… of MNPs on our immune system will be continued, which will include research on pathogens, like bacteria and viruses, which can be associated to MNPs. The acquired knowledge will contribute to … that microorgansims can degrade different types of plastics. Furthermore, a variety of bacteria were collected from plastics in the environment and will be identified. The …

… Exercise, a healthy diet, and good, healthy liquid intake stimulate the growth of good bacteria in the gastro-intestinal tract. The gut microbiome is very complex, however, and is …

… more active in combination than alone (called synergism) against multi- drug resistant bacteria. The tasks of the EMC involved the overall coordination of the project, identification …

… new risks of plastic particles. For example, the first ZonMw projects revealed that certain bacteria and viruses thrive well on plastic and can therefore be transported by MNPs into the …

… compounds were also shown to be active in vivo, as they blocked growth of fish tuberculosis bacteria in a zebrafish larvae infection model. As expected, these compounds did not block the growth of other bacteria, they are specific for the tubercle bacillus and closely related species. One of the … containing two noTBsec members, which discovered the benzothiazinones as promising new antimycobacterial compounds. A major disadvantage of most existing and new TB compounds is that they …

… to palliative irinotecan treatment is variable and gastrointestinal toxicity common. Intestinal bacteria are in part responsible for these adverse effects. Microbiota manipulation to prevent irenotecan-induced gastrointestinal toxicity holds promise, but tools to examine the bacteria involved in drug metabolism are currently lacking. Here, we aim to develop a … anticancer-drug metabolizing microbes in the human gut, and we will sort and characterize these bacteria. U-OK SNM - Ultrasound for Obtaining Knowledge on Sacral Neuro Modulation Dr A.T.M. …

… of chronic diseases will be investigated. The project also examines whether pathogens, such as bacteria or viruses, are attached to MNPs. The knowledge obtained will contribute to a sound …

… for potential new dangers of plastic particles. The first ZonMw projects revealed that certain bacteria and viruses thrive on plastic and can therefore enter the body via MNPs. Now we will …

… examine the immune system and so-called biomarkers (signalling substances) in blood, as well as bacteria in the faeces. This data clarifies the body's response and can hopefully provide us …

… lungs and intestines and are taken up in the blood and brain. These particles can also carry bacteria and viruses with them, which they introduce into the body. Recently, it has been …
