The standard method for the determination of volatile organic compounds (VOC) is the sampling onto Tenax-tubes followed by thermal desorption (TDS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. The EU-LCI list includes some very volatile organic compounds (VVOC) and some VOC for which there are limitations when using the standard method. For VVOC additional sampling is required using stronger absorbers like Carbotrap or multi-bed adsorption tubes. The analysis of VVOC also requires a different GC oven program and a different column for the separation. For the determination of formaldehyde and other low boiling aldehydes (e.g. acetaldehyde, acetone, propanal, propenal) DNPH-cartridges are used which are extracted with acetonitrile followed by liquid chromatography (HPLC-UV) analysis. The derivatisation of propenal and other unsaturated aldehydes (e.g. 2-butenal) with DNPH might lead to lower findings due to incomplete derivatization and forming of by-products. For a better quantification of acetic acid the use of ion chromatography (IC) is recommended because the analysis of acetic acid with the standard method (TDS) leads to lower findings due to break through during sampling. The use of ion chromatography for the analysis of organic acids requires a third sampling technique. The acids are adsorbed onto silica-gel and extracted with water.

Regarding the predicted decrease of gypsum supply in Germany, particularly the recycling of gypsum (calcium sulfate) is of growing importance. Currently, the gypsum demand is fulfilled (at least 60%) by gypsum as side product from coal-fired power plants (FGD Gypsum). Germany’s natural gypsum deposits fulfil the remaining gypsum demand. Due to national climate protection goals the gypsum supply from coal power plants will decrease significantly in the future. In addition, the content of sulfates in other secondary building materials, in particular in recycled concrete aggregates, should be minimized for quality reasons. Separated gypsum can be used in gypsum production if the high quality requirements for recycled gypsum are met. Accordingly, there have been significant advancements in the processing of gypsum residues in the last years. Since almost all processing steps in the recycling process are associated with environmental impacts, an evironmental evaluation of the use of recycled gypsum as a substitute in gypsum production has to be carefully conducted. The presentation focusses on the techniques for generating recycled gypsum from gypsum plaster boards, the related quality requirements and a comprehensive environmental evaluation of the complete process.

To investigate this effect, we performed a pot experiment with three different P-fertilizers and ammonium nitrate sulfate as a co-fertilizer, without and with a nitrification inhibitor (NI), and analyzed the form of nitrogen (N) in the soil via novel X-ray spectroscopic method. The application of NI with the N fertilizer led to a higher dry matter yield of maize. Novel N K-edge micro-X-ray absorption near-edge structure (micro-XANES) spectroscopy identified that the application of a NI promotes the temporary formation of a non-exchangeable N in detectable hot-spots in the soil. The subsequent slow release and prolonged availability of N during plant growth leads to higher yield. It can be concluded that NIs lead to a temporary fixation of ammonium-N in a pool that can be accessed by plant roots. Those types of available nutrient pools meet the idea of so-called “next generation fertilizers” as plants have access to nutrients according to their current demand.

A1 - Adam, Christian T1 - Specification of bioavailable nutrients and pollutants in the environment by combining DGT and spectroscopic techniques N2 - Previous research shows that analytical methods based on Diffusive Gradients in Thin films (DGT) provide very good correlations to the amount of bioavailable nutrients and pollutants in the environmental samples. However, these DGT results do not identify which compound of the specific element has the high bioavailability. Using various spectroscopic techniques (infrared, XANES and NMR spectroscopy) to analyze the dried DGT binding layers after deployment could allow us to determine the specific elements or compounds. Nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen are often, together with other elements, present as molecules in the environment. These ions are detectable and distinguishable by infrared and NMR spectroscopy, respectively. In addition, XANES spectroscopy allows for the specification of nutrients and pollutants (e.g. chromium) on the DGT binding layer. Furthermore, microspectroscopic techniques make it also possible to analyze compounds on the DGT binding layer with a lateral resolution down to 5 µm2. Therefore, species of elements and compounds of e.g. a spatial soil segment can be mapped and analyzed, providing valuable insight to understand the dynamics of nutrients and pollutants in the environment. Here we will present the advantages and limitations of this novel combination of techniques.

