Characterisation of colistin resistant Salmonella strains, screening for mcr genes and research on novel colistin resistance determinants. (Project)

...In the years 2016 to 2018, seven additional mcr genes (mcr-2 to 8) were identified. A PCR screening of approximately 442 colistin-resistant (MIC 2 mg/L) Salmonella enterica isolates originating from food producing animals and food products collected since 2011 at the BfR showed, that many isolates (47%) carried the mcr-1 gene. ...An extended PCR screening for the resistance genes mcr-2 to mcr-5 revealed, that 13% of isolates carried the mcr-4 and 5% the mcr-5 gene. So far, mcr-2 and mcr-3-positive isolates were not detected. ...

Modern molecular diagnostic methods: Development and use of the DNA chip technology for comprehensive influenza virus diagnostics (Project)

...For the rapid detection of infections with AIV (especially HPAI H5N1) and for a detailed diagnostic characterisation of the pathogen, the use of modern molecular diagnostic methods is vital. ...We plan to establish systems which in addition to subtyping of H5 and H7 permit the rapid identification of all currently existing HA subtypes (H1 to H16) and NA subtypes (N1 to N9). Isolates from different species, including wild birds, can thus be classified directly into a specific subtype b)Investigation of antigen modifications in isolates of a current outbreak. Currently occurring H5N1 isolates can thus be classified into specific genotypes, and genetic elements which are a sign for an adaptation of a current avian influenza A virus to other hosts (e.g. humans) can rapidly be detected. ...

Collaborative project: Biotechnical control of cherry fruit fly species (Rhagoletis cerasi and R. cingulata) considering the reduction of insecticide use – Subproject 2 (Project)

...We developed bait sprays with plant derived insecticides (NeemAzal®-T/S and NeemAzal®-T, a.i. Azadirachtin (Neem), Spruzit® Neu, a.i. ...Regarding bait uptake NeemAzal®-T revealed to be more favourable compared to NeemAzal®-T/S, Spruzit was strongly repellent. Weekly applications of low amounts of NeemAzal baits achieved efficacies up to 100% in field cages and after optimizing the trial design 94% in a field test, with an infestation rate of 0.5%, clearly below the economic threshold. As Azadirachtin inhibits ovarian maturation and egg development it is most efficient when ingested by young females. ...

Improving protein quality of roughages in ruminant nutrition by using silage additives on the basis of condensated tannins. Subproject 1 (Project)

...Both additives restricted the degradation of true protein linearly when the concentration increased from 0.5 to 3% of DM. The additives Amasil NA, BIO-SIL and tannins limit the proteolysis and the formation of undesired metabolites even in very low dry matter ranges and allow the production of high quality silages. ...When quebracho was added at 3.8% of DM there was no impact on digestibility. Feeding 6 kg DM of Lucerne ensiled with 3.8% quebracho to dairy cows did not change the feeding success. ...

Principles and strategies for the procurement of high quality and adaptable forest reproductive material under climate change (Project)

...The increased growth potential contributes to a higher CO2 fixation, while a better quality is prerequisite for a repeated use of wood before it is finally used for energy production (cascade use of wood). ...This program will provide a total of 4,200 plus-trees (Douglas-fir 800, Norway spruce 600, Scots pine 550, larches 450, oaks 900 and Sycamore maple 900) for future breeding activities in Germany.
