ULTRAsensitive PLAsmonic devices for early CAncer Diagnosis (ULTRAPLACAD)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Oct 31, 2018,
Cancer biomarkers circulating in body fluids have been shown to reflect the pathological process and for this reason can be used for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and choice for therapeutic interventions. It is proven that their detection is a key to new minimal-invasive detection approaches. However, barriers to wide spread use of similar approaches are lack of test sensitivity, specificity and lim ...

Translation of the direct-on-blood PCR-NALFIA system into an innovative near point-of-care diagnostic for malaria (DIAGMAL)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
Accurate diagnosis of malaria is essential to timely install proper treatment. Current diagnostic methods for malaria have limitations, such as detection limit and problems with antigen persistence after successful treatment (rapid diagnostic tests) or may require technical expertise and equipment (microscopy). Treatment on the basis of clinical symptoms only (fever = malaria) must be abandoned.Mo ...

Design platform for economic production of multilayer Micro-Nano Bio Systems (ML²)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
Microfluidics and lab-on-chip is an enabling technology with great growth potential. The life science industry has come to realise the trends and potential of miniaturisation which already have effected the information and communication industry in the last decades. Combinations of microfluidics, microelectronics and microoptics provide striking opportunities for advancing biomedical research and ...
