An in silico/in vitro hybrid method using inducible Estrogen/Androgen receptors (ER-α/AR-β) to screen EDCs from tattoo inks/PMU (Project)
Obj. 1 QSAR toolbox pre-screening of potential pleiotropic classification of tattoo colorants into EDCs category. As a first step, we will categorize tattoo pigments/PMU into EDCs catgory based on their binding ability with different hormone receptor. Obj. 2 In chemico experimental binding using Microscale Thermophoresis (MST) to measure binding affinities of colorants flagged in QSAR as EDCs. As...

Studies on the functional effect of mixtures on processes of potentially dominant molecular and cellular antigen recognition and immunotoxicity (Project)
Objectives: Consumer products consist of chemicals of different origin and composition. In the present project, existing and new (immune) assays will be used to compare immunotoxicological single substance effects of an isothiazolinone preservative (such as BIT or OIT; all potential allergens) with known MIXTURES of isothiazolinones (e.g. MI plus BIT or OIT) with regard to their molecular...

Monitoring agro-ecosystems of sub-Saharan Africa: Pesticides and land use as stressors for plants, bees and pollination interactions (Project)
During the initiation of collaboration our objectives are to 1. Understand the working conditions of our project partners in Africa 2. Provide our African project partners with the needed skills to conduct long-term pollinator monitoring and research as well as residue sampling 3. Assess what methods are feasible for the agricultural landscapes we encounter 4. Establish good working relationships...

Validation of the usability of zooplankton as a temporal integrator of pesticide contamination in small water bodies (Project)
In the project, 30 small standing waters in Germany (Brandenburg) and 30 small standing waters in Spain (Catalonia) are being investigated with regard to the concentrations of pesticides in surface water and zooplankton. We assume that the analysis of pesticides in zooplankton will provide information on long-term pesticide exposure, as the organism can accumulate the active substances over time....

Circular nutrients for a sustainable Baltic Sea Region (Project)
CiNURGi’s main objective is to encourage the creation and development of a circular economy for nutrient recycling (NR) in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR), with emphasis on enhancing current infrastructures and technologies to maximize NR from biomasses and resource streams coming from agriculture, municipalities, and industry. The development of a circular economy around NR in the BSR will decrease...

Development of NIRS estimation models in the laboratory and in the field (Project)
NIRS databases will be established and crop-specific calibration models developed for the non-invasive and non-destructive determination of dry matter content, fibre fractions (ADF, NDF, ADL) and crude nutrients such as crude ash, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre and sugar. Existing databases for forage, grass silage, silage maize and cereal grains will be used and progressively extended....

Preventing stored product pests in Germany (Project)
Economic impact assessment of above-ground and underground hermetic grain stores (JKI-SF). The conversion to hermetic grain storage leads to a variety of changes on farms with economic effects. The aim of the economic analysis is to quantitatively evaluate the economic effects of the new technology. In a comparative evaluation, the investment and operating costs of differently constructed...
