low-coSt Printing of high-pErformanCe Thermoplastics foR structurAl appLications (SPECTRAL)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

The technology known as Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is one of the oldest known methods for 3D printing of objects. In fact, it was the first technology to be widely commercialized, and still has, by far, the largest presence on the market. In addition, printers based on FFF technology commonly have prices far less than comparable designs using photo polymerization or sintering technologies. ...

Tissue engineering of the right heart outflow tract by a biofunctionalized bioresorbable polymeric valved tube (TEH-TUBE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Approximately 42% of infants’ mortality in the world is related to congenital heart defects (prevalence: 8-12/1000 births). Over 1/3 require the reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) by surgical procedures which currently use inert materials without any growth potential. Consequently, multiple reoperations are often required, with their attendant high risk of mortality and m ...

Single-Port Insulin Infusion for Improved Diabetes Management (SPIDIMAN)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Existing therapeutic devices for diabetic patients suffer from bulky size, inaccurate measurements and the difficulties of handling two body interfaces. Suboptimal control of blood glucose levels in type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus patients results in periods of hypo- and hyperglycaemia leading to severe and life-threatening complications. Exploiting a novel glucose sensor technology, SPIDIMAN a ...

Durable biofilm-restraining surfaces and cleaning procedures for the food processing industry (CLEANSURF)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Efficient and safe food production is a prerequisite for building a society capable of feeding the growing population. With the world population growing at extraordinary rates and the consequent repercussions in the dietary and consumption habits, it is estimated that food production has to be increased at least by 70% in the next 30 years, with the looming threat of a proportional surge of food-b ...
