      Projects of the Institute for Chemistry and Bioanalytics

      Our highlights

      • Testing brain medicines in the fast lane

        New in vitro model of the blood-brain barrier helps pharma identify promising candidates.

      • Splice it up

        Abdullah Kahraman is harnessing long-read sequencing to identify new biomarkers and drug targets

      • Safety first!

        Andreas Zogg brings chemical engineering companies and students together to make shared advances in process safety.

      • Big hopes for nanomolecules

        Nano-engineered shield for enzyme replacement therapy could help it reach targets in the brain.

      All projects in alphabetical order

      • Agriloop

        Pushing the frontier of circular agriculture by converting residues into novel economic, social and environmental opportunities

      • Animal experimentation: 3D for 3R

        To reduce the number of animal experiments, HLS researchers are working on alternatives such as cellular 3D test systems designed to emulate organs and their function.

      • Brushing your teeth without detergents

        Researchers at the Institute for Chemistry and Bioanalytics have optimised the composition of an enzyme toothpaste.

      • Electra

        Electricity driven low energy and chemical input technology for accelerated bioremediation.

      • Ingreen

      • Made to measure treatment

        HLS researchers, in collaboration with firms in the Swiss medical sector, have developed a way to measure nutrients in the blood quickly and easily without the need to visit a doctor.

      • Mar2Protect

        Preventing groundwater contamination related to global and climate change trough a holistic approach on managed aquifer recharge

      • Nanotechnology in cleanrooms

        Researchers at the Institute of Chemistry and Bioanalytics working with Skan AG have developed a catalyst system to break down hydrogen peroxide more efficiently.

      • NYMPHE

        New system-driven bioremediation of polluted habitats and environment

      • Prolific

        Integrated cascades of PROcesses for the extraction and valorisation of proteins and bioactive molecules from Legumes, Fungi and Coffee agro-industrial side streams.
