Investigations on the suitability of different pulps for the production of tissue papers (Project)

For the production of tissue paper, softwood pulps are preferred over hardwood pulps because they supply better paper strength due to their longer fibers. On the other side, hardwood pulps are of interest for the production of tissue papers as well, because they give better softness and better volume and thus better absorptions properties. In this study the focus was put on the suitability of...

Comparison of the German and Polish social security systems in agriculture: Impacts on social security, financing systems and financial development, distributional impacts (Project)

The comparison between the German and the Polish systems of social security for farmers had the following results: Despite great variety in entitlement rules, insured persons (spouses and family members working on the farm), level of benefits, etc., the sectoral systems for farmers have considerable problems in common: They have more old age pensioners than contributors, a high dependency on...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in smoke and ingredients (e.g. spices) in meat products (Project)

Central objective of research was the development of a GC/MS method for the determination of several PAH in smoked meat products, liquid smokes and ingredients (e.g. spices). With the help of this method the contents of carcinogenic PAH in smoked meat products and liquid smokes were investigated with regard to reproducibility and accuracy. These investigations are important with regard to the...

Carcinogenic Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in liquid smokes and smoked foods (Project)

The Commission Regulation (EC) No 208/2005 provides maximum levels for benzo[a]pyrene in different food groups, which are however based on an insufficient data. Therefore the European Commission recommends the member states, to report the contents of benzo[a]pyrene to EFSA in order to revise these maximum levels in 2007. In addition also the contents of PAH compounds highlighted to be...

Variability of cytochrom P450 enzymes in human lung tissue (Project)

Contribution to the risk assessment of chemicals in the framework of the IPCS-programme: Replacement of default factors for interindividual variability by means of more realistic data derived safety factors. Investigation of xenobiotica relevant metabolic properties of lung tissue as an important target organ for toxic effects of chemicals.

SPP 1149: Analysis of heterosis in Arabidopsis thaliana via metabolic profiling (Project)

The project aims at comprehensively characterizing metabolic regulations that are observed in reciprocal crosses of Arabidopsis thaliana compared to the corresponding parental lines and in recombinant inbred lines and corresponding test crosses. In the first 2-years period of the project, emphasis is given to acquire data for large sets of plant populations (P, F1, F2, RIL and TCRIL) by routine...

Identification of proteins from spots of gel electrophoresis using mass spectrometry (Project)

The main intention of the project is the establishment of in-vitro techniques in toxicology. There are also other approaches, which describe the use of 2-DE/Proteomics in in-vitro test systems. However, there are usually specific questions in the middle of the attention. A systematic testing of these systems regarding regulatory toxicological endpoints with most modern technology is however still...

SPP 1090 AG 4: Determination of the turnover rate and stabilization rate of organic substances using natural 13C-abundance (Project)

Quantitative knowledge about the assimilation rates of crop residues into different fractions of the soil organic matter (SOM) is an important prerequisite for an understanding of the regulation of the stabilization of organic substances in soils. The objective of the project is to study the turnover and stabilization rates of maize C in the soils of the maize monocultures (since 1961) of the...
