Joint Project: Development of an in vitro embryo toxicity tests with mouse embryonic stem cells: Subproject 1 - Analysis of embryotoxic effects in the light of new endpoints and metabolism using an expanded selection of materials (Project)

Improving a murine embryonic stem cell-based in vitro embryotoxicity test (phase II): Incorporation of cellular metabolism, establishment of new developmental endpoints and extension to new substance classes Assessing toxicity of chemicals for development and the reproductive cycle requires extensive screening and multi-generation studies. For chemicals used as drugs, segment studies have to be...

Collaborative project: Management of herbicide-resistant weeds - diagnosis and detection of herbicide-resistant weed populations in the field, GIS-based documentation, risk analysis and recommendations for management decisions - subproject 1 (Project)

Herbicide-resistant weed species worldwide spread and present a serious problem for farmers. Costs for weed control increase and farmers are facing with significant yield losses because of weed competition. The partners DuPont de Nemours, IDENTXX GmbH, University of Hohenheim and Heinz Walz GmbH aimed to develop and test a new sensor system for detecting herbicide resistant weed species in the...

Collaborative project: The development of innovative concepts for pig pens that will be socially acceptable also in the future based on a scientifically supported discourse of agribusiness, civil society and scientific actors. Subproject 1: Coordination (Project)

Innovative pig pens are the main issue to be analyzed by the project. They will be created in interdisciplinary heterogeneous group discussions that are professionally moderated. The evolving pen concepts will simultaneously be planned and visualized. A discourse between agriculture, civil society and science shall be initiated in order to create housing systems for pigs that meet the diverse...

Collaborative project: Estimation of infestation risk of yellowing viruses of sugar beet - Anticipatory development of control strategies taking account of the neonicotinoid and insecticide resistance of the virus insect vector - Subproject 1 (Project)

The aphid-transmissible viruses leading to yellowing disease of sugar beet can no longer be controlled after the ban of the neonicotinoid seed treatment. The project aim was to pave the way for the development of alternative integrated control measures and to support breeding in the development of resistance breeding programmes. Methods for the culture and maintenance of virus species were...

Development and implementation of sustainable strategies to improve food-safety and retain nutritional values by reducing fungal infestation and aflatoxin contamination in the food-chain in Kenya as model region for Sub-Sahara Africa. Subproject 1 (Project)

Maize and milk are food products which are highly accepted and commonly consumed by the African population. Unfortunately, both staples, livestock feed and milk, have been found to be frequently and heavily contaminated by fungal aflatoxins, and people are continuously exposed to levels which are far above the recommended levels. Nevertheless the consumption of these products is tending to...

Collaborative project: Development of a mobile and a portable underwater fish observatory (UFO) and construction of a UFO-network for monitoring fish stocks through coupling with a stationary UFO. Subproject 1: Coordination (Project)

The aim of the present project is to develop a trilateral test network consisting of a mobile and a portable underwater fish observatory (UFO), to link both with an existing pre-prototype UFO, to standardize the automatic pattern recognition for all three components and to optimize them so that species, size and weight classification can be achieved with a high statistical certainty (at least...

Collaborative project: Bring paludiculture into the practice - integration - management - cultivation. Subproject 1: Cultivation, management, portability and harvest of cattails and reeds, biomass quality, economic evaluation, knowledge transfer (Project)

The joint project is the task to examine the cultivation, harvest and storage, and processing of reeds and cattails under practical conditions and evaluate. This is in particular the biomass quality depending on Pflanzenherkünften, procedure design (cultivation, harvesting) and site conditions (water, nutrients) in the Centre of interest. Another project focuses in the field of economics. It is...
