Regulation of red cell life-span, erythropoiesis, survival, senescence and clearance (RELEVANCE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
Anaemia is the most common pathological condition affecting 1.6 billion individuals worldwide. It thus presents a serious health care problem and an economic burden. Reduction in red blood cell (RBC) number can be caused by blood loss, diet, stress conditions including endurance sport, and pathologies which are caused by primary genetic aberrations or are secondary to the malfunction of other cell ...

Combined Molecular Microscopy for Therapy and Personalized Medication in Rare Anaemias Treatments (CoMMiTMenT)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
The aim of CoMMiTMenT is the development of combined imaging technologies based on optofluidic microscopy and scanning ion conductance microscopy. An integrated, completely simultaneous device named µCOSMOS will be used as a proof-of-principle for therapeutic interventions in rare anaemias. Both techniques rely on molecular detection: optofluidic microscopy relies on molecular biomarkers, and scan ...

Integrated SYsteM based on PHOtonic Microresonators and Microfluidic Components for rapid detectioN of toxins in milk and dairY products (SYMPHONY)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
In the milk industry, one of most pressing unmet needs is the timely detection of mycotoxins that originate from animal feed and are secreted into milk. In particular, milk and dairy products can be contaminated by aflatoxin M1, a potent carcinogen. The aflatoxin contamination represents a hazard for human health and an economic loss for the dairy industry. The available technology for aflatoxin d ...

Pilot-scale hybrid roll to roll/sheet to sheet manufacturing chain for flexible OLEDs (Flex-o-Fab)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Organic Electroluminescence (OLED) is the most promising technology to deliver flexible, thin, light weight, power efficient and environment-friendly light sources. Currently glass based OLED devices are slowly entering the market place, opening new possibilities for lighting solutions. By adding flexibility and robustness at a lower price point, flexible OLEDs will change the lighting industry an ...
