LABORATORY

Challenge Research Institute owns a R&D building and 230 sets of advanced R&D facilities, such as Amino Acid Analyzer, Far-Infrared, Liquid Chromatograph, and Bionic Digestive System, with a total value of more than 5 million US dollars. The institute has more than 100 patents, and has conducted more than 30 national and industrial scientific R&D projects, such as enzyme preparations, premixes, and microecological preparations.

UNION

Challenge Group Research Institute and the Feed Research Institute of CAAS jointly established the "National Engineering Research Center of Biological Feed". It also has academician expert workstations and post-doctoral research workstations.

PLATFORM

Challenge Research Institute has established three efficient and open R&D platforms with national scientific research institutes and authoritative institutions, such as Institute of Feed Research of CAAS, Institute of Microbiology of CAS, Academy of State Administration of Grain, China National Feed Quality Inspection and Testing Center, and National Feed Engineering Technology Research Center. These platforms mainly focus on the screening and transformation of strains, the optimization of fermentation processes, and the research and development of application technologies.
