Influence of temperature on the quality of fruit and vegetables (Project)
Fruit and vegetables are still living organisms after harvest with a very active metabolism. Carbohydrates, organic acids, fats, and proteins are degraded by biochemical reactions because of a high metabolism and respiration. Strong respiration is able to lead to a higher water loss and reduction of quality during long-term storage at wrong temperatures. Therefore, fruit and vegetables should be...

Mycotoxins and microomycetes: Characterization and selection of harmless molds for use in the food sector (Project)
Species belonging to the genus Penicillium are known to produce a variety of mycotoxins. The use of non-toxigenic isolates is therefore of a major concern when selecting strains for improving mould-ripened food products. For initial selection 249 different strains of the genus Penicillium originally isolated from food products have been used in this study. The isolates were grouped according to...

Improving the health quality of food by increasing and modifying the carotenoid content (Project)
This projekt is sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Science with the aim to improve carotenoid availability in food. Our institue investigates formulated carotenoids in cell culture systems in vitro as well as bioavailability and physiological functions of carotenoids from processed food in human dietary intervention studies. Garcia AL, Mohan R, Koebnick C, Bub A, Heuer T,...

Monitoring of desirable and undesirable substances in foods and biological tissues (Project)
The aim of the investigations is to gain extensive knowledge about desirable and undesirable substances in foods and biological tissues. This can often be achieved by monitoring investigations. In the course of this, foods are analyzed by state-of-the-art analytical techniques on minerals (e.g. calcium, magnesium) and trace elements (e.g. iron, zinc) essential for humans. Additionally, the...

Strategic based plant protection through pararetrovirus and non-coding RNA interactions (Project)
Shifting from seed-based to vegetative propagation as done for a growing number of cash crops has increased the likelihood of viruses and viroid-induced diseases, epidemic spread and accumulation of pathogens. Virus/viroid mixed infected petunia plants will serve as model to study the underlying mechanisms in both latent and symptomatic phenotypes and will elucidate the role of solanaceous and...

Evaluating the impact of landscape structure and source-sink dynamics on non-target arthropod pesticide risk assessments in Germany (ELONTA) (Project)
Structural and functional heterogeneity of the landscape with the mosaic of both semi-natural habitats and cultivated fields controls species population dynamics in agro-ecosystems (Vasseur et al. 2012). In particular, pesticides can affect non-target arthropods (NTA) populations both within fields and in non-cultivated areas (through long-range effects), and their effects appear to be strongly...

Guttation in Winter oilseed rape- a possible water source for honeybees? (Project)
Systemic seed treatments are indispensible for WOSR crops in Germany. At present active substances from the substance class neonicotinoids are nation-wide in use. These substances are systemic, in soil and plants rather persistent and have a high intrinsic bee toxicity. A.S. used in systemic seed treatment can be translocated into Nectar and Pollen in not-critical amounts. Furthermore, Winter...
