BioBam Joins BIOVALSA: Innovative Valorization of Plant Biomass Waste in Valencia for Functional Bioplastic Production

  We are proud to contribute to BIOVALSA, an initiative supported by the Instituto Valenciano de Competitividad e Innovación (IVACE+i). This collaboration unites leading Valencian organizations such as AIMPLAS, VIROMII, Prime Biopolymers, UPV, and BioBam. The project focuses on transforming agricultural residues—such as rice straw and citrus prunings—into high-value bioplastics like polylactic acid (PLA) and polybutylene succinate (PBS), used across

BioBam at LongTREC meeting in Sweden

Our Teammate and PhD student Fabian Jetzinger, part of the LongTREC MSCA doctoral network, recently spent two months in Stockholm to collaborate with the developers of the isONpipeline tools. This pipeline, part of the OmicsBox Transcriptomics module, facilitates reference-free transcriptome reconstruction from Oxford Nanopore or PacBio long-read RNA sequencing data. Learning from their expertise and bringing in his own set

Genome Completeness Assessment with BUSCO

Constructing a high-quality genome assembly is a complex and challenging process. De novo assemblies often suffer from fragmentation, gaps, and various types of assembly errors, which can compromise downstream analyses. Ensuring the completeness and accuracy of these assemblies is essential for robust biological insights. This is where BUSCO (Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs) comes into play. BUSCO is a widely used

New Taxonomy Databases in OmicsBox

One of the new additions in OmicsBox 3.3 is the non-NCBI taxonomy databases for Kraken2. With this new feature, we provide users with a broader range of options for taxonomic classification, meeting diverse research needs. Taxonomic Classification with Kraken2 Kraken2 is a taxonomic sequence classifier that assigns taxonomic labels to DNA reads. It achieves this by examining the k-mers within

Combining Transcriptomes with TAMA Merge

In analyzing long-read RNA-sequencing data, defining a custom transcriptome by identifying novel isoforms is a complex yet essential task that can have far-reaching consequences for any downstream analyses. As long reads allow researchers to examine isoform diversity in significantly greater detail than short reads, long-read sequencing often reveals a large variety of isoforms not yet present in reference annotations, even

Understanding maSigPro Timecourse Results

Understanding how gene expression changes over time and in response to different conditions is crucial in biological research. On this matter, timecourse differential expression analysis allows researchers to track gene expression at multiple time points, uncovering dynamic patterns that provide insights into complex biological processes such as development, disease progression, and response to treatments.