A1 - Hoffmann, Marie A1 - Adam, Christian T1 - Determination of chromium(VI) in phosphorus fertilizers made from recycled materials by DGT N2 - Phosphorus (P) fertilizers from secondary resources became increasingly important in the last years. However, these novel P-fertilizer can also contain toxic pollutants e.g. chromium (Cr) in the hexavalent state (Cr(VI)), which is regulated with low limit values in agricultural products (German fertilizer ordinance limit: 2 mg/kg Cr(VI)). The determination of Cr(VI) in these novel fertilizer matrices can be hampered by redox processes that lead to false results with the standard wet chemical extraction method (German norm DIN EN 15192). Therefore, we analyzed Cr(VI) in various P-fertilizers with the DGT technique. DGT devices equipped with a APA (polyacrylamide) diffusion layer and Cr(VI) selective N-methyl-D-glucamine (NMDG) binding layer were used for the study. After a 24 h conditioning period of the fertilizer at 60% of the water holding capacity (WHC), the fertilizers were brought to 100% WHC, transferred onto the DGT devices and deployed for 24 h at 25°C. The extraction of Cr from the DGT binding layer was carried out with 1 M HNO3 for 24 h. The Cr-concentrations of the extract were determined by means of ICP-MS. We found a good correlation between the standard wet chemical extraction and the DGT method for the whole range of P-fertilizers. However, partly soluble Cr(VI) compounds cannot be detected in full extent by the DGT method that is best suited for mobile Cr(VI). Furthermore, Cr K-edge XANES spectroscopy showed that the Cr(VI)-selective DGT binding layer also adsorbs mobile Cr(III) compounds from acid treatment of phosphates which can therefore cause an overestimation of Cr(VI). The DGT method was very sensitive and in most cases selective for the analysis of Cr(VI) in P-fertilizers made from recycled materials. However, the results of certain types of P-fertilizers containing mobile Cr(III) or partly immobile Cr(VI) show that still some optimization of the method is required to avoid over- or underestimation of Cr(VI).

A1 - Adam, Christian T1 - Effect of Nitrification Inhibitor on Nitrogen Forms in Soil and Phosphorus Uptake of Plants N2 - Phosphorus (P) resource availability is declining and the efficiency of applied nutrients in agricultural soils is becoming increasingly important. This is especially true for P-fertilizers from recycled materials which often have a lower plant-availability compared to commercial P-fertilizers but are expected to play an increasingly important role into the future (Kratz et al. 2019). One promising way to increase the plant-availability of the fertilizer P is a co-fertilization with specific nitrogen (N) forms which can enhance the P uptake and make P-fertilizers from recycled material more competitive to commercial phosphate rock-based P-fertilizers (Rahmatullah et al. 2006; Vogel et al. 2018). To investigate this effect, we performed a pot experiment with three different P-fertilizers (sewage sludge-based, phosphate rock and triple superphosphate) and ammonium nitrate sulfate as a co-fertilizer, without and with a nitrification inhibitor (NI), and analyzed the form of N and P in soil via a suite of chemical and novel X-ray spectroscopic methods. The application of NI with the P and N fertilizers led to a higher dry matter yield and a higher P uptake of maize. Novel N K-edge micro-X-ray absorption near-edge structure (micro-XANES) spectroscopy identified that the application of a NI promotes the temporary formation of a non-exchangeable N in detectable hot-spots in the soil. The subsequent slow release and prolonged availability of N during plant growth leads to higher yield and nutrient uptake. It can be concluded that NIs lead to a temporary fixation of ammonium-N in a pool that can be accessed by plant roots.

Ectoine possesses protecting properties and stabilizes proteins as well as whole cells against stresses like ionizing radiation and cytotoxins. These properties make ectoine a highly demanded ingredient in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. To date H. elongata is the industrial Producer strain of ectoine, but several metabolic factors for optimum ectoine production remain to be explored. In this work, we used up to date Metabolic engineering approaches following the ‘Push, Pull, Block – strategy’ to examine targets that contribute to ectoine synthesis. Firstly, the basics of glucose catabolism were inspected to PUSH and enhance carbon flow towards ectoine synthesis. Secondly, lysine biosynthesis was targeted to BLOCK a pathway that is competing for precursors with ectoine synthesis. Thirdly, the mechanosensitive (MS) channels of H. elongata have been examined as possible excretion routes for ectoine. An overexpression of the ectoine excretion channels potentially could PULL out product at the end of ectoine synthesis and increase overall ectoine flux. For the interrogation of central metabolic pathways, we established the new molecular tool CRISPR-mediated interference (CRISPRi) for targeted modulation of gene expression. PUSH Glucose catabolism through the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) and Emden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) pathway was targeted with CRISPRi and examined on gene expression level for ist response to changing salinity and different carbon sources. Changing salinity did not influence gene expression levels of glucose catabolism but the carbon source glucose triggered glycolysis through the (ED) pathway. When gene expression of the ED pathway was downregulated with CRISPRi, the growth rates remained constant. The observations indicate a metabolic overflow mechanism for glycolysis, in which fluxes are constantly high - even at lower salinity when no resources are demanded for ectoine synthesis. The further analysis of glucose to product conversion rates will advise optimum conditions for future industrial cultivation processes. BLOCK Lysine biosynthesis was downregulated with CRISPRi, which led to a significant increase in ectoine production. Hence, the blockage of lysine biosynthesis would be a valuable strategy for the optimization of the industrial producer strain in future studies. PULL MS channels and ectoine regulation are inevitably connected in osmoadaptation. Therefore, ectoine excretion, growth performance and gene expression levels of the MS channels were monitored in steady state conditions and in response to osmotic shock in the wildtype strain and in a MS channel deletion mutant. We observed that the MS channels were essential for the survival of osmotic shock but surprisingly their presence reduced cell growth under high salinity. The MS channels were only partially responsible for ectoine excretion. Thus, alternative ectoine excretion channels must exist and remain to be explored.

