Abstract

ENDONANO addresses a key regulatory and safety issue, i.e., the unbiased quantitative detection of bacterial endotoxin in products for medical use and in drug development and toxicological studies. ENDONANO will exploit new concepts, based on the capacity of metal nanoparticles to adsorb endotoxin, and new detection methods, based on molecular beacons, for developing novel assays to quantitatively detect endotoxin in complex matrices and in a wide range of conditions. ENDONANO will train 4 PhD students in an overarching training programme that will include training by research, courses of technical, scientific, and transferrable skills, active participation to public scientific events, and intense intersectoral networking. The ENDONANO consortium encompasses three academic institutions, two SMEs, one biotech company and two Participant Organisations (SMEs).
