Scientific evaluation of the project: Renewable energy in Nusbaum-Freilingen (Project)

Anaerobic digestion of energy crops makes high demands on the substrate feeding system,the homogenization of the fermenter material and the utilization of the produced heat. In order to evaluate the suitability of different feeding and mixig systems measurements will be carried out on two digester systems of similar design and substrate input. In addition the application of the thermal energy for...

FUGATO - host-pathogen interaction of E. coli resistance in the poultry and its use in breeding programmes (Project)

E. coli-Chick was established to systematically study host-pathogen interaction in E. coli resistance in chickens and to develop applications to breeding programmes. Mortality due to infection with avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) is the major reason for economic losses in poultry industry worldwide, regardless of the production systems in use. New strategies to control APEC infections are not...

Evaluation of quality parameters of ramson depending on different cultivation methods (Project)

It is well known that ramson has various fields of therapeutic applications. Beside the preventive effects regarding cardiovascular diseases (arteriosclerosis), recently it has been proved that blood circulation is significantly improved by administration of ramson. Finally, it has been found, that consumption of ramson leaves results in an increased formation of bile acids as well as digestive...

Functional Genome Research for the Improvement of Fertility in Livestock (Project)

FERTILINK is a consortium investigating molecular mechanisms of fertility problems in cattle. In this species, more than 40% of embryonic losses occur between day 8 and day 17 of pregnancy. This high embryonic mortality rate has enormous economic implications, increasing the calving interval and retarding genetic progress. To systematically analyze the cross-talk between preimplantation embryos...

Development of Genetic Markers for Immune Defence and Resistance in the Porcine Respiratory Tract, Projects 1-4: Infection, Proteinbiochemistry, Immunology (Project)

The consortium IRAS aims at the development of genetic markers for immune defense and resistance in the porcine respiratory tract. Infections of the respiratory tract pose a severe economic problem. Pig farmers alone are spending more than Euro 1 billion per year on the control of these infections which, to date, is mainly carried out by antibiotic herd treatment and vaccination. Genetic...
