Descripción del proyecto
Twelve-member IPANEMA consortium implements competences of participating academic & industry beneficiaries
and 3rd country partners to 1) create a knowledge/experience-sharing network of scientists, entrepreneurs & endusers
in the multidisciplinary field of biosensors for POCT (point-of care testing); 2) develop innovative bottom-up
approaches for fabrication of low-cost POCT devices & implementation of paper-based nucleic acid testing (NAT);
3) pursue applications in 3 important industry sectors – healthcare, agrifood & environmental monitoring. Research
& Innovation (R&I) activities will be focused on developing low-cost paper-based isothermal NATs, their integration
into microfluidic devices and optimization for use in a) tissue engineering b) agrifood (poultry/plant/fungal) pathogen
detection c) detection of toxigenic freshwater Cyanobacteria causing harmful algal blooms. Secondments & trainings
will enable researchers to acquire both technical & soft skills needed for converting scientific knowledge & ideas
into products & services. Strong involvement of 4 SME partners from Serbia, Israel, France & US contributing their
proprietary knowledge on revolutionary novel materials for microfluidic devices & DNA extraction kits, domain
expertise in agrifood sector, unique portable sensing systems & handheld devices for isoNAT quantification, will help
researchers focus their efforts on development of innovative products for real-life use. Several transducing methods
(colorimetric, fluorescence, SPR, electrochemical, microwave & magnetic) and smartphone-based read-out methods
will be investigated for POCT use. Renowned beneficiaries including academic INRAE, WU, INESC MN, BGU,
UNSPMF & BIOS together with 3rd country academic partners: Columbia University and Xi'an Jiaotong University,
will provide transfer of cutting-edge knowledge and technical expertise in effect yielding good basis for long term
collaboration and joint R&I projects.
