The Department of Health and Human Services is offering a grant to support the development of novel technologies for accurate detection and diagnosis of polymicrobial infections in biomedical laboratory animal models. The grant aims to fund projects focused on creating sensitive, selective, and cost-effective detection systems for identifying infectious agents, especially those involved in vertical disease transmission in embryos and larvae. This opportunity is vital for maintaining pathogen-free biological resources in research and biological resource centers to support current and future biomedical research needs. Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) projects from small business concerns (SBCs) are encouraged to apply for innovative research proposals in this area.

| Description:: | There is a need to develop systems that are sensitive, selective, automated, and cost/size effective and capable of detection and identification of polymicrobial infections that may represent a threat to the survival of valuable biomedical animal resources or contribute confounding factors to research using these resources. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) seeks projects for rapid and sensitive detection of infectious agents as a key requirement for microbial identification in laboratory animal models. The diagnosis of polymicrobial infections has become increasingly important in enabling biological resource centers to meet the needs for establishing pathogen-free biological resources for current and future biomedical research needs. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages applications from small business concerns (SBCs) for Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) projects that propose innovative research in the areas of detection and identification of infectious agents, including those involved in vertical transmission of diseases into embryos and larvae and development of required reagents and equipment. (See more information listed in Section I. Funding Opportunity Description). |
