CRC-3P

The goal of the CRC-3p-project is to trace the carcinogenic potential of red meat and plant-based meat alternatives to reveal the significance of the protein source and the degree of processing (unprocessed, processed, ultra-processed) on colorectal cancer (CRC) development. Additionally, CRC-3p aims to elucidate how dietary patterns may influence the carcinogenic potential of the different processed foods.

ShellFeed

Today, about 92 percent of the raw materials used in Norwegian aquafeeds are currently imported. Shellfish can be a sustainable feed supplement and valuable local marine resource, but are regularly contaminated with algal toxins. The ShellFeed-project aim at providing knowledge about the toxicity of the algal toxins (OA/DTXs and STXs) in salmon after dietary exposure, and potential carry-over of these toxins or their metabolites into fish fillets or by-products.

DetoxBug

Insect larvae are considered as a promising protein source for more sustainable animal feed. The aim of the project is to explore if the larvae of the Black Soldier Fly are able to detoxify mycotoxins so that they can consume contaminated materials that otherwise would have to be destroyed. The absence of mycotoxins or their degradation products in the larvae would mean a sustainable value enhancement of larval products and reduction of biomaterial wastes.

PARC

PARC is a EU funded partnership for risk assessment of chemicals. Some main aims of the project are to provide new data, methods and innovative tools to those responsible for assessing and managing the risks of chemical exposure and to strengthen the networks, which bring together actors specialised in the different scientific fields contributing to risk assessment.

BIO-Direct

BIO-Direct is a strategic internal project at the Veterinary institute, funded for 4 years 2019-2022. The project involves more than 20 researchers and technical staff organized into five cross-diciplinary teams: 1. Disease biomarkers, 2. Immune protection, 3. Gene editing, 4. Cell models, and 4. Multiplexed immunoassays.
