General information
- Short Summary
- A Ukrainian scientific institute offers a melanin-containing biological preparation of complex action based on the Bacillus strain, which synthesizes biologically active substances, including melanin pigments, which are pro-humic compounds to increase the productivity of crops, protect against pathogens and improve soil fertility. The institute is interested in cooperation with bio-factories, and enterprises that specialize in the production of microbial biopreparations via license agreements.
- Full Description
-
The Ukrainian Scientific Institute has conducted research in the fields of microbiology, virology, and biotechnology during the last decades. Increasing productivity in crop production and obtaining environmentally friendly products is important for different countries. The use of biopreparations based on bacterial strains can provide a solution to this problem. The complex effect of the biopreparation is provided by biologically active substances produced by the strain.
The bacteria in the composition of the biopreparation synthesize phytostimulating compounds (succinic, hydroxyphenylpropionic, phenylacetic, phenylpropionic, indole-3-propionic, indole-3-acetic acids, butanediol, and other VOCs (volatile organic compounds), which allows you to effectively increase seed germination rates and crop growth. In addition to the positive effect of dark pigments on the structure and fertility of soils, the pigment exhibits the growth-stimulating activity of the auxin type and protects producers from the harmful effects of UV radiation, which leads to more effective and fast establishment of associative relationships with plants.
Effectiveness of the biopreparation:
- increasing the living biomass of the soil, increasing the yield by up to 25%;
- during the pre-sowing seed treatment, the mass of the root of plants is increased the germination of seeds increases, and the disease of plants decreases.
Biopreparation production is possible in suspension forms. It is possible to create a dry form.
Shelf life is 1 year.
It is recommended the pre-sowing seed treatment and during of the period of vegetation. It can be used with tank mixes.
The institute is interested in international cooperation under the terms of a commercial agreement with technical assistance. The Institute has experience in such cooperation with domestic and foreign enterprises.
According to the commercial agreement with technical assistance, bacterial strains, scientific and technical documentation, the technology of obtaining a biological preparation, and scientific consultations are provided.
International cooperation is foreseen under the terms of a non-exclusive license. The Institute has the experience of such cooperation with domestic and foreign enterprises;
According to the license agreement, the strains of bacteria are transferred as well as the scientific and technical documentation so the scientific consultations can be granted. - Advantages and Innovations
-
Unique features of the melanin-containing biopreparation are:
- the complex action of the biopreparation is ensured by the xylanolytic, amylolytic, and cellulolytic activity of the strains, the synthesis of melanin-precursors of humus. The biopreparation suppresses the development of pathogenic microflora, promotes the growth and development of plants, and cleans the soil;
- melanin pigments synthesized by bacteria are identical to humic substances, which are the basis of soil fertility, therefore the biopreparation can effectively increase it;
- melanin pigments protect the biopreparation from the harmful effects of sunlight, therefore, unlike other biofertilizers and biological preparations, the melanin-containing biological preparation can be used both during the day and in the evening;
The biopreparation possesses the ability to positively influence the health of plants and soils at the same time. - Stage of Development

Partner Sought
- Expected Role of a Partner
-
The Institute looking for enterprises specializing in the production of microbial preparations, and biofactories, can introduce licensed biotechnology into production.
For production, it is necessary the availability of equipment implementation at the enterprise. According to the license agreement, the Institute transfers strains of bacteria, scientific and technical documentation, and discloses the process of biopreparation. If necessary, counseling on the terms of additional agreements is possible. - Type and Size of Partner
