Organic production of garlic - broadening the range of varieties through selection of plant genetic resources - IPK (Project)
...In the 2nd year, these accessions are cultivated for propagation on 4 organic farms with different soil qualities and evaluated again. From the 3rd to the 5th year, 17 particularly suitable accessions are selected, cultivated, evaluated and the potential for variety development is determined by a public taste test. 2) Virus elimination of the selected garlic accessions to ensure high yield and marketability. 3) The evaluation of sulphur fertilisation on yield, bioactive substances and virus occurrence. From the 3rd to the 5th year, the 17 selected accessions are fertilised in parallel with sulphur granules and the genotype x environment interaction are investigated. 4) In order to identify genetic influences, 414 garlic accessions will be investigated at the IPK over a period of 3 years for yield parameters and bioactive substances and marker-trait associations will be analysed....

SFB 564: B1.3 - Water conservation scenario development at the regional level innovative mapping techniques (Project)
...Participative soil mapping, carried out in cooperation with A1.3, will help to find the boundaries of soil physical properties and to validate the soil map. Finally, the soil map information will be a tool which can be used for different kinds of models. In cooperation with C4.1; using the WaNulCAS model; efficient and adapted land use strategies will be developed and assigned to suitable areas. ...For this reason a participatory land suitability analysis (PALSA), in cooperation with A1.3, C4.1 and G1.2, will be applied to assure that the developed land use strategies will be acceptable for the local people....

Extent of migration of unwanted substances from packaging materials made of waste paper in food (Project)
...However, this analysis did not include all substances present and barely 2/3 of the substances detected could be identified. ...Internal bags varied strongly in their efficiency of protecting the food: polyethylene reduced migration by a factor of 2-3, polypropylene by approximately a factor of 100. ...Among the plasticizers, the highest degree of migration was determined for DiBP (3 mg/kg); about 50 % of the samples exceeded the migration limit of 0.3 mg/kg specified by the BfR. ...

Investigations on the carry over of Maduramicin from feed to egg (Project)
...To make allowance for this unavoidable carryover the EU has defined maximum levels for coccidiostats in feedstuffs intended for use in non-target animals in the directive 2009/8/EC.Maximum levels for all licensed coccidiostats for foodstuffs derived from non-targeted animals are established in the commission regulation (EC) 124/2009. In 2009 a report was submitted to the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, which included investigations on the subject of exceeding the maximum limit of 2 microgramm/kg maduramicin in eggs although the maximum limit of 0.05 mg/kg defined for carryover in feedstuffs was kept.Therefore further kinetic studies in non-target animal species are necessary to investigate the residue levels of maduramicin in animal products like eggs caused by contaminated feedstuffs in the range ofthe defined maximum level....

Studies on the functional effect of mixtures on processes of potentially dominant molecular and cellular antigen recognition and immunotoxicity (Project)
...In the present project, existing and new (immune) assays will be used to compare immunotoxicological single substance effects of an isothiazolinone preservative (such as BIT or OIT; all potential allergens) with known MIXTURES of isothiazolinones (e.g. MI plus BIT or OIT) with regard to their molecular immunogenicity and activating effect on human immune cells. 1) Immunogenicity (TEST ASSAY): Firstly, a modified mass spectrometric protein interaction assay is available (recently on the OrbiTrap), which can qualitatively identify the binding of the individual substances (analogue to the OECD DPRA (direct peptide binding) assay), with the advantage that a human model self-protein is used here. ...This proves that the chemical binding or interaction of BIT and OIT should also be possible in analogy to GSH. 2) Immune cell activation (TEST ASSAY): A panel of activation markers for human cells has already been developed at the FACS (PBMCs peripheral blood mononuclear cells), which can be used to measure the cellular effects of isothiazolinones. ...influence these processes. 3) Later (depending on 1)-2)), aspects of a possible T-cell response and/or T-cell-independent processes will be investigated....

Segetalflora in Europe under climate change - experimental modeling of species diversity (Project)
...These are based on several years of field studies on the biodiversity of segetalflora in grain producing regions within a mean annual air temperature range from 3.5 °C to 16.4 °C. The calculated spatial distribution of biodiversity in Europe shows great variation. ...In intensively used grain-growing regions with herbicide applications the floristic diversity is reduced by a factor of 3 in the Mediterranean and by 1.5 to 2 in temperate to cool climates. From floristic point of view large extensively used fields without herbicide applications and self greened 1- 2 year old fallow fields are necessary/suitable to protect the biodiversity in agricultural areas. ...
