Gaining Productivity, Cost Efficiency and Sustainability in the Downstreaming Processing of Bio Products by novel Integration and Intensification strategies (Intenso)
Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
The European Life science and chemical industries increasingly depend on effi-cient, sustainable, and cost-effective bioprocessing platforms to remain competi-tive. A critical assessment of current bottlenecks during (bio) manufacturing clearly indicates that the recovery and purification of biologicals in large scale in responsible for many inefficiencies.INTENSO proposes an evaluation of the cur ...

Optimisation of treatment with off-patent antimicrobial agents of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) (MagicBullet)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Background. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is one of the most common and severe hospital-adquired infections, and multidrugresistant gram-negative bacilli (MDR-GNB) constitute the main etiology in many countries. Inappropriate empiric antimicrobial treatment is associated with increased mortality. In this context, the empirical treatment of choice for VAP is unknown. Colistin, and “old” dru ...

"Generation and Evaluation of ""Next-generation"" Antibody-Toxin-Conjugates for Cancer Therapy" (MABTOX)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Therapeutic antibodies have transformed cancer therapy during the last decade, due to their high selectivity of targeting cancer cells in comparison to standard small molecule chemotherapy. Most recently, the coupling of cellular toxins to therapeutic antibodies has demonstrated an even greater efficacy in the therapy of cancer and the first, highly potent antibody drug conjugate (ADC), Adcetris®, ...

Protein electroextraction coupled to direct sorption – a new route for primary recovery of intracellular bioproducts from industrial yeast (ELECTROEXTRACTION)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2011,
"This project proposes a new -highly efficient- method for intracellular protein recovery form yeast – electroextraction. Moreover, a novel bio processing strategy will be developed based on its combination with subsequent direct product capture onto a suitable solid phase. Selective recovery of the yeast intracellular soluble proteome will be attempted by permeabilization of cell envelope with hi ...
