Addressing the triple burden of malnutrition through behavioural change in food consumption and physical activity: A rural-urban comparative study in Tanzania - subproject 3 (Project)

The aim of the interdisciplinary research project FoCo-Active is to analyze and address the problem of the 'triple burden of malnutrition' in Tanzania. The FoCo-Active project takes an innovative approach by simultaneously addressing food environments and physical activity spaces, nutrition, consumer behavior, and physical activity/sedentary behavior in urban and rural areas in Tanzania....

Advancement of toxicological study parameters in human cell cultures (Project)

The toxic and sensitizing potential of complex mixtures of substances, which can migrate from consumer products to skin, are studied in human cell cultures (primary keratinocytes, dendritic cells). Methods for determination of reference parameters (e.g. cellular protein con-tent per culture) and the simultaneous measurement of different biochemical/toxicological endpoints have to be advanced.

Agricultural systems for the future: Co-Ordination and communication (Project)

The food4future project is based on a novel approach: The mega trends – “Designed Food” and “Natural Food” – in their impact as “creative disrupters”, will not only dominate future diets, but also replace traditional agricultural production. This will be done against the background of two profound scenarios – “No Land” and “No Trade”. Challenged by these extreme settings, the overall objective of...

Agricultural systems for the future: future nutrition - subproject ED (Project)

The food4future project is based on a novel and radical approach: The mega trends – “Designed Food” and “Natural Food” – in their impact as “creative disrupters”, will not only dominate future diets, but also replace traditional agricultural production. This will be done against the background of two profound scenarios – “No Land” and “No Trade”. Challenged by these extreme settings, the overall...

Agriculture and Dietary Diversity in Africa (Project)

The aim of this project is to improve the knowledge on agriculture-nutrition linkages in the African small farm sector and develop approaches how the uptake of pro-nutrition innovations can be promoted. Representative household data from four countries (Ethiopia, Malawi, Kenya, Uganda) will be analyzed to better understand the relationship between agricultural production diversity and nutritional...

Allergies and foreign body reactions in tattoo inks: identification of substances and influencing parameters (Project)

Data on biokinetics of pigments after injection into human skin are key in the risk assessment of tattooing. The tool of animal experimentation, actually required to obtain reliable data, can be supported and reduced in its extent by working out a defined list of pigments to be tested and by the analysis of samples from tattooed persons beforehand. For such a project, analysis of frozen and...