T1 - EDX-Analysis on medieval glasses and innovative protection of stained glass panels N2 - The church of Koszewko (Poland) is a brick building edified in the 15th century built on cobblestone foundations. There are five windows in the sanctuary. Three of them enclose heraldic panels from the Küssow’s family from the 15th century which are surrounded with Goethe glass from the 18th century to complete the windows. The colored heraldic panels are strongly damaged and corroded with massive paint layer losses, glass- and leadbreakages. Those medieval glass fragments have been shortly discovered and are of particular interest for Poland since only few medieval glazing have been conserved. The damages as well as the glass compositions have been investigated with ESEM/EDX. Two categories of medieval glass compositions have been identified. The blue glass is particularly sensible to corrosion because of his high content in K2O. The colorless and the red glass samples belong to a stable glass type. Due to the thickness of the gel layer, it is easy to see that the degradation is strongly proceeded. The protection of those medieval stained-glass panels is absolute necessary. The medieval panels have been restored and surrounded from a copper frame. Then they have been fixed on the wood frame in the church. The exterior glazing has been closed with a panel of Goethe glass. The gap between the Goethe- and the medieval glass is about 3 cm. The Goethe glass panel has been stabilized with a film based on polyester to protect the medieval glasses against any damages. In this way, a low cost protective glazing has been installed for a long-term conservation of each medieval stained-glass panels. The climate measurements over the period of one year on the restored windows are in process. The temperature and the relative humidity are recorded in the church interior, in the gap between the original and the Goethe glass and outdoors.

T1 - Thermoresponsive Amphiphilic Functionalization of Thermally Reduced Graphene Oxide to Study Graphene/Bacteria Hydrophobic Interactions N2 - An understanding of the interactions of 2D nanomaterials with pathogens is of vital importance to developing and controlling their antimicrobial properties. In this work, the interaction of functionalized graphene with tunable hydrophobicity and bacteria is investigated. Poly-(ethylene glycol)-block-(poly-N-isopropylacrylamide) copolymer (PEG-b-PNIPAM) with the triazine joint point was attached to the graphene Surface by a nitrene [2 + 1] cycloaddition reaction. By thermally switching between hydrophobic and hydrophilic states, functionalized graphene sheets were able to bind to bacteria. Bacteria were eventually disrupted when the functionality was switched to the hydrophobic state. On the basis of measuring the different microscopy methods and a live/dead viability assay, it was found that Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria are more susceptible to hydrophobic interactions than B. cereus bacteria, under the same conditions. Our investigations confirm that hydrophobic interaction is one of the main driving forces at the presented graphene/bacteria interfaces and promotes the antibacterial activity of graphene derivatives significantly.

