SEWAGE MONITORING SYSTEM FOR TRACKING SYNTHETIC DRUG LABORATORIES (microMole)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,
The threat of synthetic drugs is one of the most significant current drug problems worldwide. Amphetamine-Type Stimulants (ATS) are the second most widely used drugs. Since 1990, ATS manufacturing has been reported from more than 70 countries worldwide and the figure keeps rising. In 2008, 80 % of the amphetamine production facilities dismantled worldwide were located in Europe (UNODC, 2010) (EMCC ...

Real time monitoring of SEA contaminants by an autonomous Lab-on-a-chip biosensor (SEA-on-a-CHIP)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2017,
Early warning systems that can provide extreme sensitivity with exquisite selectivity are required to assess chemical contamination of estuarine and coastal areas. SEA-on-a-CHIP aims to develop a miniaturized, autonomous, remote and flexible immuno-sensor platform based on a fully integrated array of micro/nano-electrodes and a microfluidic system in a lab-on-a-chip configuration combined with ele ...

Low-cost remote monitoring and control system for in-situ remediation of soil (INTELLIREMED)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Bioremediation – the use of certain biological agents to remove or neutralize contaminants from polluted soil or water – is a rapidly advancing field and the technology has been applied successfully to remediate many contaminated sites. Effective monitoring of biological processes is a necessary component of any bioremediation application.Currently, the influence of the remediation process is moni ...

"Early detection of HIV-1 using ultra-sensitive, rapid capacitive biosensor" (CAPHIV)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
"The HIV pandemic continues to be a worldwide public-health problem. The virus, which is spread through sexual contact, exposure to infected blood, or through shared syringes, is highly infective, rapidly mutates, and has no cure. Because there is no effective vaccine or other prophylaxis available, the current best practice and standard of care for those infected is an early, accurate diagnosis ...
