Short description (English)	Swiss alpine plants for the control of urinary tract infections
Abstract (German)	Urinary tract infections (UTI)belong to the most common and recurrent infectious diseases. Few European products are available against UTI recurrence. Pharmalp aims at discovering an herbal food supplement active against Escherichia coli and/or preventing UTI. The plant extract candidates will be investigated in a mouse UTI model and urine will be submitted to in vitro (3D cell culture) model. The active plant extract will be subjected to phytochemical investigations.
