SenzaGen awarded EU grant of € 2,4 million in heavy competition, to develop GARDair for industry use
SenzaGen has received a grant of € 2,4 million from the EU's research and innovation framework program Horizon 2020 to develop GARDair, the first generation test for respiratory allergies. GARDair is the first in vitro test that can detect air-borne chemicals that cause respiratory allergies, by using a unique gene technology. This follows the international 3Rs principle, Reduce, Replace and Refine, and is the first cell-based alternative to animal testing for the respiratory tract. The grant of 2,4 million Euros means that SenzaGen can develop and refine GARDair at the same time
