近日，智能微生态与生物制造实验室（i-Microbiome Lab）梁元可教授团队与企业合作申报的"微生物源羧甲基壳聚糖的研发"项目正式获批立项。本项目由梁元可教授指导、阎凌翔博士研究生牵头开展，执行期为 2026 年 8 月至 2029 年 7 月，立项经费 30 万元，所属研究方向为"壳聚糖生物制造（合成生物学）"。
Recently, the "research and development of microbial carboxymethyl chitosan" project declared by Professor Liang Yuanke's team in cooperation with enterprises in the Intelligent Microbiome and Biological Manufacturing Lab (i-Microbiome Lab) was officially approved. This project is led by Professor Liang Yuanke and Dr. Yan Lingxiang graduate students. The implementation period is from August 2026 to July 2029, with a project funding of 300,000 yuan. Its research direction is "chitosan biomanufacturing (synthetic biology)".
本项目依托实验室在合成生物学领域的科研积累，与长三角某生物科技企业合作开展微生物源羧甲基壳聚糖的绿色生物制造与产业化关键技术研发，旨在对接化妆品与功能材料等领域的应用需求，构建从菌种设计、发酵优化到下游提取纯化的完整工艺路线。
This project relies on the accumulation of scientific research in the field of synthetic biology in the laboratory, and cooperates with a biotechnology enterprise in the Yangtze River Delta to carry out the research and development of key technologies for the green biomanufacturing and industrialization of microbial carboxymethyl chitosan. It aims to meet the application needs of cosmetics and functional materials, and build a complete process route from strain design, fermentation optimization to downstream extraction and purification.
本次项目的顺利立项，是实验室在产学研合作方面迈出的坚实一步。通过本项目的实施，实验室将进一步打通"基础研究—技术开发—产业化应用"的链路，为后续科研成果的转移转化积累宝贵经验。同时，本项目也为阎凌翔等青年研究人员提供了独立牵头横向课题的实战机会，对提升其科研组织与工程转化能力具有重要意义。
The smooth establishment of this project is a solid step for the laboratory in terms of industry-university-research cooperation. Through the implementation of this project, the laboratory will further open up the link of "basic research — technology development — industrial application", and accumulate valuable experience for the transfer and transformation of subsequent scientific research results. At the same time, this project also provides a practical opportunity for Yan Lingxiang and other young researchers to independently lead horizontal projects, which is of great significance to improve their scientific research organization and engineering transformation capabilities.
