Project title: MINETRA-Microneedle devices for transdermal administration of molecules

Objective: The objective of the project concerns the development of a process to produce microneedles for the controlled administration of drugs, compatible with the active ingredients with which the microneedles themselves must be loaded. The materials intended to be used are biocompatible and biodegradable, pure or in appropriate mixtures, to avoid the release of toxic products for the health of the people who will use these devices. The process to be developed will allow the low-cost industrial production of patches with microneedles based on polymers or hybrid polymeric blends thanks to “Very Large-Scale Integration” methods.

Funding: The project activities have been funded with Euro 426,609.60 of which 65% in the form of a grant (Euro 277,296.24).

Project title: PERSIA - Innovative packaging based on antimicrobial peptides for food safety

Objective: The objective of the project is the design of specific peptide sequences, potentially usable to increase microbiological safety in the context of food preservation. This process will take place through the functionalization of materials suitable for food packaging, through techniques of immobilization of peptide sequences, to promote a prolonged shelf life and an improvement of the microbiological safety and properties of the packaging as well as to preserve the organoleptic and nutritional values ​​of the food. In particular, the knowledge of bacterial adhesion mechanisms to surfaces and biofilm formation will allow the design and implementation of effective and easily transferable solutions to production plants.

Funding: The project has been funded with 1,079,000, in particular Materias has been granted for the activities with 215,700, of which Euro 150,000 non-repayable.

Partners: Materias is the leader of the consortium formed by ICIMEN2 S.p.a., SELEPACK s.r.l., 4. National Research Council (CNR), Institute of Biosciences and Bioresources - (IBBR) and Institute of Microelectronics and Microsystems (IMM), University of Naples, Department of Veterinary and Food Production.

Open call: POR FESR CAMPANIA 2014/2020 AXIS III - SPECIFIC OBJECTIVE 3.4 - ACTION 3.4.2 - Public notice for the granting of contributions to micro and PMI aimed at their internationalization programs

Funding Body: Campania Region

Project title: Peptidi antimicrobici

Description: Materias Srl carries out its activity of enhancement of innovative technologies in the advanced materials sector making use of the know-how and technical-scientific and managerial skills of its founders and its Key Persons in the field of academic networking in the private and public research system. Among the research lines that have been exploited, one of the most interesting is that relating to antibacterial peptides. In fact, starting from bovine cathelicidins, a specific peptide sequence has been designed and patented, very stable in wide ranges of pH and temperatures, which has a strong antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity. The action of peptides, both in solution and covalently linked to supports, was verified with bactericidal activity analysis and inhibition of biofilm formation test against Gram– and Gram + bacteria. The results obtained support the production of "ad hoc" functionalized materials for applications in various industrial sectors with reference to medical devices with antibacterial properties, antimicrobial packaging to improve the shelf life and conservation of food and spray solutions for the sanitization of industrial equipment in the agri-food sector.

Objectives: The project is focused on identifying potential investors (corporate or financial) interested in the technology related to antimicrobial peptides to increase food safety, in countries such as Canada and the United States, which are very sensitive to the issue of food preservation and safety of the consumer. Opening up to foreign markets and internationalization is one of the key elements of Materias Srl's business activity.

Results: The Materias Srl Internationalization Program provided for:

  • realization of a Marketing Plan for internationalization;
  • identification of potential North American partners;
  • the expansion of the presence of Materias Srl on new foreign markets;
  • use of a temporary office of Materias Srl in Canada;
  • bilateral meetings with foreign operators;
  • realization of an Italy-Québec webinar on the scientific evolutions and industrial applications of the antimicrobial peptide.

Funding: For the project activities € 100,767 has been granted for the project activities, of which 70% in the form of a grant (€ 70,536.9).
