Comparative investigations of different in vitro methods for the applicability to the detection of the sensitizing potential of pigment particles and tattoo ink allergens (Project)
The BfR has been active in the field of allergy and tattoo ink research since 2012 to better understand the hazard potential of this intradermal color application and to provide a better basis for risk assessment. In this project, testing of tattoo-relevant substances and color particles will be performed using validated OECD methods and the in-house developed AIM T cell assay to test for...

Development of qualitative, quantitatve and imaging analytical methods for the analysis of tattoo inks, pigments, particles, fibres and consumer products (research focus 3, department 7) (Project)
Different topics relevant to the BfR in the field of non-food-products require the use of specialized test procedures or the development of analytical methods to accurately describe materials and consumer products. Such newly developed methods can be relevant in the context market surveillance, hazard and risk assessment or research in many areas. This includes the investigation, identification...

Development of novel application methods and evaluation strategies for the genotoxic and phototoxic assessment of tattoo pigments and poorly soluble substances in in vitro assays (Project)
A number of substance classes exhibit extremely low solubility in aqueous media due to molecule-specific properties and predominantly occur in micro- and nanoparticulate forms. Due to their strong tendency to aggregate, the interaction of these substances with the biochemical cellular apparatus is significantly reduced when considering their chemical single-molecule characteristics. However,...

Development of analytical method for identification and quantification of tattoo pigments and inks (Project)
Although tattoo pigments are generally substances of low solubility, detailed investigations of their solubility under physiological condition are needed. Besides dissolved pigment material, releases from the pigments can include contaminations, degradation products – especially from UV-/light-radiation – or metabolites. Within this project, tattoo inks and the respective tattoo pigments will...

Implementation and development of methods for elemental composition determination of samples using ICP-MS (Project)
Since the beginning of 2023, the PB Institute has had a state-of-the-art triple quadrupole ICP-MS for determining the elemental composition of samples. The primary aim is to establish robust methods for routine analysis across all the Institute's projects. Methods for water, plant and soil samples are being adapted to more complex and demanding matrices such as organic and mineral fertilisers....

PFAS in the LIFE Child cohort - Longitudinal Internal Exposure and Associations with Vaccine Antibodies (Project)
The LIFE Child Cohort is a research project on child health at the University of Leipzig that has been running since 2011 and has so far included more than 5000 children. The children are examined longitudinally, ideally annually and from birth. In the project, frozen serum samples from selected children are examined for PFAS. The aim is on the one hand to record the course of internal exposure...

Establishment of international cooperation to share knowledge and to establish modern organoid culture for drug assessment and toxicological screening (Project)
This project aims to foster the international collaboration between the BfR (Germany) and KIT (South Korea) to find synergism and to combine know-how. Therefore, joined symposia and workshops that address organoids and stem cells, as well as standardization and validation will be organized to help foster scientific knowledge exchange to implement a common strategy to establish standardized...

Increasing yields of lignocellulosic permanent crops by and for biochar (Project)
Biochar application to soils can positively influence their physical and chemical properties. Especially marginal sites can benefit from the resulting soil amelioration. In Dauerco@l, we investigate how fast-growing, lignocellulosic permanent crops (poplar short-rotation coppice) on very sandy and clayey soils can benefit from biochar application. Simultaneously, we develop an agroforestry system...
