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...

Uniqueness theorems and analysis of classical density functional theory in nonequilibrium random geometries (Project)
Describing the time evolution of various types of classical models for colloidal fluids by methods of statistical mechanics has become an important research area in physics over the last decades. This requires appropriate theories which are predictive, accurate and also numerically realizable. A promising option is classical dynamical density functional theory (DDFT), which, however, faces the...

Plant-based milk alternatives: nutritional and health aspects in children (Project)
Cow's milk has been a staple food for humans for thousands of years. It plays an important role in current nutritional recommendations for children and adolescents. Recently, plant-based milk alternatives based on cereals, pulses or nuts have increasingly been marketed as substitutes for cow's milk. Also in children, cow's milk is increasingly being replaced by these so-called plant drinks. Data...

Loss of immuno-reactive O-antigen in Salmonella enterica (Project)
The differentiation of Salmonella isolates is classically based on the serotyping of the O-antigen and the H-antigens by means of slide agglutination using the White-Kauffmann-Le Minor scheme. The National Reference Laboratory for Salmonella receives about 3-5% of Salmonella annually that can not longer be typed due to the loss of O-antigen reactive units. However, whole-genome sequencing (WGS)...

Microbiome applications and technological hubs as solutions to minimize food loss and waste (Project)
The main objective of FOODGUARD is to develop and demonstrate co-created innovations and applicable sustainable solutions in food processing and packaging, based on microbiome (microbial networks and their interactions within the developed niche) in combination with advanced digital technologies to fight food loss/waste. FOODGUARD envisages the industrial application of certain microbiota and...