A1 - Stege, H. A1 - Hahn, Oliver T1 - Non-invasive Identifizierung von Pigmenten in modernen Hinterglasbildern (1905-1955) - Highlights aus der Hinterglasforschung N2 - Im Rahmen des Projektes „Hinterglasmalerei als Technik der Klassischen Moderne von 1905 – 1955“, welches vom Museum Penzberg – Sammlung Campendonk, Penzberg (Gisela Geiger und Diana Oesterle) geleitet wurde und in Zusammenarbeit mit der freischaffenden Restauratorin Simone Bretz, der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) und dem Doerner Institut erfolgte, konnte im Rahmen einer Promotion erstmals ein Konvolut von mehr als 60 Hinterglasbildern mit nicht-invasiven Analysemethoden untersucht werden. Die eingesetzten Verfahren ermöglichten die Identifizierung der Pigmente und eine Klassifizierung der verwendeten Bindemittel. Die materialwissenschaftliche Beschäftigung mit der Hinterglaskunst in ihrer Vielfalt ist ein relativ junges Forschungsfeld. Lange wurde ihr mit Unkenntnis, Missverständnis und sogar Geringschätzung begegnet. Im kunsthistorischen Kontext wurde diese Art der Kaltmalerei zumeist mit dem Begriff der Glasmalerei belegt und nicht als eigenständige Kunstform anerkannt, da in beiden Fällen Glas als Bildträger seinen Einsatz findet. In der Hinterglasmalerei wird die Tafelrückseite mit organisch gebundenen Malfarben verziert und das Werk ausschließlich bei auffallendem Licht betrachtet. Die künstlerische Herausforderung liegt immer in der technischen Notwendigkeit eines umgekehrten Malvorganges: die oberste, durch das Glas sichtbare Schicht muss zuerst auf den Bildträger Glas aufgetragen werden, der optische Hintergrund wird zuletzt aufgebracht. Im Vergleich zum Tafelbild, bei dem die Malerei erst durch den Firnisauftrag Tiefenlicht erhält, entfalten die Farben in der Hinterglasmalerei bereits beim Malen ihre Intensität und erhalten gleichzeitig Schutz durch den gläsernen Bildträger (Bretz et al. 2016). Neben der kunstgeschichtlichen und kunsttechnologischen Bearbeitung der Hinterglasbilder spielten materialwissenschaftliche Untersuchungen an einer Auswahl von 66 Bildern im Rahmen des von der VolkswagenStiftung finanzierten Forschungsprojektes eine zentrale Rolle. Grundsätzlich wurde ein nicht-invasiver Ansatz gewählt, um die fragilen Kunstwerke in-situ zu messen und somit einen Transport zu vermeiden. Die Methodik umfasst neben VIS-Spektrometrie in Reflexion und energiedispersiver Röntgenfluoreszenzanalyse (RFA) auch Infrarotspektroskopie in diffuser Reflexion (DRIFTS) und Raman-Spektroskopie. Mit Hilfe des gewählten methodischen Ansatzes lassen sich sowohl anorganische als auch organische Pigmente identifizieren und die Zusammensetzung von Metallfarben und Folien sowie die Glaszusammensetzung qualitativ bestimmen. Ferner ermöglicht die DRIFT-Spektroskopie eine Klassifizierung der Bindemittel. Die im Rahmen des Forschungsprojektes analysierten Hinterglasbilder können folgendermaßen chronologisch gruppiert werden: 1910-1919 (17 Bilder), 1920-1929 (18 Bilder), 1930-1939 (6 Bilder), 1940-1949 (7 Bilder), 1950-1955 (13 Bilder) und >1955 (5 Bilder). Die Auswertung der Ergebnisse ermöglicht grundsätzliche Aussagen über die verwendeten Malmaterialien in Hinterglasbildern in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts und zeigt Änderungen der verwendeten Pigmente im zeitlichen Kontext auf. Während der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts kamen viele neue Pigmente und Malmaterialien auf den Markt, wobei speziell die synthetischen organischen Pigmente (SOP) zu nennen sind. Eine Vielzahl an SOP konnte in Hinterglasbildern aus allen Zeitgruppen identifiziert werden, wobei hier vor allem Farblacke aus synthetischem Alizarin (PR83), Vertreter der roten und orangen β-Naphthol Pigmente [(z.B. PR3, PR4, PO5 (in Nächtliche Fahrt, 1921 von L. Hildebrandt nachgewiesen)], die blauen und grünen Kupferphthalocyanine [z.B. PG7, PB15 (taucht ab 1949 in Hinterglasbildern auf)] und einige gelbe Azopigmente [z.B. PY1, PY3, PY12 (in Geneigter Mädchenkopf, 1941 von Oskar Schlemmer gefunden)] aufzuführen sind (Steger et al. 2018; Steger et al. 2019a). Einige seltene SOP der Triarylcarboniumgruppe konnten ebenso nachgewiesen werden. Darunter fallen neben der Identifizierung von PR81 (Ohne Titel, 1954, M. Uhlenhuth) auch die erstmaligen Nachweise von PV2 (Hahn, um 1945, L.-G. Buchheim) und PG1 (Exzellente und einmalige Dressuren, 1945/46, L.-G. Buchheim) in Kunstwerken überhaupt (Steger et al. 2018; Steger et al. 2019a). Ferner konnten mit PB52 aus der Gruppe der Anthrachinone und PR60 aus der Gruppe der verlackten Naphthalin-Sulfonsäure-Pigmente weitere seltene SOP in den Bildern Rudern (um 1912) beziehungsweise Apokalyptischer Reiter II (1914) von Wassily Kandinsky nachgewiesen werden (Steger et al. 2019b). Neben den Entwicklungen der SOP können auch eindeutige Trends in den anorganischen Pigmenten veranschaulicht werden. Seltene anorganische Pigmente wie zum Beispiel Strontiumweiß (SrSO4) in der Kreuzabnahme (1914/15) von Carlo Mense (Steger et al. 2019c) wurden identifiziert. Neu entwickelte anorganische Pigmente wie zum Beispiel Cadmiumrot (Cd(S,Se); ab 1928 in 11 Hinterglasbildern nachgewiesen) oder Titanweiß (TiO2; Anatas kommt ab 1922 vor, Rutil konnte nur in Kissen der Träume, 1976 von Werner Schriefers identifiziert werden) tauchen in einigen Hinterglasbildern auf. Schweinfurter Grün (3Cu(AsO2)2·Cu(CH3COO)2) oder Strontiumgelb (SrCrO4) wurden in einigen Bildern bis etwa um 1925 gefunden; diese Pigmente konnten dagegen in späteren Bildern nicht mehr nachgewiesen werden. Als Beispiel sind hier vier frühe Hinterglasbilder (1909–1914) von Wassily Kandinsky zu nennen, wobei Strontiumgelb in vielen Bildpartien zu finden war (Steger et al. 2019b). Publizierte materialwissenschaftliche Ergebnisse von Kandinskys Leinwandgemälden aus späteren Werksperioden zeigen, dass Strontiumgelb zu dieser Zeit vollkommen aus seiner Palette verschwunden ist und vor allem durch ein anderes Gelbpigment, nämlich Cadmiumgelb, ersetzt wurde (McMillan et al. 2013). Eine materialtechnische Besonderheit in der Hinterglaskunst ist die Verwendung von Metallfolien und Metalleffektpigmenten. Metallfolien aus Silber, Zinn, Aluminium oder Messing wurden vielfach als künstlerisches Element in die Komposition integriert, wobei sie als finale Schicht auf, die bereits gestaltete, leicht transparente Malerei geklebt wurden. Durch die Betrachtung im auffallenden Licht erzeugten die Folien bemerkenswerte Glitzereffekte. Zinn- und Aluminiumfolien wurden zum Beispiel in Rudern (um 1912, W. Kandinsky) nachgewiesen, während Messingfolien häufig in Bildern von L.-G. Buchheim gefunden wurden. Die Zinnfolien wurden im 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert für Verpackungszwecke (z.B. Zigaretten, Schokolade) verwendet. Aluminiumfolie wurde erst ab 1910 industriell in der Schweiz hergestellt und zu Beginn vor allem für Schokoladenverpackungen eingesetzt (Skrabec 2016). Die frühe Verwendung solche Folien in Hinterglasbildern (z.B. Rudern, um 1912) zeigen eine rasche Verbreitung dieses Materials bei den Künstlern an. Unter Metalleffektpigmenten versteht man feingemahlene Pulver aus Metall (z.B. Zinn, Nickel, Kupfer) und Legierungen (z.B. Messing, Neusilber) mit unterschiedlichen Tönungen, welche bei seitlichem Lichteinfall auf Hinterglasbildern ein merkbares Funkeln erzeugen. Solche Metalleffektpigmente wurden vielfach bei Werken von Heinrich Campendonk nachgewiesen (Geiger und Bretz 2017) und konnten in allen chronologischen Gruppen gefunden werden. Grundsätzlich ermöglichen die Ergebnisse ein besseres Verständnis für die Technik der Hinterglasmalerei und helfen insbesondere, diese eigenständige Kunst im Hinblick auf die „klassische“ Tafel- bzw. Leinwandmalerei abzugrenzen. So zeigen Vergleiche mit Gemälden auf Leinwand von Wassily Kandinsky deutliche Unterschiede in den verwendeten Farbmitteln für beide Techniken. Die Anzahl von 66 gemessenen Hinterglasbildern von 39 Künstlern erscheint im Kontext von über 1200 Arbeiten, welche im Rahmen des Projektes lokalisiert werden konnten, gering. Allerdings können die durchgeführten Untersuchungen als Startpunkt für zukünftige Projekte in diesem Forschungsfeld, beispielsweise für einzelne Werkkomplexe verstanden werden. Die Forschungsergebnisse werden auf die Webseite www.hinterglas-klassischemoderne.de eingestellt. Im Sommer 2020 präsentiert das Museum Penzberg – Sammlung Campendonk Hinterglasbilder von 1910 bis 1960 als Abschlussausstellung des Forschungsprojektes. Die Ausstellung wird von einem ausführlichen Katalog über die fächerübergreifende Forschung begleitet. Für Herbst 2020 ist ein Hinterglas-Symposium an der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) Berlin im Rahmen eines N.i.Ke. Workshops geplant.

