Biosensor nanoarrays for environmental monitoring (BIOMONAR)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

BIOMONAR develops multiplexed nanoarray biosensors for environmental targets, i.e. pollutants and pathogens. The innovative approach engineers three sensor platforms (surface, liposomal, living cell) which exploit a panel of periplasmic binding proteins (PBPs) as the common selective element. The nanoarrays are integrated into a microfluidics system for in-situ monitoring. The strategy allows for ...

Development and Verification of a Bibliometric model for the Identification of Frontier Research (DBF)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

The goal of the proposed work is to provide a bibliometric monitoring for the peer review process of the ERC grant schemes. Particular interest will be devoted to the extent the grant applications fulfil attributes of frontier research and the influence of these attributes on the decision of the panels. For this purpose, bibliometric parameters corresponding to what was defined as frontier researc ...

TAILoring photon-phonon interaction in silicon PHOXonic crystals (TAILPHOX)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

TAILPHOX project addresses the design and implementation of Silicon phoXonic crystal structures that allow a simultaneous control of both photonic and phononic waves. The final goal is to push the performance of optical devices well beyond the state of the art by this radically new approach. By merging both fields (nanophotonics and nanophononics) within a same platform, novel unprecedented contro ...

Surface Acoustic Wave wireless sensors for High Operating Temperature environments (SAWHOT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology has been applied for more than 20 years to develop sensors exhibiting unique capabilities with limited ageing effects resulting in long term stability properties. During the 90s, they have proved their capability to be wirelessly operated without any on-board power supply. In parallel, the long term development of advanced material, particularly in Russia, ha ...

Knowledge-based multi-scale modelling of metal-oxide-polymer interface behaviour for micro- and nanoelectronics (NanoInterface)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2011,

Micro- and nano-electronic components are multi-scale in nature, caused by the huge scale differences of the individual materials and components in these products. Consequently, product behaviour is becoming strongly dependent on material behaviour at the atomic scale. To prevent extensive trial-and-error based testing for new technology developments, new powerful quantitative knowledge-based mode ...

Biologically inspired computation for chemical sensing (NEUROCHEM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

Biological olfaction outperforms chemical instrumentation in specificity, response time, detection limit, coding capacity, time stability, robustness, size, power consumption, and portability. This biological function provides outstanding performance due, to a large extent, to the unique architecture of the olfactory pathway, which combines a high degree of redundancy, an efficient combinatorial c ...

Development of Electrochemical Reactors Using Dehydrogenases for Enantiopure Synthon Preparations (ERUDESP)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

The aim of the project is the development of electrochemical reactors for the manufacture of fine chemicals with dehydrogenases as a process with almost zero waste emission. The production of enantio pure compounds with high EE’s can be achieved by using dehydrogenases as biocatalysts, because they express high enantio selectivity in ketone reduction, combined with broad substrate spectra by some ...

Quantitative analysis of atomic polarization and protein-ligand electrostatic interactions via charge density studies in proteins: insights from ultra-high resolution crystallography (ProteinChargeDensity)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2010,

X-ray crystallography at ultra-high resolution enables to observe the deformation of the atomic electron densities due to chemical bonding and intermolecular interactions. These can be quantitatively analysed via charge density studies, a mature and dynamic branch of modern crystallography, which provides important chemical information (charges, bond order, nucleophilicity…) on the atoms. For the ...
