A smal l Danish company has developed an intel l igent passive sampler for water qual ity
measurements - a technically and operationally unique worldwide-patented method enabling cost-
effective management of environment and drinking water supply. The company is looking for
partners from industry, academy and research organisations active in the field of water quality
monitoring with relation to groundwater contamination, wastewater treatment and/or drinking water
production.
A Dutch university has developed a new method for large scale fish production. Hormone injections
used in aquaculture to synchronise breeding stock induce peak concentrations of hormones and
stress leading to the failure to culture many fish species. This method based on hormone producing
cell implant opens new species culture possibilities at any time of the year. Aquaculture partners are
sought to license this new technology and collaborate on further developments.
A UK company offers technical consultancy on all aspects of hydrocolloids for use in the creation and
stabilisation of texture in foods, particularly in moist/wet pet foods. The company’s expertise includes
the identification of opportunities and options, technical support for factory and market
implementation, troubleshooting and technical coaching. The company is seeking partnerships for
technical cooperation and bespoke consultancy.
A Dutch university has developed a procedure for the purification of hop iso-alpha acids. The iso-alpha
acids are involved in the taste and quality of beer. The contribution of each isomer which could
previously not be purified can now be studied. It could be used as test compounds in taste and quality
evaluation or ingredient for the development of new beer. The pure individual compounds can be
delivered and partners are sought for licensing or further product or process development.
A French company has developed a inhalation/aspiration connector that allows using a single-use
catheter for aspiration. This catheter is protected by a soft sheath, which allows easy manipulation
without risk of contamination. This single-use catheter fits perfectly to the connector through a
specific universal connection, avoiding depression. The company is looking for a license agreement
or a commercial agreement with technical assistance for this product.
An Italian company provides a platform for Proteomic and Metabolomic Sciences and related studies.
The service consists of a state-of-art platform for proteins and small molecules analysis. The service
ranges from assistance in protein extraction, separation and characterisation to protein identification
and characterisation. The platform guarantees high-throughput studies for identification and
classification of small molecules in vegetal, animal and environmental complex matrices.
A research group based in the North of England has developed an automated balloon inflator for use
in angioplasty procedures. This prototype has benefited from repeated use in the clinical
environment. The research group is looking for collaboration with either a research institute or a small
to medium company that would be looking to develop this into a commercial product.
A French medical researcher offers a drug that cures aggressive behaviour due to dementia:
Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia. This drug has fewer side effects than other known
treatments of aggressive behaviour. This drug could be usual in patients affected by degenerative
and vascular brain disease. The researcher is looking for license agreement or commercial agreement
with technical assistance.
An Italian university research unit has developed and patented a method for the determination of
toxicity caused by the exposure to chemical and physical agents. The method is based on the use of a
biosensor, where aerobic or facultative anaerobic immobilised cells are employed. The respiratory
function is taken as parameter, as it is particularly sensible to toxicity. Partners are sought for license
agreement.
A Dutch SME specialised in pharmaceutical technologies, has developed a technology that makes
instant mixing of a dry immiscible medicine in water or alcohol possible. The instant suspension
powder is an easy to use low cost alternative for current branded and/or generic suspensions but also
suitable to be used as a formulation for new applications. Partner is sought in the pharmaceutical
industry that can use this technology for their products. License agreement/joint venture are sought.
A UK company is offering award winning high throughput design, cloning, rapid expression and
purification of recombinant proteins.The company is interested in manufacturing agreements,
commercial agreements with technical assistance or technical cooperation.
A Basque university in Spain has patented a new method of functional microarrays that offer
information about the specificity and functionality of new compounds in a single assay. It is very
useful for compounds that show affinity for G protein coupled receptors (GPCR). They are looking for
technical cooperation with drug discovery companies and research groups.
A Dutch SME has developed a nerve guide to facilitate nerve regeneration after transection of
peripheral nerves and improve nerve function recovery. It is made of a 100% synthetic lactide-
caprolactone polymeric material. Mechanical support is given to the healing nerve for a period of 12
weeks. Furthermore, the influx of low molecular weight nutrients required for optimal nerve
regeneration is not reduced. The company is looking for a partner for a commercial agreement and
technical assistance.
A Dutch company specialised in the development and licensing of pharmaceutical application forms
and technologies has developed novel ingredients that are especially suited to masking the taste of
pharmaceutical drugs. Using these taste-masking ingredients, which can easily be mixed in a liquid
form to the drug, medicine will be much easier swallowed by small children and the elderly. A partner
is sought in the pharmaceutical industry for licensing or a joint venture.
