(2023-02-01)The present research was performed within the scopes of the DFG Research Training Group 1703 “Resource Efficiency in Interorganizational Networks” and AiF Project GmbH (project No. 16KN065229), which aims at developing a ... -
Herstellung von Holzfaserdämmstoffen auf Laub- und Nadelholzbasis mit dem Fokus auf der Fasercharakterisierung, sowie der Ermittlung der physikalischen, mechanischen und biologischen Eigenschaften
(2022-10-19)The objective of this work was to investigate the use of hardwood fibres for the production of wood fibre insulation materials in order to provide a broader range of raw materials against the background of ecological forest ... -
Fungi for the production of new types of biomaterials
(2022-07-01)Wood-decaying saprotrophic fungi of the phylum Basidiomycota occur almost ubiquitously. Due to their ability to degrade lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose, especially white-rot fungi are among the most important destroyer ... -
Fruiting body development of Coprinopsis cinerea: Cytology and regulatory factors
(2022-04-11)Coprinopsis cinerea, the gray shagged ink-cap, is a saprotrophic edible basidiomycete that naturally grows on horse dung. Despite richness in nutrients, the typical fast autolysis of the cap of the mushroom during maturation ... -
Factors Influencing Fruiting Body Initation of Agaricomycetes
(2021-04-23)Macroscopic multicellular fruiting bodies of Agaricomycetes, commonly referred to as mushrooms, are the most complex developmental structures which exist in the kingdom of fungi. Fruiting bodies serve in production and ... -
Psilocybe cyanescens in Germany
(2018-01-17)Psilocybe cyanescens is an invasive but understudied synanthrope in Germany. The ecological and social problems connected to this potently psychoactive member of the Strophariaceae required a comprehensive study describing ... -
Entwicklung von leichten, dreischichtigen Sandwichverbundplatten unter Verwendung des Agrarrohstoffes Mais
(2016-09-20)The development of wood composites such as fibreboards or particle boards rely on the intention to improve the efficiency of the wood use and to expand the application of the material wood. The conventional wood composites ... -
Treatment of solid wood with silanes, polydimethylsiloxanes and silica sols
(2014-11-25)The study can be divided into three sections. In the first section, wood was treated with different commercially available silica sols of varying pH and surface modification. While alkaline silica sols could not be impregnated ... -
Insect olfaction as an information filter for chemo-analytical applications
(2014-04-17)The olfaction of insect species is adapted to the requirements of the specific ecosystem they are living in. Volatiles perceived by insects can transport information on the location of an oviposition place or the physiological ... -
Odour signals relevant to beetles in deadwood habitats - odorants, olfaction and behaviour.
(2012-09-26)The overall objective of this work was to evaluate and determine volatile chemical cues (infochemicals) that determine insect-wood interactions. The deadwood habitat comprises species that reproduce and spend obligatory ... -
Genetic processes in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in the Chernobyl exclusion zone
(2011-02-18)As immobile organisms, plants have to tolerate unfavorable environmental conditions and make use of different adaptive mechanisms to survive and reproduce successfully under stress. It is ... -
Isolierung von DNA aus rohem und bearbeitetem Holz von Dipterocarpaceen
(2010-12-03)Forest destruction and degradation (deforestation) remain major threats to the global biodiversity and cause enormous environmental damage in particular in tropical regions, where the highest ... -
Actions of lignocellulolytic enzymes on Abies grandis(grand fir) wood for application in biofuel production
(2010-11-02)Abies grandis is a fast growing coniferous tree with a high potential for sustainable wood production and applications in the wood product industry. However, for the possible applications ... -
Laccases and other ligninolytic enzymes of the basidiomycetes Coprinopsis cinerea and Pleurotus ostreatus
(2009-12-23)Organisms produce ligninolytic enzymes in order to degrade lignocellulosic materials. Mainly, such enzymes are found in the fungal kingdom and are particularly widespread in the phylum ... -
Light effects on fruiting body development of wildtype in comparison to light-insensitive mutant strains of the basidiomycete Coprinopsis cinerea, grazing of mites (Tyrophagus putrescentiae) on the strains and production of volatile organic compounds during fruiting body development
(2009-07-20)Coprinopsis cinerea in Thailand is a speciality mushroom (hed-cone-noi) that is grown in small family businesses on agricultural wastes, e.g. on water hyacinths and straw, and the fungi are ... -
Development of a Basic Biosensor System for Wood Degradation using Volatile Organic Compounds
(2009-05-27)Wood inspection and durability testing of wood against microorganisms, as fungi, play an important role in forestry and wood-related material industries. An efficient testing method is ... -
