Project

ALERTOX-NET

A Network for introduction of Innovative Toxicity Alert Systems for safer seafood products

TerritoryEuropean
Funder:European Union
Duration2017-2020
StatusCompleted

Objective

Alertox-net main objective is to facilitate market delivery of safer marine food products by putting urgently needed innovative Toxicity alert systems for emerging marine toxins in the value chain. The systems will consist of cost-effective, easy-to-use, detection and alert methods, which will facilitate adoption by industry. The new developed tools will be also tested for toxins that are currently regulated so that industries which are not adapted, e.g. they are not aware of the toxins and methods, can benefit from better protected products for their consumers.
