Shrimp Health Alert

Fast and precise Point of Care test for the detection of pathogens on shrimp farms under Measure 1.1 of the Smart Growth Operational Program 2014-2020, co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund; Priority I: Support for R&D by enterprises; Measure: 1.1 R&D projects of enterprises; Sub-measure 1.1.1: Industrial research and development work carried out by enterprises

Aim of the project: to develop a diagnostic test for the detection of viruses and bacteria on shrimp farms. The test is intended to be easy to use, fast, and relatively inexpensive, which will allow it to be disseminated among breeders, reduce material losses caused by epidemics and use drugs only when needed.

Expansion strategy for the foreign market – the Norwegian market

The project is co-financed by European Funds under the Intelligent Development Operational Program 2014-2020, Priority Axis III “Support for innovation in enterprises”, under action 3.3 “Support for promotion and internationalization of innovative enterprises”, sub-action 3.3.1 “Polish Technological Bridges”

The project aims to develop a strategy for the commercialization of modern diagnostic tests for the identification of pathogens on salmon farms in Norway. As part of the project, the possibilities of certification of new diagnostic devices, the size of the target market and the characteristics of target customers will be examined.

The result is a document presenting the strategy of expansion to the Norwegian market.

Co-financing value: PLN 200,000.00

Project FishSensor

Research and development works on a pathogens detecting system in fish farms as part of action 4.1.4 “Scientific research and development activities” of the Smart Growth Operational Programme 2014-2020, co-financed with the funds from the European Regional Development Fund, Priority Axis I “Increasing the scientific and research potential”

The aim of the project is to develop and implementation an innovative diagnostic test – FishSensor for the detection of the most common pathogens in fish cultures. As a result of the project, a device will be constructed that will allow immediate diagnosis of bacterial and viral infections on fish farms.
Total value of the project: 6 078 578,40 zł
Amount of funding for European Funds: 4 527 464,49 zł

AlgaFiber

“Development of an innovative health-promoting polysaccharide preparation containing easily absorbable proteins based on marine algae extract, together with the technology for its production”, implemented under the 1st NUTRITECH call – Nutrition in the context of challenges related to improving societal well-being and climate change – and financed from the state budget.

Grant Agreement No. NUTRITECH1/000O/2022 of 11 October 2023

Project objectives and outcomes:
The development of a globally innovative polysaccharide preparation, AlgaFibers, consisting of a complex of polysaccharides functioning as dietary fibre, as well as easily absorbable proteins obtained from marine macroalgae and mannitol. The preparation will contribute to lowering blood glucose levels through inhibition of alpha-amylases and alpha-glucosidases and will exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties characteristic of metabolic disorders resulting from lifestyle-related diseases. In addition, it will contribute to a reduction in cholesterol levels (by decreasing absorption and accumulation of saturated fats in liver cells, as well as enhancing their lipolysis), compared to preparations available on the global market (e.g. PGX, Enterfiber, Litesse).

Total project value: PLN 9,889,622.50
Grant amount: PLN 6,876,851.00
Project implementation period: 01.09.2023 – 31.05.2026

The project is implemented within a consortium:

Food4Future Technologies Sp. z o.o. – Consortium Leader (Enterprise)

H2O SCITECH – Water Institute – Consortium Partner (Research institution)

Tarczyński SA – Consortium Partner (Enterprise)
