CT-Image Analysis of Cold-Water Corals within Gravity Cores
Cold-water coral (CWC) ecosystems constitute important carbonate factories along all ocean margins, where they form locally large 3-dimensional structures called CWC...
Transfer of Research Prototypes to the Commercial Visualization Systems Amira and Avizo
Amira and Avizo are professional software products for 3D visualization, geometry reconstruction, and data analysis. The software has been designed and developed at the...
In the course of the 350 million years (Lower Devonian-Upper Cretaceous) of ammonoid evolution, the iterative trend of development starting with simple to complexly...
Mathematical Modelling of Tuberculosis in Cameroon
Tuberculosis (TB) is a preventable and curable disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) that most often affects the lungs. Mtb’s infection can remain latent...
Modern fixed telecommunication networks are based on fiber-optic technology. In the context of access networks, planners speak of FTTx (fiber-to-the-x) networks, where x...
The company Förster-Technik GmbH Engen sells immunoassay-based measurement devices for the detection of progesterone in milk. These devices must be calibrated regularly...
The goal of this project is design of pain relief drugs (opioids), which should be active only in inflamed tissue and therefore have reduced side effects compared to...
Morning stiffness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
In addition to joint swelling and tenderness, patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) commonly experience morning symptoms of joint stiffness associated with pain that...

Image-Based Analysis of Aggregates, Bitumen, and Void Structures
The goal of this project is to develop analysis methods for high-resolution CT scans of open porous asphalt. The investigations focus on the arrangement of aggregates and...
Modelling of Substrate Specificity of Various β-Glucosidases and UDP-Glucosyltransferases Exemplarily Done with Mycotoxin-β-D-Glucosides
A great amount of bioactive matter synthesised by microorganisms or plants can not be found naturally free in our environment. Diverse enzymes arrange for a glycosidic...
Investigation of the Ergoline Epimerization Process
We investigated six chemical agents of the group of alkaloid ergotamines. All substances are derivatives of lysergic acid. This kind of alkaloid can be found in fungi...

Photochemical trans-/cis-Isomerization and Quantification of Zearalenone in Edible Oils
In cereal grains and animal feed, Zearalenone (ZEN) is one of the worldwide most common mycotoxins and, consequently, humans and animals are at risk of being exposed to...
The amount of data in the areas of image processing and genome research in biomedicine, will greatly increase in the near future - also in view of the increasing trend...
DESI - Pervasively Energy-Efficient ICT Production
Goal of the DESI project is to optimize the energy consumption of ICT production, considering both the domains of "ICT" and "Energy" in a unifying way. The operation of...
Predicting Sites of Cytochrome P450-Mediated Hydroxylation
The cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are the major enzymes involved in drug metabolism and bioactivation. The most important reaction thereby is hydroxylation of CH groups, where...
Modeling Cavity Formation in Molecularly Imprinted Polymers
The project aims at a better understanding of the mechanisms responsible for the formation of binding cavities in molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). Essential in this...