A1 - Hahn, Oliver T1 - A complementary spectroscopic approach for the non invasive in situ identification of synthetic organic pigments in modern reverse paintings on glass N2 - This work addresses the identification of synthetic organic pigments (SOP) in ten modern reverse paintings on glass (1912-1946) by means of an in-situ multi-analytical approach. The combination of the complimentary properties of mobile Raman spectroscopy and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) enabled the detection of sixteen SOP even in complex mixtures with inorganic compounds and binders. For the β-naphthol pigments, both Raman and DRIFTS yield appropriate results. DRIFTS was the preferred method for the detection of synthetic alizarin (PR83). Its diagnostic band pattern even allows its detection in complex mixtures with mineral pigments, binders and fillers. Raman spectroscopy yielded distinctive spectra for the triaryl carbonium pigments (PG1, PV2, PR81) and the two-yellow azo SOP (PY3, PY12), whereas DRIFT spectra were affected by extensive band overlapping. This may also occur in Raman spectra, but in less problematic amounts. Fluorescence is the major problem with Raman and it significantly hampers the SOP spectra even with the 785 nm laser. On the one hand the big spot size of DRIFTS (10 mm) limits the technique to rather large sampling areas, whereas the use of a 50× objective for in-situ Raman measurements permits a focus on small spots and aggregated SOP flakes. Moreover, “environmental” factors like temperature changes, artificial light, limited space and vibrations when people pass by need to be considered for in-situ measurements in museums. Finally, the results show the experimental use of SOP in modern reverse glass paintings. Among several rare SOP (e.g. PB52, PR81), two of them (PG1, PV2) have never been reported before in any artwork.

