Sustainable minimization of antibiotic drug use due to quarter-selective dry off in dairy cows (Project)

Maintaining the therapeutic efficiency of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine requires their strictly demand-oriented use. In dairy production, antibiotics are used at dry off to cure mastitis and prevent new infections. Decision trees that select the animals to be treated on the base of milk recordings combined with a cowside test are increasingly used, but often base on inflammation...

Separation of nutritionally valuable components from brewers' spent grain using membrane filtration (Project)

For every hl beer produced in the brewing industry 20 kg brewers spent grains occur as a byproduct. Brewers spent grains contains ~ 80% water and is used as animal feed whereby an additional dehydration step is necessary due to shelf life. There is no known efficient substance based use of the incidental press water thereof as well as only a minimal amount of literature concerning its chemical...

Optimization of the fractionation of components from brewers' spent grain by the use of hybrid separation processes (Project)

In the context of the previous project "Separation of nutritionally valuable components from brewers' spent grain using membrane filtration” (project number 100261165), an alternative utilization concept was investigated for the largest waste stream or residue - the wet spent grain - resulting from the brewing process. In order to increase the feasibility of the developed process, the...

Collaborative project: Sustainable Production of Red Juices by Application of Innovative Processing Technology. Subproject 1 (Project)

"In the project, commercial enzyme preparations for the production of berry juice were characterized with regard to their different activities. The raw materials and pomaces were characterized with regard to their polysaccharides and anthocyanin content. Based on this, application recommendations for juice production could be derived. The substrate specificity of the fruit polyphenol oxidase was...

Complementary chemical-biotechnological process development for the novel production of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) from inulin-accumulating plants - subproject 3: FDCA chemocatalysis (Project)

In light of diminishing fossil resources, plastics like polyesters and polyamides based on renewable resources are a promising alternative to conventional, oil-based polymers. Their great potential is increasingly recognized by a growing number of plastic producers and entails appropriate R&D activities. A promising starting material for the production of bio-based polymers is...

Minimization of losses of organically produced fruits and vegetables in storages by an optimized management strategy based on sensor data and an adaptive model for prediction of quality development and shelf live (Project)

The research project focus on two aspects: The first goal is the non-destructive quality analysis of organically produced fruits and vegetables by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Beside common organoleptic parameters like the content of sugars and acids or firmness, also health-promoting ingredients such as polyphenols or antioxidants and parameters to predict shelf life (e.g. metabolic N...

Collaborative project: Implementation study of the application of the Nature Conservation App (NatApp) in agricultural and administrative practice in different federal states of Germany. Subproject 1: Coordination (Project)

The new CAP focuses on programmes for sustainable and environment-friendly farming and rural development, on more flexibility in measures, on administrative simplifications. The Commission wants more focus on performance rather than rules. This is also the motivation for the NatApp. It should make it easier for both farmers and administrations to apply and implement agri-environmental and climate...
