Scientists at the University of Minnesota-Duluth have developed
technology to convert the white bark of birch trees into compounds
for commercial applications. High purity compounds derived from
birch tree bark can be used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals,
agrochemicals, and cosmetics.
This technology is being further developed by a University start-up
company, NaturNorth
Technologies, LLC.
