Transformative microbiological inputs for innovative winemaking

Wine is the ultimate culmination of a plethora of complex biological processes. Accordingly, most inputs (even when excluding grape must) are biologically based and include commercial yeasts, bacteria and enzymes used in processing. Classically, the development of improved biological inputs has resolved around phenotypic selection, in which organisms with improved characteristics are specifically chosen for further use or as a breeding stock. As selection relies on genetic variation, mutagenesis is often used to increase the pool of variation available. However, standard mutagenesis/selection is a random process, in which isolates with the required alteration must be identified from a background of thousands of strains. Classical strain development is therefore resource intensive, which ultimately limits the scope of research that can be undertaken.

Healthy Ageing with Dairy: Aged Care Sector and Older Adults Scoping

The addition of dairy foods such as milk, cheese and yoghurt into the daily diet of aged-care residents has been proven to reduce fractures and falls. This project aims to translate this research into policy opportunities to drive the uptake of dairy products within Australia's ageing population and deliver benefits back to the dairy industry.
