Abstract:
The goal of the project is to develop new ecological sustainable chitosan based nanofibers by ecological electrospinning method in view of application in healthcare and environment protection. The central idea is to use quaternary salts of chitosan as co-spinning agent of chitosan to prepare a library of chitosan/quaternary salts of chitosan nanofibers (C/Q-NF). This will be further developed by embedding various fillers towards composite nanofibers and by imination towards dynamic imino derivatives, targeting to amplify properties for certain applications. The project proposal implies a systematic investigation of the new ecological nanomaterials, by laborious laboratory work and a solid knowledge of the state of the art, to produce a database comprising manufacture conditions/products/properties. Thus, the novelty of the proposed nanomaterials, the well documented premises behind their design, and the well-organized form of presentation of the project findings will contribute substantially to facilitate the transfer of the research to application towards the society benefit.

Abstract:
The present project proposal is the result of the cumulated experience of two teams, which intend to further bring together researchers with diverse and complementary skills and expertise in chemistry, materials science, and pharmacology to provide a marketable product for burn wound healing. The proposal is made considering the critical socio-economic impact of burns, especially in low- and middle-income countries, such as Romania.
The product is designed in the form of a non-woven fiber bandage made of biodegradable chitosan, and is expected to promote the scar-free healing, without trauma.
To reach this goal, the original approach of the project is to produce nanoporous chitosan fibers, which are able (i) to encapsulate a broad-spectrum antibiotic (norfloxacin) inside the interconnected nanopores created in the fibres mats, (ii) to ensure a high swelling degree of the fibers, necessary to allow the exudate drainage while maintaining a moist environment for healing, and (iii) to obtain tiny chitosan surfaces, facilitating biodegradation over the healing period. The fibers will be sealed by iminoboronate units, which also exhibit a strong antimicrobial activity.
Therefore, the final product is expected to ensure the exudate drainage and to act as a barrier against bacterial and fungal infections. In addition, the product is biodegradable, which avoids the traumatic debridement process characteristic of traditional dressings. The product is designed to respond “on demand” to the infections threatening healing, circumventing the need for cleaning and redressing, which allows the body to do work on its own.

Abstract:
Agriculture and food industry in Romania generates large amounts of co/by-products, which are not used and turn into wastes, with negative impacts. The approach of the project PRO-SPER is to develop integrated processes, flexible and interconnected, to transform a number of agro-food by-products in bio-products, with market demand. This approach facilitates the achievement of project goals, complex-coordination and linking of the research organizations that are members of the Consortium, INCDCP-ICMPP, UDJ, ICECHIM, INCDSB and UAV, for improving their institutional performance in the field of nano-and bio-technologies of their application into bioeconomy.
The overall objective of the project PRO-SPER is to increase the impact of research and development activities and innovation of the RDI institutions, by developing and harnessing innovative technological solutions for bio-nano-processing of several by-products from the bioeconomy value chains, for recovering and/or formation of value-added components and their use in order to obtain products with high added value.
Expected results through the implementation of the project (21 new jobs, 23 national patent applications and international patent applications 6 EPO/WIPO; 10 technologies/new products resulting from the project, at a level of technological maturity to enable taking over by the operators, 5 services research and technological research services 10 cheques, 10 experiments cheques services
80 internship of young researchers from and within partner institutions, 50 visits for developing new techniques for working jointly in the Consortium, 30 training internships for new employees, 28scientific papers, 1 joint program CDI, in line with the development plan of institutional partners) have a significant impact on the capacity-building of the partners in the Consortium.
