Biotechnology
Food products do not only deliver nutrients in combination with indulgence. They also have special functions for improving the body’s defenses and human health. A reasonable use of ingredients such as prebiotics or probiotics in industrially processed food will contribute significantly to improving human health and promoting satisfaction and wellbeing of the population.

“Designing the future actively by research...”
The work of the DIL Biotechnology division focuses on the research and development of innovative products and processes that can be used for designing appealing and healthier food. Our work is not only centered on the addition or multiplication of useful microorganisms or the inhibition or reduction of undesired microorganisms, but also on the utilization of the special properties displayed by yeast.
