Detection of antimicrobial resistance genes in complex samples (Project)
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are spread globally and possible resistance mechanisms are diverse. Resistance spreads particularly easily where genes can be transferred between different bacteria through mobile genetic elements. It is difficult to get an overview about the resistance genes present in a complex sample (resistome) by using classic isolation methods and analysis of only a few...

Development of a LAMP assay for the detection of C. difficile in food (Project)
Clostridioides (C.) difficile is an anaerobic pathogen, which occurs ubiquitously in the environment. Usually, it causes nosocomial enteritis, which can be associated with severe complications and a high rate of recurrence. Increasingly, however, C. difficile infections (CDI) are occurring without association to hospitals. Contaminated food has been implicated as a source of infection. Due to the...

PEACHES: Examination in adolescence (PEACHES Teenager) (Project)
The overall objectives are the longitudinal investigation of (1) the development of unfavourable dietary patterns and nutrition-related diseases and of (2) potentially positive or negative effects of a (longer-term) vegetarian/vegan diet in children (compared to omnivorous control group) up to adolescence. Using the existing child dataset from birth to primary school age, in combination with a...

Development of a human Multi-Organ-on-Chip System to investigate the function of monocytes and macrophages after ischemia-reperfusion damage (Project)
The project aims to develop a novel multi-organ-on-a-chip system based on human cell types that can recapitulate the infiltration of monocytes and macrophages into cardiac tissue after ischemia-reperfusion injury in vitro and thus replace animal models. The key aspects and related questions include: 1) The optimization of a MOoC prototype into a cardiac tissue model that better reflects the cell...

Correlations of internal and external exposure for the use of epidemiological studies for risk assessment (Project)
In the scope of the EPIC-study there will be analysed blood samples with regard to arsenic in cooperation with the DKFZ Heidelberg. Therefore, data from EPIC-Heidelberg of 3.794 participants at the age of 35-65 years will be considered, that have been recruited between 1994-1998. The DKFZ will use the data for evaluating epidemiological questions in the context of the development of breast cancer...

Enhancing Added Value in Hemp Cultivation through the Identification and Utilization of Valuable Minor Cannabinoids (Project)
Hemp contains approximately 120 cannabinoids with potentially valuable pharmaceutical properties, many of which remain inadequately researched. By gaining a deeper understanding of these cannabinoids and developing hemp varieties with elevated concentrations of specific minor cannabinoids, the attractiveness and economic potential of industrial hemp cultivation can be significantly enhanced. As...

Follow-up investigation on rodenticide residues in wild boar 2024 (Project)
The aim of the project is to obtain further data on a possible presence of pesticide residues (rodenticides) in wild boar as a follow-up on a previous project (BfR-SiP-08-60-0102-02.P595). The data may be used to assess consumer risk. Within the framework of the project, liver samples from wild boar shot in Brandenburg are analysed for 8 active substances of the group of anticoagulants, which are...

Influence of insect feeding as a biostimulant on the resistance reaction of potatoes to Synchytrium endobioticum, the causative agent of potato wart disease (Project)
In a small research project in collaboration with the company REPLOID, the biostimulatory effect of insect feeding on the resistance of potatoes to potato wart disease is to be investigated. In order to investigate the influence of insect damage on the resistance reaction of potatoes to potato wart disease, pot tests are carried out in which different inoculum variants (with and without insect...

Promoting Innovations of Fermented Foods (Project)
Fermented foods (FF) are important due to their benefits for nutrition, sustainability, innovation, cultural heritage and consumer interest and are deeply rooted in the European food culture. Their potential to improve human health, promote innovation in the food sector but also the local production is of great importance in the coming decades. The challenge of COST-PIMENTO is to bring together...
