Competitive exclusion of human pathogenic bacteria using the probiotic strain SF68 (Project)

Possibilities for biological control of human pathogenic bacteria will be investigated. For this, the effect of the probiotic strain E. faecium SF68 on the growth and survival of pathogenic bacteria such as Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica biovar Enteritidis, enteroinvasive E. coli, Clostridium difficile and Campylobacter jejuni will be investigated in vitro. Furthermore the potential...

Co-processing of upgraded bio-liquids in standard refinery unit(Biocoup) (Project)

The aim of BIOCOUP is to develop a chain of process steps, which would effectively allow biomass feedstock to be co-fed to a conventional oil refinery. Energy and oxygenated chemicals will be co-produced. The overall innovation derives from integration of bio-feedstock procurement with existing industries (energy, pulp and paper, food) and processing of upgraded biomass forms in existing mineral...

Proteomanalyses of different liver tumors of mice with activating mutations in the oncogenes ß-Catenin, Ha-Ras and B-Raf (Project)

The expression of RNA and proteins in tumors of mice with different genotypes will be investigated. The results should give some indications with regard to the mechanism of action of different tumor promoters. The investigations with dioxin-like and non-dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls should give same clarifying contributions to the questions, if the tumor promoting effects of these...

Impact of the carbon chain length of perfluor carbonic acids toxicity and molecular charac-terisation of the hepatotoxic effects of PFOA on the proteomic level (Project)

Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) are needed for the fabrication of various industrial products. These substances are chemically and biologically inert; they are global contaminants of wa-ter and soil. Contaminated foodstuff such as drinking water, fish, eggs and game are the main sources for oral uptake of PFAAs by the consumer (expert's report by the BfR on PFOS and PFOA in food; Sept. 11th 2008)....

Application of Bacteriophages for the Reduction of Campylobacter on Food (Project)

Campylobacter species have been recognized as a major source of human gastrointestinal diseases caused by the ingestion of contaminated food. Poultry, and especially chicken are considered major reservoirs of Campylobacter infection. Besides hygiene, additional measures have to be developed in order to reduce the number of Campylobacter in animals and on food products. Biocontrol by application...

Ablative Fast Pyrolysis plus Upgrading: AFP+UP (Project)

PYTEC has been developing an ablative fast pyrolysis process for the conversion of wood chips to bio oil. In contrast to fluidized bed systems, PYTEC's process works without heat carriers and fluidization media. The project is firstly aimed at developing a feeder system for straw-like material, such as miscanthus, sorghum, and silage. Another objective is the hydroprocessing of the crude bio oil...
