Nanotherapeutics to Treat Antibiotic Resistant Gram-Negative Pneumonia Infections (PNEUMONP)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
The main objective of PneumoNP is the development of a theragnostic system for the treatment of lung Gram-negative bacterial infections. As a proof of concept PneumoNP will focus the attention on Klebsiella pneumoniae caused infections. A diagnostic kit will be developed to enable a rapid and precise identification of the bacteria strain causing the infection and avoid the use of wide spectrum a ...

Fast, cost-effective, user-friendly point of care (POC) instrument for detection of respiratory pathogens, including Streptococcus pneumoniae (RESPOC)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
Molecular techniques such as PCR (polymerase chain reaction) are becoming increasingly used for the detection of respiratory pathogens, due to their high accuracy and relatively fast turnaround time (hours). Their utilization can result in early and specific treatment, contribute to better patient outcomes and reduce length of hospital stay. However, implementation of rapid molecular diagnostics r ...

Chips for Life (C4L)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,
Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are a huge burden in terms of mortality and morbidity worldwide. To improve the management of the bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, the institution of an appropriate antimicrobial therapy as soon as possible has also been shown to be a key element for reducing morbidity and mortality. The aim of our project is to develop a panel of dedicated rapid d ...

Partner Network for a Clinically Validated Multi-Analyte Lab-on-a-Chip Platform (PARCIVAL)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
The objective of PARCIVAL is to develop an integrated and automated multi-analyte lab-on-a-disk platform for the fast and reliable sample in -> answer out diagnosis of highly infectious respiratory pathogens, resistance patterns and biomarkers for individual severity of the infection. The platform format will be based on completely integrated microfluidic foil-disposables. The disposables will fea ...
