of biotechnologies applied to the production of biomass and bioproducts of industrial interest through the cultivation of heterotrophic and autotrophic organisms. In the first part of the course, photosynthetic organisms will be described from an evolutionary point of view, from anoxygenic bacteria to higher plants, focusing on the molecular aspects underlying the different strategies adopted for CO2 assimilation and biomolecules production. In particular, the importance of photosynthetic organisms in green chemistry will be described and how they can be included in numerous production processes. Subsequently, the main mechanisms and nutritional requirements underlying the production of biomass and biomolecules by heterotrophic organisms will be described, focusing on unicellular organisms and cell cultures of industrial interest. Students will therefore acquire skills related to biotechnological solutions for the exploitation of photosynthetic and heterotrophic organisms for the production of biomass and bioproducts with high added value providing examples for their possible use in the agro-industrial sector, in the production of novel food, nutraceuticals and cosmetics. During the laboratory activities, students will be involved in experiments related to the preparation and cultivation of autotrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms in model bioreactors for the production and analysis of metabolites of interest.

Attendance
As stated in the Teaching Regulations for the A.Y. 2022/2023, attendance is not mandatory. However, professors may require students to attend lectures for a minimum of hours in order to be able to take the module exam, in which case the methods that will be used to check attendance will be explained at the beginning of the module.
