NOROSENSOR - A real-time monitoring system for airborne norovirus (NOROSENSOR)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Gastroenteritis, caused by the airborne Norovirus, is the third most deadly infectious disease worldwide, infecting ~4% of the population annually, worldwide, and has related costs measured in billions € annually in the EU alone. Today, detection of airborne viruses can only be done in retrospect in the laboratory, which severely limits the ability to rapidly react and limit the spread of an outbr ...

ROutine diagnostic tool for Urinary Tract INfections caused by Esbl and carbapenamase producing bacteria (ROUTINE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

Treatment of Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) is currently initiated empirically because conventional diagnosis takes 2-3 days from sample to results. Moreover, the pharmaceutical pipeline is almost dry. Therefore, the last decade has globally witnessed a huge explosion of antibiotic (AB) resistance in Gram Negative Bacteria (GNB), which has drastically reduced the available AB therapy choices for U ...
