A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
The 100L prototype plant realized (upscalable at 150L) allows the neutralization of liquid waste products of the analysis laboratories and verification of the treatment before the final discharge into the sewer. It can be installed at the...
Despite a vast and heterogeneous tangible cultural heritage such as the Italian one, cultural operators still denounce the lack of innovative tools able to facilitate the management of huge amounts of data and to integrate the various heterogeneous...
The grape ripening degree at harvest is one of the main factors influencing the quality of wine. The parameters most frequently used to monitor the ripening degree of grapes are sugar content, pH, acidity, and phenolic composition. The latter is...
In the field of extracorporeal circulation and assisted respiration, the possibility of adding sensors to the polymeric disposables currently on the market would allow to monitor constantly the patient's condition and, therefore, to personalize their...
Development of a 24 SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) markers set for the parallel analyses of multiple of molecular markers associated with earliness and resistance to low temperatures in tomato. SNP-based markers are based on single DNA base...
Pulmonary administration of protein drugs or vaccines in the inhaled powder form is an alternative to administration by injection. The technology stems form the project Pulmomed (www.pulmomed.eu). Proteins at high purity level were expressed with a...
Development of a set of 24 SNP markers (single nucleotide polymorphism) dedicated to the parallel analysis of 192 samples to test genes / markers associated with characters of interest, such as quality and low-toxicity gluten. SNP-based markers...
The VALSOVIT project has been proposed as a tool of technological innovation for the valorization of the waste of the wine production chain for the production of high added-value substances using sustainable technologies. The main results obtained in...
The project has developed innovative technologies for the production of fresh and processed pork products featured of high nutritional quality. Plant extracts, sources of omega-3 fatty acids and natural antioxidants, have been incorporated into pigs’...
The JUMP project has developed and tested a sensorized platform based on an intelligent platform of force that, through the support of cameras for tracking, is able to provide information on sports performance through effective, ergonomic and usable...
Italy is one of the world's largest consumers of pesticides. IRRAOP solves the problem of the management of pesticide residues in sprayer tanks: to date there are no validated and effective systems or services able to avoid the dispersion of these...
The design was made in the Solidworks environment, based on the disclaimers provided by the customer. The overall layout has been designed to ensure the dependent movement of the two syringes, the one that withdraw blood and the one that mix blood...
The service and instruments offered seek to support ICT and manufacturing companies in solving interoperability issues connected to eBusiness and the use of international standards in collaborations among firms and between firms and Public...
VIP Lab offers a human-centered design service based on an immersive 3D experience for viewing complex products and systems and simulating its behavior within an interactive virtual environment. The 3D models of the product can be displayed in 1:1...
The dispenser system BIOMASS DISP mainly consists of a completely isolated fiberglass tank, a submersible pump, pipes connecting to the water supply to the plant and biogas and a bioactive catalyst Biocat + . The system is fed with water from the...
ENEA, Faenza Research Laboratories, offers bioinert and biocompatible ceramic materials ( zirconia (ZrO2) e alumina (Al2O3) based composites), suitable to be applied in dental and orthopaedic implant sector and as surgical ceramic blades. ENEA has...
NIR spectroscopy is a rapid and cheap technique for the analysis of food samples, which do not have to be "prepared", but can be analyzed as they are. In this context, the CHIMSLAB research group of BIOGEST-SITEIA has already successfully implemented...
The hyperspectral images acquired in the near infrared (NIR) range combine the advantages of spectroscopy and imaging, enabling to obtain a sort of "chemical photography" of the sample in which the sample aspects hardly visible or not visible to the...
The common digital color photographs or the RGB images acquired by a desktop scanner can be processed in order to extract "information" on the characteristics of the sample. Such characteristics may concern the chemical composition of the sample, if...
Biopharmanet-tec has developed an innovative system for tissue repair and the local release of drugs stimulating regeneration, based on physically modified chitosan. Biocompatible and biodegradable scaffolds are prepared to be applied locally, to act...
