“Kitchen laboratory” in the Magical Land kindergarten in Brwinów
As part of the popularization of science, PhD Karolina Wojtulewicz from our Institute conducted the “Kitchen Laboratory” classes with children from the Magical Land kindergarten in Brwinów. The children observed what color red cabbage juice has depending on the added substance, checked whether the banana has DNA, and made beautiful oil lavas. They learned how to make a note/report from the experiment and what is needed in the laboratory to make working in the laboratory safe.

Memorial of Professor Franciszek Przekop
deceased on July 13, 2024
Professor Franciszek Przekop will always remain in our memory and heart.
He passed away far too early, suddenly, unexpectedly.
This makes us realize how fragile life is.
Throughout his life, the Professor was guided by honesty,
He was open to other people. He knew how to listen
and never refused to help anyone.
Memorial of Professor Aleksandra Ziołecka
(1924-2024)
We will remember Professor Aleksandra Ziołecka as very cheerful,
modest, noble and righteous person, who was endlessly devoted to science, family and friends.
She was the perfect organiser, tutor and mentor for many generations
of Institute’s employees.
Her kindness, politeness and respect for each and every person
will stay with us forever.
We care about the nutrition quality
Our goal is to care about the quality of animal nutrition. We have been doing this for 69 years. We conduct basic research and development activities in the field of animal nutrition physiology, metabolism and the usage of nutrients and biologically active substances present in feed, as well as in the field of neuroendocrinology, endo-crinology of growth, development and reproduction of livestock and laboratory animals.
