Integrated solutions for Tuberculosis control in animals combining vaccination and multi-species diagnostics (WILDTBVAC)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
Recent studies have showed estimations of worldwide 50 million cattle infections with M. bovis, at a cost to the agricultural community of 2-3 billion € per year. In developing countries, M. bovis infection is still widespread, in both cattle and humans. Even in developed countries, successful eradication of disease from livestock is hampered by the presence of wildlife reservoirs of M. bovis. Und ...

Demonstration of NOPERSIST results leading to novel, validated diagnostic tests for active human and bovine tuberculosis (DEMO-NOPERSIST)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
Tuberculosis (TB) in humans and bovine TB in farm animals are global health problems of immense social and economic importance.Human TB: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) is a slowly replicating bacillus that resides intracellularly within phagosomes of macrophages and commonly causes latent infections of the lung and in about 5% of the infected individuals it leads to active disease. Co-infecti ...

Protecting the food chain from prions: shaping European priorities through basic and applied research (PRIORITY)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
"Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) started, 20 years ago, a devastating health and food crisis throughout Europe. Classical BSE is now under control as a result of the meat and bone meal ban. However, tonsil analyses suggest that there may be an alarmingly high number of asymptomatic PrPSc positive cases. Transmission through blood transfusion is another important concern, as are recent “atyp ...

A new generation of fibre-based diagnostic sensors (BiognostiX)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2014,
The BiognostiX project will develop technologies and flexible manufacturing methods for the fabrication of inexpensive biodiagnostic sensors on fibre-based substrates (e.g. paper or card).Fabrication will be based on fluid-jet techniques, allowing the sensor platforms to be reconfigurable (customisable) at the point of manufacture to perform different biodiagnostic test functions including quantit ...

Strategies for the eradication of bovine tuberculosis (TB-STEP)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
"Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. This infection affects domestic and wild animals and represents a major concern worldwide because of its high economic impact due to mortalities, condemnations, decreases in productions, and its zoonotic potential. Eradication programmes based on a test-and-slaughter policy in the EU have proved successful i ...
