PIVOTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE EFFECTS OF BIOACTIVES ON HEALTH AND WELLBEING. FROM HUMAN GENOMA TO FOOD INDUSTRY - PATHWAY (PATHWAY-27)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2018,

Scientific understanding of the role and mechanisms of bioactives is fragmented. Research often addresses the theoretical possibility of health improvement effects rather than their real, practical use for everyday diets. Bioactives cannot be considered as discrete chemical compounds and research must focus on bioactive-enriched foods (BEF), if consumer demands for foods delivering appropriate hea ...

ACTive Implant for Optoacoustic Natural sound enhancement (ACTION)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,

The ACTION project builds on the recent discovery that relatively low levels of pulsed infrared laser light are capable of triggering activity in hair cells of the partially hearing (hearing impaired) cochlea and vestibule. So far the excessively large volume of optical fibre systems and external light sources used for animal studies prevented the practical use of this discovery for long term anim ...

Developing an efficient e-infrastructure, standards and data-flow for metabolomics and its interface to biomedical and life science e-infrastructures in Europe and world-wide (COSMOS)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,

Metabolomics is an important phenotyping technique for molecular biology and medicine. It assesses the molecular state of an organism or collections of organisms through the comprehensive quantitative and qualitative analysis of all small molecules in cells, tissues, and body fluids. Metabolic processes are at the core of physiology. Consequently, metabolomics is ideally suited as a medical tool t ...

Meeting the Materials and Manufacturing Challenge for Ultra High Efficiency PF Power Plants with CCS (NEXTGENPOWER)

Date du début: 1 mai 2010, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,

Carbon Capture and Sequestration has become an important technology to comply with the CO2 reduction targets set by the EC. However CCS has the drawback that the electrical efficiency of the coal fired power plant will drop significantly. To overcome this drawback, one has to increase the base efficiency of the power plant or increase the biomass co-firing share as this is a CO2 neutral energy sou ...

Adaptive Tip dress Control for Automated Resistance Spot Welding (SmartDress)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,

High volume automotive production (such as body-in-white construction) operations rely heavily on RSW (resistance spot welding), and suffer significant losses of output (and resulting revenue) as a consequence of frequent production line stoppages. These stoppages are predominantly caused by weld quality issues, which in turn arise from poor maintenance of consumable ‘tips’ on RSW guns.SmartDress ...
