Development of an objective method to perform quality classification of comminuted poultry meat (MACSYS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

Deboning of meat is an important technology to improve yield and sustainability of meat production. But mechanically separated meat (MSM) is generally considered to be of inferior quality, and its use is subject to strict regulations. In contrast, manually separated meat is accepted as regular meat, and not subject to the same restrictions. But development of the technology for mechanical processe ...

Implant Disposable Antibacterial Coating (I.D.A.C.): a Novel Approach to Implant-Related Infections in Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery (I.D.A.C.)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

With a share of 38%, orthopaedic and traumatology (O&T) are the worldwide leading markets of implanted biomaterials, involving millions of new patients each year at an increasing trend. Infection related to implanted medical devices is directly related to bacterial capability to establish multilayered, highly structured biofilms on artificial surfaces. Bacterial infections due to implanted biomate ...

Saponification pre-treatment and biosensors based control system for slaughterhouse waste anaerobic digestion improvement (ADAW)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Slaughterhouses (mainly for pigs, cattle and poultry which make up almost 93% of the total world meat production) produce large amounts of different wastes and wastewaters. Direct disposal of highly polluted wastewater and organic residues into the sewerage system without prior treatment on the other hand is mostly not acceptable due to resulting environmental and ecological problems and the risk ...

Systematic analysis of factors controlling meiotic recombination in higher plants (MEIOsys)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

Meiotic recombination has underpinned plant breeding for the generation of new traits of agronomic, environmental and economic importance, although we still have little understanding of the controlling mechanisms involved in this process. We will combine approaches in genomics and systems biology to obtain a detailed understanding of the factors that control recombination and will provide a basis ...
