Collaborative project: Development of antimicrobial packaging solutions for the self-service area to improve safety and shelf life of meat and meat products - Subproject 2 (Project)

The aim of the project Safe-Pack was to develop novel antimicrobial packaging solutions to increase the quality, shelf life and safety of meat and meat products and to reduce losses. Therefore, intrinsically antimicrobial (SAM®) polymers were further developed for use in plastic trays, absorbent pads and foils in the meat industry. A detailed characterization of the new materials regarding their...

Collaborative project: New approaches for a genetic improvement of health traits of the dairy cow with a focus on the neo-partus period - Subproject 2 (Project)

Todays dairy cows have reached an enormous production potential and therefore the focus of breeding goals is shifting away from production traits towards health traits that still need genetic improvement. Modern breeding programs could better reflect these conditions if new approaches to record field data would be used more effectively. When recording systems have to be implemented afresh, it has...

Collaborative project: Innovative methods of trait recording in dairy cattle as a basis of the modern breeding program of the Nord-Ost-Genetic – Subproject 2 (Project)

Today, the improvement of health and functional traits has become a key issue in dairy cattle breeding. However, it is still the case that traditional recording schemes hardly supply any precise data for these important traits as are required for reliable progeny tests of bulls. On the other hand, a concise collection of such data is possible by using contract herds which are attached to the...

Collaborative project: Assessing performance in relation to animal health and welfare and their economic implications based on an aggregated indicator concept in dairy production. Subproject 2 (Project)

"Animal welfare in livestock husbandry is an important societal issue. In dairy farming, production diseases and the short life of dairy cows are the main reasons of concern. They indicate an overstrained capacity of the animals to cope with their living conditions as well as of the farm to meet animals' needs. In the “Tier-Wirt” project, a concept for the data-based evaluation of ""animal...

Collaborative project: Development of biotechnological methods for the identification, conservation, propagation and use of selected maple trees with wavy grain for timber production - Subproject 2 (Project)

Wavy grain maple is one of the most expensive hardwoods in Central Europe. In the frame of this project, biotechnological methods for the propagation of valuable wavy grain maple material and for the long-term conservation of genetically characterized clones will be developed. In addition, investigations towards the heritability and recognizability of the wavy grain will be conducted. Another aim...
