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 ...

Providing a new generation of methodologies and tools for cost-effective risk-based animal health surveillance systems for the benefit of livestock producers, decision makers and consumers (RISKSUR)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,

The risk of occurrence of exotic, new (emerging), re-emerging as well as endemic diseases has increased substantially, particularly due to globalisation and intensification of animal production. While the need for effective animal health surveillance is widely recognised for the management of such threats, the currently used systems do not take optimal advantage of recent advances in epidemiologic ...

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 ...

Pathogenesis and transmission of influenza virus in pigs (FLUPIG)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,

"FLUPIG aims at a better understanding of the role of pigs in influenza pandemics. Pandemic influenza viruses come from wild birds, but they must adapt to efficient replication and transmission in humans to cause a pandemic. Pigs are considered important intermediate hosts in which avian viruses adapt to mammals before they transmit to humans. However, the exact role of pigs is unclear, as is the ...

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 ...

New tools and approaches to control Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) in the EU and Asia (PoRRSCon)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is the major cause of reproductive and respiratory problems in pigs worldwide. Controlling this disease is a top priority in pig producing countries. Due to mutations at a high frequency, new variants of the virus appear that are no longer effectively controlled by the commercial vaccines. In addition, highly virulent variants emerge, lea ...

Novel Technologies for Surveillance of Emerging and Re-emerging Infections of Wildlife (WILDTECH)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,

With the increasing impact of mankind’s activities on the natural environment, disease naturally harboured by wild animals, both within the geographical limits of the EU and elsewhere, are becoming increasingly significant both for public health and health of livestock, in addition to having direct concerns for wild animal species. We are proposing a project which will combine (i) technological de ...

The Network of Animal Disease Infectiology Research Facilities (NADIR)

Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,

"Europe possesses several experiment facilities holding the level 3 of bio safety, which is required to study the large majority of zoonoses, emerging diseases and a number of other animal infectious diseases. Most of them are nevertheless loosely connected, leading to redundancy. NAIF has as its strategic aim to realise the potential European leadership in animal infectiology by bringing together ...

European Surveillance Network for Influenza in Pigs 3 (ESNIP 3)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,

"This “European surveillance network for influenza in pigs (ESNIP) 3” will maintain and expand surveillance networks established during previous EC concerted actions (ESNIP 1, QLK2-CT-2000-01636; ESNIP 2, SSPE-022749). Three work packages (WP 2, 3, 4) aim to increase the knowledge of the epidemiology and evolution of swine influenza (SI) virus (SIV) in European pigs through organised field surveil ...

The effects of antibiotic administration on the emergence and persistence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in humans and on the composition of the indigenous microbiotas at various body sites (antiresdev)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,

The objective of the HEALTH-2009-2.3.1-2 call is to study the impact of different antibiotics on the prevalence of resistant bacteria in the human host. In ANTIRESDEV we will achieve this objective using the approaches suggested in the call as follows. We will use culture-based and culture-independent approaches to investigate the impact of four different types of antibiotics (with different modes ...
