Determination of furan fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acids in food (Project)

...Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) isomers are C18 diene fatty acids with different conjugated double bond configurations. ...The commercial reference CLA-isomers c9,c11-, c9,t11-, t9,t11- and t10,c12-octadecadienoic acids are separated and identified. ...The commercial reference FFA 9,12-Epoxy-9,11- and 10,13-Epoxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acids are separated and identified. ...

Actions of Botulinum Toxin A in nerve-muscle-tissue-cultures: A proof-of-principle-study (Project)

...Muscle activity was significantly different between the sham and botulinum toxin treated group (Kruskal-Vallis test, p-values for 24, 48 and 72 hours: 1.8x10-5, 1.9x10-2 und 6.0x10-4, respectively). In more than half of the cultures exposed to botulinum toxin, muscle activity declined to less than 0.15 Hz. Under control conditions the corresponding value was 1.58 Hz. ...The limits of detection of the test system were between 1 and 2 mouse-LD50-units. The results suggest that testing of 30 cell cultures should be statistically sufficient to show whether or not a test solution contains botulinum toxin A at a concentration corresponding to 2 mouse-LD50-units or higher. ...

Alternative pest control methods with insect pathogenic nematodes to keep corn rootworm populations under the injury threshold (Project)

...Overall objectivesComparing nematode-based biological control options as alternatives to synthetic pesticides in the management of established Diabrotica maize pest populationsSpecific objectives1. Investigating the efficacy alternative control measures, i.e. nematode-based biological control products applied into soil during sowing, in their efficacy at keeping larvae of established D. v. virgifera populations below threshold levels2. ...The latter is suggested to be 0.75 for irrigated conventional maize growing in northern Italy (R. Edwards, 2011, pers. comm.).o Ca. 12 plants of each 24 plots to be infested, i.e. 300 and/or 500 eggs x 12 x 24 = 86,400 eggs x 2 fields = 172,800 eggs (egg production in CABI labs on-going, if 500 egg infestation for root damage x 6 plants x 24 x 2 fields = 144,000 extra eggs).o 1 D. v. virgifera emergence cage covering 6 plants will be placed over each plot (1 cage x 4 plots x 6 treatments = 24 cages x 2 fields = 48 cages on 288 plants)o Root damage and yield will be assessed from 6 infested plants per each of the plots of each treatment (6 plants x 4 plots x 6 treatments = 168 plants x 2 = 288 plants)...

Development of diagnostic methods for pests and diseases of forest trees (Project)

...The topic of this research is the development of trustable diagnosis methods for cryptic (e.g. Phytophthora species) or difficult to allocable tree pathogens like tree rooting fungi. Another example is the ash dieback fungus Hymenoscyphus albidus with the anamorph form Chalara fraxinea which causes massive damages on ash. e.g.: Pehl, L., Wulf, A. 2001: Mycospharella-Nadelpilze der Kiefer - Schadsymptome, Biologie und Differentialdiagnose. ...Deut.

Comparative investigation of antibiotic-resistant, food-borne pathogens in plant and meat products in Nigeria and Germany (Project)

Development of a molecular diagnostic for sustainable and resource-efficient production of the renewable resource potato starch. Subproject 1 (Project)

...The following results have been achieved in the reporting period: WP1 Development of molecular markers for resistance to pathotypes 1,2,6,18: Extensive resistance tests were performed for the following groups of material: a) Potato varieties with known resistance spectrum: The inoculum for the tests of 47 varieties with multiple resistance, 50 varieties with P1 resistance, 50 varieties with P1 susceptibility and 80 wild species with unknown resistance or susceptibility to potato wart disease was increased for all four pathotypes (in total 15,900 warts). b) Segregating populations: 24 genotypes were infected with pathotype 1 and 18 genotypes with P18, seedling tissue was taken after 2, 7, 14 and 21 days and frozen, then shipped to partner LUH. c) Crossing populations with other donors of resistance: The parents of each crossing populations were tested with all four pathotypes (588 tubers). 150 genotypes of the population Panda x L04 were tested with 20 tubers on pathotype 18 and the distribution of the means was calculated. ...
