Associations between diet and internal exposure to mycotoxins among adults in Ghana and Ghanaian migrants in Europe (Project)
Mycotoxins, the toxic secondary metabolites of moulds, are acknowledged as relevant threats to food safety and food security, especially concerning Sub-Sahara Africa. Due to the diverse serious health effects of mycotoxins to human and animal health, mycotoxin exposure poses a considerable threat to public health. Yet, necessary data on internal exposure to diverse relevant mycotoxins as well as...

Pesticide Metabolites in Drinking Water (Project)
The WHO Guidelines for drinking-water quality (GDWQ) provides the international reference point for the development of drinking-water quality regulations world-wide. The GDWQ are updated through a rolling revision process in response to new evidence, uncertainty about best practice, and requests from stakeholders. The GDWQ are supported by a number of technical resources that provide the evidence...

Continuation of the Integrated Monitoring Program at the Neuglobsow Station (Brandenburg) (Project)
The "Integrated Monitoring" (ICP-IM) is an international cooperative program under the Geneva Air Quality Convention that examines the effects of long-range transported air pollutants on ecosystems across multiple locations in Europe. The program aims to observe the condition of ecosystems and to detect changes in community composition and nutrient cycles early on. It also investigates the...

Transfer of tropane alkaloids from maize silage naturally contaminated with jimsonweed (Datura stramonium) into the milk of dairy cows (Project)
The study will investigate the transfer of tropane alkaloids from maize silage naturally contaminated with jimsonweed (Datura stramonium) into the milk of dairy cows. A particular focus will be laid on analyzing the L-hyoscyamine content in the milk in order to close data gaps from previous experiments. The transfer study will also be combined with investigations on the behavior of tropane...

Cascading effects of climate-induced forest conversion on zoonotic pathogens in mammals (Project)
The aim of this joint project is to obtain data for an impact assessment of the adaptation of forest to climate change. For this purpose, different forest areas are selected and divided into monocultures of deciduous or coniferous trees, mixed cultures and specially climate-adapted tree varieties. Over the course of the project, small mammals (especially various mice and voles) will be caught in...

Sensor-based evaluation of drought stress tolerance in apple (Malus × domestica) (Project)
Background: The increasing frequency of hot and dry weather conditions, coupled with water shortages, poses significant challenges for fruit production. Perennial crops such as apples are particularly vulnerable to drought stress, including significant yield losses, reduced fruit quality, and increased susceptibility to diseases. In the long term, a lack of water can impair nutrient uptake and...

Large Language Models analysis for automatic FoodEx2 codification (Project)
The aim of the project is to explore Large Language Models (LLMs) for the codification of foods in the FoodEx2 system using textual descriptions. This will be based on experience feedback from existing ML tools - in particular SCA - used by EFSA and Member States for FoodEx2 codification (or classification of foods in other relevant nomenclatures) and improved for model training and testing...

Enterobacterales as hygiene indicators in meat production (Project)
The slaughtering and cutting of animals can lead to damage to the intestinal walls and thus to contamination of meat and infrastructure (equipment and facilities) with intestinal bacteria from the animal. As a rule, the infrastructure is cleaned as planned in production facilities using various approved decontamination agents and the success of germ count reduction is checked using selective...

EFSA EU-FORA 2024/25: Development of a qualitative risk assessment for meat from wild boar from a one-health perspective (Project)
Conducting a rigorous and graphically comprehensible risk assessment of the risk from the consumption of wild boar meat, taking into account uncertainties. While most qualitative risk assessments merely comprise a compilation of facts known from the literature, i.e. they are a review of the literature, they rarely include graphical flow diagrams that provide precise information on the qualitative...
