Unraveling the biosynthesis of fatty acid-based lipid polymers in plants (BIOLIPOL)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

...omega-hydroxy fatty acids and dicarboxylic acids, which are biomolecules with potential to replace petroleum for the synthesis of polymers and specialty chemicals. The applicant and his colleagues at Michigan State University have identified the first mutant affected in suberin synthesis, characterized a family of glycerol acyltransferases involved in polyester biosynthesis in the model plant Arab ...

AUTHENT-NET – Food Authenticity Research Network (AUTHENT-NET)

Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2018,

It is acknowledged that historically anti-food fraud capability within Europe has not been consolidated and lacks the coordination and support structures available to those working in food safety. There are various initiatives underway to redress this balance e.g. DGSanté’s Food Fraud network, DG Research’s FoodIntegrity project, as well as numerous national programmes and industry initiatives. ...

Industrial Crops producing added value Oils for Novel chemicals (ICON)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

Replacing fossil oil with renewable resources is perhaps the most urgent need and the most challenging task that human society faces today. Cracking fossil hydrocarbons and building the desired chemicals with advanced organic chemistry usually requires many times more energy than is contained in the final product. Thus, using plant material in the chemical industry does not only replace the fossil ...

Advanced Dynamic Validations using Integrated Simulation and Experimentation (ADVISE)

Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

"ADVISE is a prenormative project for experimental validation of simulations of dynamic events using full-field optical methods of deformation measurement. These powerful tools are used in evaluating the performance, reliability, and safety of primary structures and for validating their computational design. Optimised design of primary structures leads to lighter and more energy efficient produc ...
