Embryonic stem cell-based novel alternative testing strategies (ESNATS) (Project)

ESNATS aims at developing a novel toxicity test platform based on embryonic stem cells (ESC), especially human ESC (hESC), to accelerate drug development, reduce R&D costs and propose a powerful alternative to animal tests (3 Rs).ESNATS will address current drug-testing shortcomings: - testing takes place late in the development cycle- animal test systems bear the risk of non-prediction due to...

Ways to avoid excessive alcohol content of wine (alcohol management) (Project)

'First project goal: product quality of different taking into account alcohol content: the later first project goal: product quality of different taking into account alcohol levels. Represents to the future users of alcohol Reducing methods, the question of what alcohol aiming it is low alcohol content while promoting the volatilization of flavors, but reduce also the body of the wine. Selected...

Ways to avoid excessive alcohol content of wine (alcohol management) (Project)

There are a total of about 700 non-Saccharomyces yeast strains by screening and fermentations their fermentation behavior and their fermentation performance (breakdown of sugar), its alcohol-forming abilities (' 'alcohol reduction' '), its sensory expression and oenological and fermentation physiologically relevant lead compounds in the recovered wines are characterized. There are subjected...

Ways to avoid excessive alcohol content of wine (alcohol management) (Project)

'Due to global warming in Germany especially in the wine-growing region (South-) Baden grapes with undesirably high must weights / sugar levels to be expected, leading to wines with undesirably high alcohol content. As part of this collaborative project is therefore by the National Viticulture Institute (WBI), Freiburg, mainly in keller economic sector are sometimes investigated the possibilities...

Ways to avoid excessive alcohol content of wine (alcohol management) (Project)

'Due to global warming are in Germany and particularly in the specified region Württemberg grapes with extremely high sugar content / Most weights expected. The resulting wines have an alcoholic content of 14 to 15.5% Vol Such high-proof wines are from the customer only slightly accepted, especially since the character of German wines in the market dominated by medium alcohol content, the result...

Ways to avoid excessive alcohol content of wine (alcohol management) (Project)

'The custom design of the canopy by viticultural management measures play an important role. The leaf / fruit ratio is an objective measure of the quantity or quality of the grapes, depending on how long this takes leaf area. This is both the potential sugar storage than by the photosynthetic performance the formation of aromatic substances by light intensity and temperature is beeinflusst.Ziel...

Ways to avoid excessive alcohol content of wine (alcohol management) (Project)

'This project is a subproject within the project,' 'alcohol management' 'and deals with the emphasis on' 'Microbiology. Within the focal point is the question of the possibilities for the production of wines with reduced alcohol content processed into five work packages. These include a ) '' non-yeast '': selection of wine yeasts with low alcohol yield, 2) '' glucose oxidase '' remove glucose and...

Development of an analytical, imaging method for the determination and localisation of nanoparticles in a cell line (THP-1 cells) (Project)

According to the investigations of the Woodrow Wilson institute the number of nano-enabled consumer products increased nearly fivefold from 2006 to 2009. A similar trend was ob-served for food contact materials. It is anticipated that this general tendency is continued.In accordance with the report of the Woodrow Wilson institute from August 2009 especially silver nanoparticles are the most...

PERFOOD - Perfluorinated Compounds in our diet (Project)

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) have high thermal and chemical stability and are mainly used in the textile industry for the manufacturing of breathable clothing and in the paper in-dustry to manufacture dirt, fat and water-repellent paper. Because of their specific chemical properties PFCs are classified as long-lived organic contaminants. They are ubiquitous in the environment across the globe....

Array based analysis of endocrine-disrupting properties of selected plant protection products in the low dose range in vitro (Project)

The evaluation of plant protection products and biocides with potential endocrine disrupting properties will become more important in the future also due to recent scientific progress and novel regulations. Because of the necessity to analyze mechanisms of toxicity in this context while at the same time reducing animal testing, appropriate in vitro methods will become more and more important for...
