Looking to join a consortium as a partner_antimicrobial food packaging and coating materials_QSAR models

ProtoQSAR is a Spanish SME with 10-years’ experience, specialized in the design and development of chemical substances. This includes design, optimization, valorisation, and development of small molecules, peptides, nanomaterials, mixtures…, as well as compound reprofiling and virtual screening. We are expert in the latest Artificial Intelligence-powered chemoinformatics and structural bioinformatics tools, including QSAR models, molecular docking, pharmacophore modelling, homology modelling, molecular dynamics, and molecular mechanics analyses.
We work in chemistry and regulatory toxicology and compound discovery and development (biotech, pharma, veterinary, cosmetics, nutraceuticals, agrifood...). We have experience in 10+ international research projects and 25+ other projects, and our team has 80+ publications in our topics of interest.

In particular, our QSAR models allow for the prediction and assessment of physicochemical, biological, therapeutical, pharmacological (e.g. ADME), and/or (eco)toxicological properties of substances with an array of advantages:
· fast results,
· saving of material and financial resources,
· regulatory validity
· reduced animal testing (3Rs),
Many of them, including the largest available QSAR platform for REACH, can be directly accessed (including a free trial) at https://protopred.protoqsar.com/.

We can contribute to the Topic 2.3.1-2023 (RIA), "Assessing novel antimicrobial food packaging and coating materials to reduce food waste to improve safety in the Mediterranean food supply chain", by predicting molecules and materials' properties, in order to ensure they are safe (non-toxic for the humans and the environment) and have anti-microbial properties.
