Importance of salt intake and fruit and vegetable consumption by children and young people for the long-term blood pressure development (Project)
...However, the counterbalancing influence of higher fruit & vegetable (F&V) intakes may even be greater. Unfortunately, especially in children and adolescents, no specific research data is available, on whether a F&V-rich diet, can induce a stronger decrease in blood pressure than a diet with an exclusive salt reduction. The present project therefore aims to characterize the long term concomitant influences of salt and F&V intakes on the development of blood pressure during childhood and adolescence. ...Another aim is to examine, whether a higher salt intake and/or a lower F&V intake during puberty (presenting a critical period of eating habits readjustments) may predict an increased blood pressure level in young adulthood. ...

SYNBREED R3: Genetic and phenotypic characterization of a highly informative sample of German Simmental cattle (Project)
...Genotyping will be conducted within the genotyping platform T2 and all genotypes will be combined with existing phenotypes. ...Data generated within this project are delivered and stored in a central data base, and accessible to associated partners within the network (e.g. A2, A3, and A4). The results of this project will be checked and evaluated with respect to using molecular genetic information for various aspects in practical breeding programs. New innovative approaches will be integrated in existing cattle breeding programs and will help to increase the efficiency of future cattle breeding programs. Sub-projects: R3.1: Structured high-resolution association studies in cattle R3.2: Genotyping and bioinformatic analysis of candidate genes R3.3: Genome-based breeding strategies in cattle...

Minimisation of Listeria monocytogenes in cold-smoked salmon by means of biological preservation (Project)
...Ensuring food safety is a problem with smoked salmon. Findings of Listeria (L.) monocytogenes in smoked fish are repeatedly published in the Rapid ALert System for Food and Feed (RASFF). L. monocytogenes can cause serious illness in consumers and major problems for food processing companies. Due to the ubiquitous presence of L. monocytogenes, the lack of listericidal barriers in the production process and the ability of the bacterium to establish in the processing environment, it is a challenge to produce cold-smoked fish free of L. monocytogenes. ...

Joint project: Production and demonstration of the practicality of tractors with engines of emission level TIER 4 in operation with pure plant oil; Subproject 1: modification of TIER 4 Tractor engine (Project)
...Based on previous work, notably the results of the EU project 2ndVegOil, the development within PraxTrak aimed at lower fuel consumption, higher engine power when operated with PPO fuels, fuel-dependent engine control, extended lubricant drain intervals, longer particle filter (DPF) service life and DPF regeneration with vegetable oil fuel, the optimization of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system, and improved handling of AdBlue. ...Among these emissions are N2O (very high global warming potential so that even small emissions might have a significant impact), NH3, formaldehyde (CH2O), and acetaldehyde (C2H4O). ...The considered fuels are non-toxic and not hazardous to water (previous German water hazard class 0), thus allowing storage and use in environmentally sensible areas without any problem. ...

Feasibility, Requirements, Consequences - subproject 1 (Project)
...(2) To what extent could existing or potential future political programmes play a role here? (3) How will the market-driven demand for GMO-free and/or domestic protein animal feed develop, i.e. how much redirection in the procurement of raw materials exists due to market-based processes? ...For this purpose, the agri benchmark method is used to survey typical farms. In work package E the simulation of trade effects and land use changes is carried out which are connected with the measures derived in the previous work packages. ...

Influence of flavors during the use of new tobacco-containing and tobacco-free products for inhalation on puffing behavior, nicotine kinetics, short-term lung function and cytokines in the blood (Project)
...Additionaly, the utilisation of novel nicotine carriers (e.g. propylene glycol in e-cigarettes or nicotine derived from rooibos tea) also engenders chemical processes through consumption, which may exert a deleterious effect on the organism by introducing carcinogenic substances or triggering inflammatory reactions and mechanisms. ...The examination of the following products will be carried out over a period of three years: tobacco-containing (Glo Neo) or tobacco-free (Glo Veo) with added flavours, the nicotine-free e-shisha (X Bar) with various flavours and mentholating tobacco accessories as an addition to classic smoking tobacco products....

Investigation of animal welfare-environment-interaction of dairy cows. Subproject 2 (Project)
...In a first step work packages AP 0 to AP3 are preconnected. During this period (01.01.2020 - 31.03.2021), planning, construction and commissioning of the new TUI research barn will take place by the Chamber of Agriculture of North Rhine-Westphalia. When planning and constructing the experimental barn, all structural requirements necessary for the issues specific for the research should be taken into account. At the beginning (AP 1) and at the end of the first research project (AP 5), expert discussions are planned in order to be able to discuss issues and research questions. ...The interactions of the floor with animal behavior will be evaluated and discussed and published as part of an expert workshop (AP 7 and AP 8)....