T1 - First insights into Chinese reverse glass paintings gained by non invasive spectroscopic analysis N2 - A non-invasive methodological approach (X-ray fluorescence (XRF), diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), Raman spectroscopy) has been carried out to identify the pigments and classify the binding media in two Chinese reverse glass paintings (The Archer, Yingying and Hongniang) from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The results reveal a combined use of traditional Chinese and imported European materials. Several pigments like cinnabar, lead white, orpiment, carbon black and copper-arsenic green (probably emerald green) were found in both paintings; red lead, artificial ultramarine blue, Prussian blue and ochre appear in at least one of the paintings. The presence of portlandite (Ca(OH)2) along calcite (CaCO3) in the fine-grained, white backing layer of Yingying and Hongniang indicates the presence of limewash. In Chinese tradition, limewash was produced from clamshells, and was then sold as clamshell white. In contrast to the Japanese pigment, Chinese clamshell white was made of finely grounded shells, which were heated over a low fire. The residue (CaO) forms portlandite (Ca(OH)2) when water is continuously added. This water-rich mixture is applied on the painting. Portlandite reacts with atmospheric CO2 during drying and forms fine-grained calcite (CaCO3) [1,2]. The identification of emerald green (The Archer) suggests an earliest manufacturing date in the 1830s [3] and promotes the sinological dating of the painting. Drying oil was classified as a binding media in most areas of both paintings. However, the orange background of The Archer yielded prominent bands of both proteinaceous and fatty binder.

In above CE model, especial attention is paid to CRMs which are economically and strategically important for the European economy, but have a high-risk associated with their supply. One of the most important element which can not be replaced and is an essential element for human nutrition, yet limited resource is phosphorus (P). An importance of issues related to sustainable P management results from EU legislation, which indicated P as a Critical Raw Material (CRM). The sustainable management of P-resources is especially important for the Baltic region. A consequence of waterborne loads passing into the sea, mainly as wastewater with a high P content is the eutrophication of the Baltic Sea environment. Due to the largest inputs of P (37%) into the Baltic Sea originate from Poland, the development of sustainable solutions aimed at more rational P management for this country is externally important.

An interesting sources of phosphorus are sewage sludge (SS) and sewage sludge ash (SSA) due to the major part of the phosphate from P rich wastewater is transferred to the sludge (approx. 90%). Despite the fact that the raw materials base is large (PURE report indicates that in 2020 the amount of sewage sludge generated in Poland will reach 180% of the dry matter of sewage sludge produced in 2010), at present recycling of phosphorus is not a commonly used practice in Poland.

Depending on the size of the contaminated site and urgency of intervention, conventional or recently introduced techniques have been used. Conventional techniques include excavation and removal for treatment of soil and contaminants, or the so-called “pump-and-treat” method, in which contaminated groundwater is removed from the ground by pumping and treated in a treatment plant on the surface. It has the advantage of using proven techniques and is easy to control, and the treated groundwater can be reinjected into the ground or discharged in rivers or lakes. Novel methods include permeable reactive barriers, biomineralization, and electrokinetic remediation.

T1 - Antimon in Rostaschen aus der Müllverbrennung – Auslaugverhalten und Rückschlüsse für die Aufbereitung N2 - Antimon (Sb) wird industriell vorwiegend als Flammschutzmittel in Kunststoffen verwendet. Am Ende des Lebenszyklus landet etwa die Hälfte des produzierten Sb, vorwiegend über entsprechend dotierte Kunststoffe, in Haus- und vor allem Industrieabfällen und in der Folge auch in relevanten Mengen in Rostaschen aus der Verbrennung dieser Abfälle. Zwar werden in den Produkten Sb-Verbindungen in der Oxidationsstufe 3 eingesetzt, in den Aschen liegt Sb jedoch wegen der leichten Oxidierbarkeit überwiegend in der Oxidationsstufe 5 als Oxyanion vor (Sb(OH)6- oder Sb2O74-). Die Freisetzung beim Kontakt mit Wasser ist zunächst gering, weil die Antimonate schwerlösliche Verbindungen mit Ca2+ bilden. Durch die Carbonatisierung der Aschen während der vorgeschalteten Lagerung sinkt der pH-Wert im Eluat. Die Konzentration von Ca im Eluat nimmt mit fortschreitender Elutionsdauer ab, wodurch sich das Lösungsgleichgewicht verschiebt und Antimonate gelöst werden können. Dieses Verhalten wird durch einen Langzeitversuch mit Lysimetern bestätigt. Experimentelle Daten aus unterschiedlichen Elutionstests wurden mit dem Solver-Modul in MS Excel gefittet. Daraus ergibt sich Ca(Sb(OH)6)2xCa0.78(OH)1.56 als mögliche Verbindung für in Rostaschen enthaltenes Ca-Antimonat. Laut Entwurf der MantelVO ist für Sb in Rostaschen eine Regulierung vorgesehen. Die darin vorgesehenen Grenzwerte könnten ein Problem für Rostaschen darstellen und gefährden die Verwertung der mineralischen Fraktion. In den meisten Bundesländern geschieht der Vollzug derzeit nach dem LAGA Merkblatt M20. Die darin festgelegten Parameter zur Bewertung berücksichtigen im Prinzip nur eine Richtung, bei der sich die Materialeigenschaften im Zuge der Alterung von Rostaschen verbessern. Dieser Zusammenhang ist bei Sb nicht gegeben, was bei der Beurteilung des Gefahrenpotentials aber Berücksichtigung finden sollte. Das entgegengesetzte Verhalten von Sb stellt Aufbereiter und Verwerter möglicherweise vor Probleme. Die Einführung einer Ersatzbaustoffverordnung im Rahmen der MantelVO soll bundeseinheitliche Rechtssicherheit bei der Verwertung von mineralischen Recyclingmaterialien schaffen. Damit würde dann auch eine Grundlage für Investitionen in verbesserte Aufbereitungsverfahren geschaffen werden. Da im Hinblick auf Sb aus dargestellten Zusammenhängen jedoch eher das Gegenteil zu befürchten ist, besteht Forschungsbedarf, um dieses Problem zu lösen.

