Collaborative Project: Smart Wood Supply Chain Management (Project)

...For a continuous evolution of the forest-wood-supply chain towards industry 4.0, a benefit-oriented migration approach is needed. ...The goal of this research project is to identify and evaluate the potential of industry 4.0 in the forest-wood-supply chain along the value chain. During the project’s duration, (a) the operational potential of industry 4.0 for the optimization of existing processes of the value chain, and (b) the strategic potentials of industry 4.0 for the further development of existing or completely new business models will be identified. ...

Expression analysis of drug-metabolizing enzymes in human keratinocytes after treatment with selected xenobiotics (Project)

...CYP1A1, CYP1B1 (Luch, 2004). It indicates that tissue-specific differences may apply in respect to enzyme expression levels and activities. We have further demonstrated a strong induction of CYP1A1 and 1B1 protein levels by western blot. Experiments to determine the enzymatic activities of selected CYPs (CYP1A1, 1A2, 2A6, 3A4, 1B1, 2B6, 2C9, 2C8, 2D6, 2E1) are scheduled for the next funding period. ...Since some metabolites, e.g. BaP-7,8-Dihydrodiol, are preferentially detected in human 3D skin models but hardly in keratinocytes, it requires further attention whether differentiation of human keratinocytes can alter metabolism of certain reference compounds. ...

Common European method for the determination of particulate matter emissions from solid fuel burning appliances and boilers (EN-PME-Test) (Project)

...Apart from the two German partners (TFZ and DBFZ), there are 11 other European partners from 9 European countries involved in the project. Their work is divided into 5 technical and scientific work packages (WP's): WP0 – Coordination, WP1 - Evaluation of existing methods and selection of suitable methods, WP2 - Detailed elaboration and validation of the suggested method, WP3 - Performance of round robin tests with the selected method(s), WP4 - Adaptation of the selected method to further applications, WP5 - Evaluation of the selected method....

Isolation and characterization of avian influenza H9N2 from mixed respiratory infected chickens in Bangladesh and assessment of mucosal immunization possibilities (AvH-Fellow) (Project)

...Thus, AIV H9N2 was circulating in Bangladesh before the first detection of HPAIV H5N1 (PARVIN et al. 2014). ...The Bangladeshi G1 viruses also donated internal genes to contemporary circulating HPAIV H5N1 (PARVIN et al. 2014). ...Multiple infections with avian influenza viruses were detected including highly pathogenic and zoonotic strains such as H5N1 and H7N3. A deeper molecular characterization of these and further strains also enabled the detection of avian influenza virus subtype H9N2 viruses with specific alterations in several genes. ...

Development of an oral application technique for the antibody-induced growth promotion in aquaculture (Project)

...Even at a 200-fold higher dosis compared to the intraperitoneal injection (0.0076 mg IgY g BW-1 day-1) no instestinal uptake of IgY was detected in the short time experiments (36 h). Neither uptake enhancers (Tween 20, Sodium deoxycholate und Vitamin E TPGS) nor pH protective supplement (NaHCO3) improved IgY uptake significantly. The final feeding trial (8 weeks) revealed significantly improved food conversion, protein efficiency ratio and protein retention compared to the fishmeal control in carp. ...

Collaborative project: Strategies to avoid boar taint during fattening of entire male piglets - subproject 1 (Project)

...Therefore 775 performance tested intact boars (Pi x F1) as well as the purebred sires (Pi) were genotyped with the SNP60 Illumina Bead Chip and phenotyped. ...Accuracies ranged between 0,65 and 0,70. In order to verify the gs-breeding values 162 AI-sires were mated with crossbred dams. 2946 intact boars were fattened and phenotyped for boar taint. Calculated heritabilities were on a high level (h2: 0,4-0,6). Furthermore it could be shown that the frequency of tainted carcasses can be reduced significantly by the selection of boars based on gs-breeding values....
