Magnetic Sorting and Ultrasound Sensor Technologies for Production of High Purity Secondary Polyolefins from Waste (W2Plastics)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

The European consumption of plastics increased from 24,6 Mtons in 1993 to 39,7 Mtons in 2003 and its growth rate exceeds that of the economy as a whole. At the same time, polymer recyclers and manufacturing industries have a problem buying feed materials and secondary polymers of sufficient volume and quality, as a result of the pull of China and India on all raw material resources. The alternativ ...

INTEGRATION OF THE SYSTEM MODELS OF INSULIN SIGNALLING AND OF MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION AND ITS APPLICATION IN THE STUDY OF COMPLEX DISEASES (MITIN)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,

"A common trait to disorders such as type 2 diabetes or obesity is the development of insulin resistance. There is evidence indicating the existence of a bidirectional cross-talk between insulin signalling and mitochondrial function that may be relevant for the pathogenesis of those disorders. Based on this, MITIN main goal is to identify novel mitochondrial-dependent mechanisms responsible for th ...
