Targeted disease prophylaxis in European fish farming (TargetFish)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
European aquaculture production provides direct employment to 65.000 people with a turnover of 3 billion €. However, the lack of authorised veterinary medicinal products and the consequent disease outbreaks in farmed fish species costs the sector 20% of the production value. The most appropriate method for disease control, both on economical and ethical grounds, is disease prevention by vaccinatio ...

Automotive Mechatronic Baseline for Electric Resilient Ultra Light Vehicle (AMBER-ULV)
Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
"Ultra Light Vehicles (ULV) intrinsically have a better efficiency due to their improved transport capability per vehicle mass. Additionally improved driving dynamics performance can more easily be achieved because of the reduced mass.However, the design of ULV sharing the same road with heavier cars represents a complex technical challenge for achieving acceptable safety levels. Furthermore, at p ...

Optimising Subsidiary Crop Applications in Rotations (OSCAR)
Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
There is a need to improve sustainability in farming systems particularly through soil care and improvement, but not at the expense of productivity. One approach is to focus on a comprehensive advance in conservation tillage. This will be developed from improved ways of integrating subsidiary crops (SC) as living or dead mulches or cover crops with the main crops in rotations so as to simultaneous ...

Research capacity for the implementation of genetic control of mosquitoes (INFRAVEC)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
Mosquitoes transmit a variety of infectious diseases that cause a tremendous burden to public health. Due to climate changes and to the increase in international trade and tourism the threats posed by mosquitoes are increasingly affecting large parts of Europe, causing understandable concerns among the populations of many Member States. Control methods, mainly based on insecticide usage, are strug ...

A pilot line of antibacterial and antifungal medical textiles based on a sonochemical process (SONO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
Hospital-acquired (nosocomial) infections are a major financial issue in the European healthcare system. The financial impact of these infections counteract medical advances and expensive medical treatments by increasing the length of hospital stay by at least 8 days on average per affected patient, hence adding more than 10 millions patient days in hospitals in Europe per year. The statistics on ...
