Integrity Testing of Deep Foundation Piles (PileInspect)

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

A hundred thousand kilometres of piles are installed yearly in Europe. Problems can occur during pile driving including spalling of concrete at the pile’s head or point and transverse or spiral cracking. Industry figures suggest that as many as 3-5% of piles fail during installation. If a failure is detected, the cost of that pile is increased 4 times due to the remedial work needed to replace it. ...

"Novel photosensor-based device for rapid and quantitative ochratoxin A determination in wine, beer and feed" (OTASENS)

Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

"The deterioration of food commodities by biotic factors is a serious and widespread problem. In particular, the contamination of different food and feed commodities by ochratoxin A (OTA) produced by several widespread fungi represents a serious health risk due to the high toxicity of OTA. This toxin causes nephrotoxic, genotoxic, immunosuppressive and carcinogenic effects on humans and animals. I ...
