COST PHOTOTECH TD1102 “Photosynthetic proteins for technological applications: biosensors and biochips”
 

COST TD1102 aimed to create an international research network of experts and early stage researchers involved in the study of all aspects of photosynthesis necessary for the development of photosynthesis-based bio-devices, with a special focus on biosensors. The main outcome was the development of a fully characterized class of bio-organic-inorganic hybrid biosensors to be first applied in environmental monitoring and agri-food quality analysis.

 

Biosensors Srl supported the design and production of two main prototypes AMP-BIOSENS & ANTIOX-BIOSENS that were used to produce the biosensors described below.
