Examination of flame retardants with emphasis on polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in human mothers milk from Germany (Project)
...Two main hypotheses were proposed: 1) PBDE levels may be higher in milk fromm mothers who consume food of animal origin than in milk from mothers who do not. 2) PBDE levels in human mild may decrease during the period of breast feeding....

Investigations on the carry over of Maduramicin from feed to egg (Project)
...In 2009 a report was submitted to the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, which included investigations on the subject of exceeding the maximum limit of 2 microgramm/kg maduramicin in eggs although the maximum limit of 0.05 mg/kg defined for carryover in feedstuffs was kept.Therefore further kinetic studies in non-target animal species are necessary to investigate the residue levels of maduramicin in animal products like eggs caused by contaminated feedstuffs in the range ofthe defined maximum level....

Translational Evolutionary Research: Tandem Project 5: Characterizing trade-offs of the human FUT2 gene for the improvement of gut health, subproject: Relationship between Lactobacillus diversity and host FUT2 genotype (Project)
...FUT2 encodes an α1,2-fucosyltransferase responsible for the expression of ABO histo-blood group antigens on mucosal surfaces and in bodily secretions. ...However, as these bacteria are also influenced by the FUT2 genotype, the study aims to determine the interactions of nutrition, FUT2 genotype and the diversity of gut bifido- and lactic acid bacteria on gut health....

Collaborative project: Modelling and measuring greenhouse gas emissions and nitrogen-leaching from raw material crop rotations (Project)
...The aim of this project is to expand knowledge about greenhouse gas emissions, carbon sequestration and carbon dynamics in cropping systems for the production of raw materials, in order to derive realisable, site-specific mitigation strategies. To achieve this, N2O emissions will be measured with high temporal resolution in long-term field experiments, and greenhouse gas formation processes (microbial processes, carbon storage and degradation) will be analysed. ...The cropping systems will be analysed with regards to their short- and long-term effects on soil fertility and soil processes, yield formation and product quality, as well as environmental, climate and resource efficiency. The measurement of N2O fluxes will elucidate mechanisms and factors influencing N2O formation. ...A key innovation is to link the analysis of the N-dynamics in soils and the N2O flows with C-turnover processes in soils. The N2O measurement data will also be used to validate our models. ...

Collaborative project: Measurement and balancing of material flows in agricultural systems with the purpose of reducing greenhouse gas emissions (Project)
...The Measurements of N2O-flows will be used to observe the mechanism and influential factors for the N2O emergence. An essential innovation is the analyses of the soils N-dynamic and N2O-flows in dependence with C-decomposition processes. The N2O measurement data also serves for validating models. ...

Asco Seq - The complete sequencing of the genome of the chickpea pathogen Ascochyta rabiei and an in-depth analysis of its transcriptome (Project)
...This project aims at (1) exploiting next-generation sequencing technologies to sequence the completely unknown genome of the fungal pathogen Ascochyta rabiei, and at (2) deciphering its completely unknown transcriptome (the entirety of expressed genes). ...However, the deciphering of the infection process will certainly catalyze research in at least two CGIAR centers (ICARDA, ICRISAT) and various NARs (and beyond), initially focusing on the underlying genes, with the aim to discover the difference between the various Ascochyta pathotypes and, in not-too-far future, to screen whole fungal populations in ICARDA‘s mandate region for avirulence genes and to design new strategies to predict spread of new mutants (characterized by e.g. up-mutations in key virulence genes). These genes are then known by sequence, which allows the design of specific primers and probes for diagnostic TaqManTM assays, that can easily be performed by the clients (virtually in every NARS or national university laboratory)....

FOR 756 Special project (Financial institutions): The role of financial institutions in absorbing shocks and reducing vulnerability: Evidence for households and small enterprises in rural Thailand and Vietnam (Project)
...The contribution of this project is fourfold: (1) go beyond most impact analyses of financial deepening by focusing on the most elementary problem of rural people, i.e. vulnerability to poverty; (2) aim for a complete picture of financial relationships by explicitly including the situation of informal and formal institutions, which both play an important role (even more so in Thailand); (3) analyze the risk situation of households by allowing for a subjective risk perception as advised by recent behavioral economics and by considering complements and substitutes for financial risk diversification; and (4) extend earlier approaches to a strictly comparable two-country study) in order to better identify generally relevant and institution-specific factors. ...

Collaborative project: Application of the photodynamic technology to reduce microbial contamination of conveyor belts and machine components in line with meat processing - subproject 1 (Project)
...The aim is to develop and investigate different technological approaches to increase microbiological safety along the process chain: (1) the development of a photodynamic based process for the efficient cleaning and disinfection of conveyor belts in meat processing, (2) the development of permanent antimicrobial coatings with high resistance for applications on conveyor belts and equipment; and (3) the development of a spray disinfectant for surfaces in meat processing which can be applied in daily cleaning routines and which has a temporary antimicrobial effect. In this way, the suitability of food-grade photodynamic catalysts (e.g., riboflavin derivatives) in meat processing will be explored. ...
