Bioactive compounds from Olea europaea: investigation and application in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry Olive-Net is a multidisciplinary consortium gathered with expertise in olive chemistry and biology, consisting of academic facilities and industrial players from EU & associated countries as well as universities from Third countries. Its participants represent the whole value chain: starting from olive- derived raw material, to active ingredient production, to pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and cosmetic end-products’ commercialization. The goal of the research project is the exploration and exploitation of olive bioactive substances from the Olive tree (Olea europaea) for the development of novel cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. Products and side-products of the olive tree such as olive oil, edible olive fruits, olive mill waste and olive tree leaves, will be subjected to a series of state-of- the-art extraction and isolation cascades in order to provide extracts, enriched fractions and isolated compounds of high purity. All active ingredients will be identified and characterized with advanced analytical techniques as well as assessed for their safety and pharmacological effects with in vitro and in vivo assays. Within this project, core scientific multidisciplinary knowledge from different research areas will be integrated creating valuable synergies. An important contribution therefor is the well-balanced scheme of researcher’s secondments between universities and enterprises. Expertise will be transferred by means of the seconded researchers training in environments with different research orientation where complimentary skills are required. Olive-Net aspires to create a successful model promoting researchers’ competences and create long-lasting collaboration and synergies between Industry and Academia. This innovative network that joins focused scientific research with direct market requirements fits perfectly to the ALNuMed portfolio. ALNuMed as research-intensive company that develops spectroscopy based analytical solutions for quality assurance and control of food and natural products will be able to make a major contribution to the success of this project.
