ZooMap - Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (Collaborative project)

Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP), the causative agent of paratuberculosis, is discussed in the context with Crohn´s disease in humans. However the final impact of MAP for Crohn`s disease is still unknown. The network 'ZooMAP' consists of eight groups of different research fields (immunology, human- & veterinary medicine). The projects will focus on the appearance of MAP in milk and...

3R methods for the replacement and improvement of legally required animal experiments in the testing of immunological drugs (Collaborative project)

The project aims at introducing new test systems in animal assays required by law. The test systems are intended to bring about significant improvements with regard to 3Rs. Subproject (1) is designed to improve the tuberculin assay in guinea pigs step-by-step. This method is required in conformity with the pharmacopoeia. Beside the long-term replacement of the in vivo method, the project is also...

Zoonoses and food safety along global supply chains (ZooGloW) (Collaborative project)

So-called zoonoses, i.e. pathogens that are transmitted from animals to humans, can pose a significant risk to the public, when they are in food. Using the example of the flow of goods for the pig and poultry meat products possible damage scenarios are analyzed by the accidental contamination of food with pathogens. This will form the strategies to prevent disease outbreaks and to act and risk...

SafeFresh - Innovative monitoring and sterilization methods for the microbiological safety of fresh vegetable food production chain (Collaborative project)

The collaborative research project 'SafeFresh' aims to develop a comprehensive hygienic concept to reduce the risk of the population of getting ill from pathogens in food. The dispersal and colonization behavior of microorganisms is studied fundamentally. To prevent or to identify and eliminate contamination, control and inactivation process for industrial processing of fresh, perishable foods...

Food supply and Analysis (LEVERA) (Collaborative project)

The aim of LEVERA project is to create a universal quick diagnosis, allowing rapid identification of pathogenic microorganisms and their toxins in food. By involving the users the technologies can be tested directly during the project in food control. The aim is to design a biochip for stationary application, which is complemented by a rapid test for on-site analysis.
