Projectomschrijving
Changing EU regulations leads to an increase in demand for the development of sustainable chemical crop protection products. Screening the (side) effects and the development of new biopesticides requires an infrastructure with medium to high throughput capacity. This project fits in with the activities of the IOF consortium CropFit and its related Core Facility 'CropFit Services. This proposal aims to automate the assessment of bio-nematicide activity in the context of screening experiments for the industry and (contract) research to reduce repetitive and time-consuming tasks of technical staff and researchers.