T1 - Auswirkungen der novellierten AbfKlärV auf die Kreislaufführung von Pflanzennährstoffen N2 - Because of the longstanding oversupply of nutrients in Germany, waste and fertilization legislation has been amended in 2017. As the new laws do still not meet the European nitrate ordinance, fertilization laws must be tightened again. In consequence, there is a rising competition for land between sewage sludge and organic fertilizers. Furthermore, the new sewage sludge ordinance (AbfKlärV) contains stricter thresholds and a ban on agricultural sewage sludge utilization for WWTPs > 50,000 p.e. from 2029. WWTPs which do not use their sludge for agriculture have to recover phosphorus from then on. However, sludges with less than 2% P content are not affected by that obligation. Every federal state of Germany must report amounts and quality of agricultural utilized sewage sludge yearly. An evaluation of raw data from 10 federal states shows that nearly 40% of both WWTPs and sewage sludge volume fall below the recovery limit of 2%. On the other hand, this means less than 30% of the P potential. In addition, there is no information whether the sludges fall reliably below the limit as required by the ordinance. This project aims to investigate this reliability by regarding the variations in the P content of sewage sludge. For this reason, samples will be taken monthly at 10 representative WWTPs over a year. Whereas phosphorus will still mostly be subject of recovery other nutrients are not affected by this. As a result, large amounts of N, K, Mg and Ca will be increasingly removed from the cycle. In 2017, WWTPs > 50,000 p.e. accounted for 30-60% of the nutrient potentials. These potentials will probably get lost to a large extent due to the fertilization ban. Many small WWTPs are also currently changing their utilization strategy from agriculture to incineration to ensure a safe disposal in future. Therefore, we can expect that even larger amounts of nutrients apart from phosphorus will be discharged from the circular economy. In comparison to the domestic sales volume of mineral fertilizers these other nutrients do only account for a very small fraction. A recovery could nevertheless replace parts of the mineral fertilizers, thus reducing environmental impacts. Energy consumption for technical nitrogen fixation is high and nutrient cycles are strongly anthropogenic influenced with diverse consequences such as eutrophication, acidification and endangered groundwater resources. Sewage sludge contains several micronutrients next to the macronutrients P, N, K, Mg, Ca and S. Because of lacking information on the actual German need for micronutrients contents and freights cannot evaluated. Moreover, former sewage sludge fertilization was probably not needs-based. It is therefore not possible to estimate a true loss in micronutrients due to the amended sewage sludge ordinance. N2 - Die landwirtschaftliche Klärschlammverwertung ist in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland seit Jahren rückläufig, hatte im Jahr 2017 jedoch noch einen Anteil von rund 18 % [20]. Diese Art der Verwertung wird kontrovers diskutiert, da der Klärschlamm im Rahmen der Abwasserreinigung eine Schadstoffsenke darstellt. In vergangenen Jahrzehnten wurden insbesondere die hohen Gehalte an Schwermetallen im Klärschlamm als kritisch für eine landwirtschaftliche Verwertung eingestuft. Diese Belastung konnte allerdings durch Absenkung der Einträge von Schmermetallen in das Abwasser signifikant gesenkt werden. Neben Schwermetallen kamen jedoch auch organische Schadstoffe wie Pharmazeutika, Kosmetika und Haushaltschemikalien in den Fokus der Diskussion über den Einsatz von Klärschlamm auf Agrarflächen. Heute geraten zunehmend weitere Inhaltsstoffe in den Fokus, deren Auswirkungen noch nicht abschließend geklärt sind, weshalb eine einheitliche Bewertung über Grenzwerte nicht darstellbar ist. Beispiele für diese neuen Stoffgruppen sind Mikroplastik, Nanopartikel, Antibiotikaresistenzen und persistente organische Spurenstoffe. Neben den angesprochenen Risiken gibt es in Deutschland Regionen mit einem stark erhöhten Nährstoffüberschuss. In der Kritik steht vor allem eine nicht ordnungsgemäße Düngung mit Stickstoff, welche mit Nitratauswaschungen in das Grundwasser einhergeht. Um diese Grundwasserbelastung zu verhindern wurde u.a. das Düngerecht erneut verschärft, was die Flächenkonkurrenz zwischen Klärschlamm und Wirtschaftsdünger weiter vergrößern wird. Auf Druck der EU-Kommission stehen zudem weitere Anpassungen im Düngerecht bevor, da die beschlossenen Änderungen aus Kommissionssicht nicht ausreichen, um die Nitratrichtlinie einzuhalten. Vor dem Hintergrund der angeführten Probleme wurde im Koalitionsvertrag der 18. Legislaturperiode (2013) festgeschrieben, „die Klärschlammausbringung zu Düngezwecken [zu] beenden und Phosphor und andere Nährstoffe zurück[zu]gewinnen“ [5]. Die novellierte AbfKlärV beinhaltet allerdings kein grundsätzliches Aufbringungsverbot und eine Rückgewinnungspflicht besteht lediglich für den Nährstoff Phosphor. Es ist davon auszugehen, dass sich die neuen Regelungen im Düngerecht und der Klärschlammverordnung massiv auf die landwirtschaftliche Verwertung von Klärschlamm und damit auf die Kreislaufwirtschaft verschiedener Nährstoffe auswirken werden. Zur Ermittlung dieser Auswirkungen wird seit Oktober 2018 im Auftrag des Umweltbundesamtes das REFOPLAN-Projekt „extraWERT“ (FKZ 3718 26 330 0) von der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) in Kooperation mit dem Institut für Siedlungswasserwirtschaft (ISA) der RWTH Aachen durchgeführt.

