CUBIDES, Claudia; GUTIERREZ-CORTES, Carolina y SUAREZ, Héctor. Bioprospecting in food production: an approximation of the current state in Colombia. Rev. Fac. Nac. Agron. Medellín [online]. 2023, vol.76, n.1, pp.10227-10246. Epub 31-Ene-2023. ISSN 0304-2847. https://doi.org/10.15446/rfnam.v76n1.101705.
Microbial bioprospecting is the study and classification of microorganisms with industrial value. Different researches word wide are focusing on the study of natural molecules that can be used for medicine, agriculture and the environment, among others. In Colombia, marine bioprospecting has become highly relevant. Also, different universities and institutes are working on the study of the biodiversity and its applications. The aim of this review was to compilate the most important laws and decrees related with the use of the resources with commercial purposes. Also, the elucidation of the current state of bioprospecting in Colombia and the principal applications of microorganisms in the food production chain. The special focus of this review is to show the potential use of bioprospection on agricultural development of the country in order to change the conventional practices to eco-friendly process in food production. Also, this review proposes the bioprospecting of lactic acid bacteria as an alternative to use their biomass and metabolites for food preservation.
