The Ecopest Tech Solutions project, in which Galicia&#8217;s biotech ecosystem participates through the Bioga Business Technology Cluster and is led by the onTech Innovation Cluster, aims to revolutionize the sustainable use of biocides for controlling insect and rodent pests in urban environments. This initiative began its Phase III last August and consolidates and expands upon previous progress, as well as implementing high-tech solutions for controlling insect pests (mosquitoes and cockroaches).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What innovations has the Ecopest Tech Solutions project developed so far? Phase I focused on defining strategies, compounds, and technologies for the use of biocides in pest control, protecting human and animal health and the environment through safer and more effective technological solutions and formulations. Phase II developed a rodent monitoring system validated in real-world environments, incorporating innovations in image analysis for rodents, improved traps, and an IoT platform for monitoring and decision-making. The project conducted a massive screening of molecules with biopesticide potential, identifying the most promising and safest for humans and the environment. Phase III will continue to build on these advancements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Ecopest Tech Solutions III project, included in the Innovative Business Clusters (AEI) support program and funded by the Ministry of Industry and Tourism with \u20ac200,000, creates healthier and more environmentally friendly urban environments. The research, in which Bioga, chaired by Jos\u00e9 Manuel L\u00f3pez Vilari\u00f1o, is participating, seeks a direct impact on people&#8217;s lives by reducing their exposure to chemical products and promoting ecological control that respects human, animal, and environmental health.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bioga, which achieved accreditation as an Innovative Business Group in 2023, contributes its expertise in communication. Jos\u00e9 Manuel L\u00f3pez Vilari\u00f1o: \u201cFrom Galicia, we are making all our assets, talent, resources, and tools available to seek and find innovative solutions for the intelligent use of biocides in cities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Multidisciplinary project<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The multidisciplinary consortium in which Bioga participates and which coordinates the onTech Innovation Cluster also includes Athisa Medioambiente, Nazar\u00edes Intelligenia, Cactus, and the MEDINA Foundation. Each entity contributes its expertise in key areas such as the environment, communication, knowledge transfer, and biotechnology. It is a multidisciplinary consortium that combines scientific knowledge, technological capabilities, and industrial experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With this new phase, Ecopest Tech Solutions consolidates itself as a strategic project that paves the way towards smarter, more effective and environmentally friendly pest control services, reinforcing the protection of public health and the sustainability of cities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>+ info : www.bioga.org Bioga Press Office: 679.486.961<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Business Technology Cluster of Life Sciences (Bioga) contributes its experience to an initiative that carries out a massive screening of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":8170,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8521","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sin-categorizar-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The Ecopest Tech Solutions project, in which the Galician biotech sector participates, is advancing in the use of biocides against insect pests. | Bioga<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Bioga es el Cluster Tecnol\u00f3xico Empresarial das Ciencias da Vida de Galicia.
