Determination of coumarin in different food samples (Project)

...From the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) a Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) of 0.1 mg/kg body weight was established. In Germany during the last years in food surveillance high concentrations of coumarin (up to 10g/kg) in cinnamon were measured. ...To enable also the analysis of samples with lower coumarin concentrations existing methods have to be optimised in regard to limit of detection. The developed method(s) should be validated by different validation concepts. With the developed method the concentrations of coumarin in different cinnamon containing food samples (e.g. tea, other beverages) and the influence of their preparation on the coumarin concentration will be determined. The concentrations of coumarin in other samples should be investigated. Since only some data on the bioavailability of coumarin from the different food materials are available in an animal experiment with a small number of animals the bioavailability of coumarin from coumarin containing products will be investigated....

The serotonin transporter gene in the laying hen and its relation to feather pecking (Project)

...The hypothesis is that mutations in the serotonin transporter gene (g-sert) could be partly responsible for these effects. ...The number of feather pecks (severe or gentle) and aggressive pecks given and received were recorded on an individual basis twice a day (1 h/morning and 1 h/afternoon) for 23 days at the age of 32 to 35 weeks. ...Severe feather pecking was the predominant type of pecking (on average 7.8, 1.3 and 3.6 severe, gentle and aggressive pecks given per hen, respectively) and therefore only severe feather pecking is presented here....

Molecular effects of flavonoid quercetin on human primary hepatocytes compared to those in mouse liver (Project)

...Due to its predicted anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-carcinogenic properties food supplements with a daily intake up to 2 g were recommended. However, the effects of such a high dose on humans can not be assessed. An in vivo study in mice revealed that orally given quercetin (10 mg/kg body weight for 3 days) causes a drastic change in mRNA pattern in the liver of fed mice compared to control animals. 1790 genes were identified to be differentially regulated with a fold change of 2 and a q-value of 0.05. In this study human primary hepatocytes should be used to analyse the molecular effects of quercetin on human liver The liver hepatocytes should be exposed to 3 different human relevant doses of quercetin covering the normal intake up to the dose ingested by supplements. ...

Entomological studies to control Bluetongue disease (BTD), WG 1 (Project)

...In August 2006 BTD was introduced from Belgium and / or the Netherlands to Western Germany from where it spread within 1 year to most other regions of Germany. The Friedrich-Löffler-Institute (FLI) recognized that the virus belonged to the serotype 8, one of other 20 occurring in South Africa. ...The UV-traps were activated during the nights of the 1rst until 8th day of every month and resulted in the catch of large amounts of ethanol preserved insects. ...In 2008 no positive pool was detected in the catches of January until Mai. 4. Clinical symptoms in infected ruminants occurred mostly 1.5-2 months earlier than viruspositive midges in the test. ...
