Learn About Our Project

Leather dehairing is the main process involved in removing the noncollagenous constituents of rawhide prior to tanning. Conventionally, chemicals have been used for dehairing process. Unfortunately, these chemicals are toxic to the environment. Furthermore, many enzymes that can be used for dehairing must be heated to achieve optimal activity levels. Our project aims to make the tanning industry more environmentally sustainable by making a cost-effective enzymatically based dehairing system.

Meet Our Team

Curious about the people behind our project? Meet the energetic and dedicated team of people that worked endlessly and made our project possible! to learn a bit about us- our passions, our hobbies, and our quirks.

Interested in Joining Next Year's Team?

We’d be happy to have you! We have learned a lot about what it takes to make a team, to be a team, to choose a feasible project, to find a workspace , to secure funding, and contribute to iGEM. With our newfound experience, we can’t wait to compete in iGEM next year! Get in touch.
