An integrated interdisciplinary approach to animal-free chemical and nanomaterial safety assessment (in3)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2020,
All chemicals whether they are drugs, cosmetics, agrochemicals or others need to be tested for their safety to man and the environment. The use of whole animal studies for the prediction of adverse effects in man, is problematic due to species dependent effects, high costs and a large burden to animals in terms of numbers and suffering. While there have been major improvements in human in vitro a ...

Model-based preclinical development of anti-tuberculosis drug combinations (PREDICT-TB)
Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 30 oct. 2017,
Drug development in TB requires new integrated methods to transition the novel combination regimens needed to shorten first-line therapy and combat multi-drug resistance. Although new agents are emerging, the path to registration of such regimens remains uncertain while capacity for pivotal trials is limited. Selection and optimization of drug combinations for development depends on preclinical sy ...

Advanced Microwave Plasma Gasification of pig and cow manure for cost-effective biogas generation (PLAGASMIC)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,
"The livestock sector in Europe is facing a problem: The manure it generates cannot all be used as fertiliser because excessive amounts of manure to land can lead to surface and ground water contamination through the accumulation of minerals in the soil, as manure contains high amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus. The EU has legislated to place severe restrictions on the quantity of organic manure ...

Targeting the tumour microenvironment to improve pancreatic cancer prognosis (EPC-TM-Net)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal human cancers with a five-year survival rate of less than 5%. Late presentation and a high level of resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs are among the major reasons for this dismal prognosis. The presence of the highest degree of desmoplasia among all solid tumours and the fact that chronic inflammatory pancreatic disease is associated with an increased ...
