AMROCE – AGAINST CECs (AMR BACTERIA AND ANTIBIOTICS) IN WATER BODIES
Antibiotici, agenti patogeni e batteri resistenti agli antimicrobici (AMR) sono contaminanti emergenti (CEC) nei corpi idrici associati all’allevamento intensivo di pesci e animali nell’entroterra. AMROCE mira a ridurre l’inquinamento da antibiotici e la diffusione dei batteri AMR nell’intero ciclo dell’acqua attraverso una piattaforma di nuovi prodotti antimicrobici privi di antibiotici. Nel progetto, attraverso metodiche di nanoingegneria, verranno sviluppate reti per pesci antimicrobiche/antibiofilm e membrane per la filtrazione delle acque reflue. Agenti antimicrobici di derivazione marina ed enzimi antibiofilm saranno nano-formulati come alternativa agli antibiotici per produrre integratori alimentari per pesci e animali. Durante la produzione e l’uso dei nuovi prodotti verranno monitorate costantemente l’esposizione umana e la sicurezza ambientale.
UNIMIB è leader del WP3, che mira ad identificare i parametri relativi alla sicurezza del processo di nanoformulazione sia per i lavoratori che per gli utenti, considerando non solo la regolamentazione esistente, ma anche le lacune esistenti nell’attuale legislazione.
Coordinatore del Progetto: Tzanko Tzanov (UPC)
UNIMIB WP leader: Paride Mantecca
