Nutrition Report 2008: Section: prevention by nutrition, part of the 'relation between nutrition and tumor development' (Project)
In order to make statements about the influence of dietary factors on the development or prevention of cancer can, was carried out for the EB2004 from DIfE a literature study and applied a new statistical method (the concept of preventable proportion: percentage of cancers that would not occur if in Germany by the DGE or WHO recommendations adopted would apply). For the EB2008 is for the chapter?...

Models for the financing of consumer protection work in Germany (Project)
'The following facts are scientifically to work: First There are alternative - independent as possible of annual government grants - funding models for consumers to show work in Germany. To investigate the nation-wide consumer organization Consumer Federation Association (vzbv) and Foundation and the Consumer Goods Test centers in the country. Here are the issues as well as the potential of...

In vitro tests for photogenotoxicity assessment as alternatives to photocarcinogenicity tests in ro-dents (Project part 1). (Project)
Materials, which are photo-activated under the influence of light (in particular the UV portion of the sunlight) may form reactive intermediates that when dermal exposition is given, can result in DNA damages and thus increase the risk of light induced skin tumors. The evaluation of the photo-carcinogenic potential is therefore essential part of the safety examination of ingredients of certain...

Development of quantitative and qualitative molecular biological methods to identify plant and animal species in foods (MolSpec-ID) (Project)
The project aims to develop molecular biological based methods for the identification of animal or plant species with regard to unexpected food ingredients that could cause allergenic reaction as well as fraudulent replacement of food components. These methods will enable food producer as well as food control authorities to check the composition and the correct labelling of products with the aim...

Construction and Prevalidation of V79 Pathway Cell Lines: Heterologous Co-Expression of human Cytochrom P450 1A2 and polymorphic forms of human N-Acetyltransferase in V79 Chinese Hamster Cells for in vitro-studies on toxicity and metabolism of chemicals and drugs. (Project)
V79 cells were genetically engineered for stable co-expression of human cytochrome P450 and genetic variants of human N-Acetyltransferase. Both enzymes together handle aromatic amines, e.g. 2-aminofluorene and other structurally related chemicals. As for all chemicals and drugs it is of fundamental importance to understand metabolism in order to identify metabolites which are responsible for...

Action Programme Environment and Health. Project: Improvement of the /Recording of Human Exposure Data for the Quality Enhancement of the Monitoring System 'Cases of Poisoning Reported by Physicians under Section 16e of the German Chemicals Act (Project)
The reports by physicians under Section 16e Chemical Act have shown that human exposure data quality and product identification have to be improved. Under the routine conditions in doctor?s surgeries and hospitals, the most important exposure data such as products involved, pathways, assessment of the amounts ingested or inhaled should be documented as exactly as possible. The study is focused on...

Improvement of an in vitro stem cell assay for developmental toxicity: Establishing molecular endpoints of tissue specific development (Project)
The aim of this study is to improve an in vitro approach for developmental toxicity that is based on blastocyst-derived pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells of the mouse (cell line D3), the so-called embryonic stem cell test (EST). The EST represents a reliable, scientifically validated in vitro system for the classification of compounds according to their teratogenic potential based on the...

Nature conservation by organic farming: Restoration of local populations of rare and endangered arable field plants on organic farms in Germany (Project)
Abundance and diversity of arable weeds have been strongly declining in many European regions. The main factors for reduced agro-biodiversity are herbicides, fertilizer treatments and other practices of modern agricultural management. In response to this biodiversity crisis several programs have been launched. A successful program was the field margins concept, but due to bureaucratic obstacles...
