Definiton of Biotouch

Hi Biotouch-bloggers, below is Juha Mentus definition of his blog Industy Microbiologist, but we need a more "generic definition" for BIOTOUCH.

Please, post new ideas that could be used to define the content of the BIOTOUCH blog.

This blog contains novel ideas for the development of paper industry microbiology. Traditional methods, despite their important role in the selection of harmful microbes from process and product samples, does not fulfill the needs of modern HACCP and process stability control. Faults in the process management as well as in the QC of products can cause hazardous situations for the economy of production as well as for the safety of employers, customers and environment.

Helge suggests a small revision, but I guess this isn't complete yet:

This blog contains novel ideas for the development of biotechnology and microbiology. Traditional methods, despite their important role in the selection of harmful microbes from process and product samples, does not fulfill the needs of modern HACCP and process stability control. Faults in the process management as well as in the QC of products can cause hazardous situations for the economy of production as well as for the safety of employers, customers and environment.

We should include aspects of risk management in eg. water treatment and fresh water supply, etc. I also spoke with Elias over the phone about how to present a biorefinery innovation project to investors and sponsors.

I'm happy for your comments. Macarena will make the changes in "settings" when we have a good definition that helps to profile BIOTOUCH. Also, send pictures to Macarena or me to be added to the posts to visualize our messages.

• Personal pictures needed for interviews
• Process pictures
• Product pictures of PMEU and how it's used

Make sure that you are the copyright owners of the pictures.

Best regards,
Helge