T1 - AEROMET - Observation of quickly changing element mass concentrations in an ambient aerosol using portable TXRF N2 - Measurements of aerosol particles are vital for enforcing EU air quality regulations to protect human health, and for research on climate change effects. Although metrics such as PM10 and PM2.5 are currently in use, the level of uncertainty of aerosol metrics is too high and the traceability is insufficient. The project AEROMET, which has been started in June 2017 aims at implementing improvements in a) the uncertainty of particle mass, size and number concentration measurements and b) in the characterization of regulated components in airborne particles. Both are demanded by existing networks within the EU as well as by global atmospheric research. On-site measurement campaigns One of the objects is the application of mobile x-ray spectroscopy techniques combined with aerosol sampling techniques for quantifying particle compositions in the field for real time analysis. During two in-field measurement campaigns in Budapest, Hungary in May 2018 and Cassino, Italy in September 2018 the size dependent mass concentrations of specific elements in ambient aerosols were monitored under dynamic conditions. Typically, airborne particles are sampled on filter substrates. During this project new sampling methods with specially designed substrate holders for an in-situ TXRF analysis were developed and applied for the first time. This approach allows a direct time and size resolved analysis without laborious digestion steps and a reduced risk of contamination. Aerosol particles were sampled in a 13-stage DLPI impactor - size range from 0,03 µm to 10 µm - which was equipped with special adapters for acrylic discs of 30 mm diameter, serving as substrates. TXRF analysis was performed on site with the transportable spectrometer S2 PICOFOX (Bruker Nano GmbH) equipped with a Mo X-ray tube and a 30 mm² Silicon Drift Detector (SDD). Excitation conditions were 50 kV, 600 µA, measurement time 1000 s. Quantification was based on internal standardization using 50 ng of Y in solution, which was pipetted into the centre of the discs prior to sampling. At moderate air pollution levels, i.e. PM10 ~ 20 µg/m³, sampling times of less than 2 hours were enough for the detection of elements in different particle size bins. The in-situ approach and the high sensitivity of TXRF enables the observation of rather quick changes in the quantity and distribution of elements in an ambient aerosol on the day of sampling, as the below example from the Cassino field campaign on 11 Sept. 2018 shows: The analysis of the morning and afternoon sampling shifts reveals the occurrence of the elements Fe, Ca and Si in different size bins as well as their significant temporal change in respective mass concentrations over the day while the distributions of several other elements in the aerosol remain unchanged. The validation of these results by backup measurements is planned.

Prior to the formation of a biofilm on a substrate, planktonic cells attach on the surface. Hence, the properties of the surface play a key role in biofilm formation and are of great importance for the development of strategies to prevent bacterial attachment and biofilm formation. This project aims at clarifying to which extent surface micro-/nanostructuring and chemical functionalization affects bacterial attachment and whether a synergistic combination of the two can be used to control bacterial adhesion. To answer these questions, model surfaces with regular patterns of 5-10 micrometers in size have been prepared, which provide distinct zones differing in terms of their chemistry or nano-roughness. This was achieved by micro contact printing of self-assembled monolayers with different functional groups and deposition of patterned ZnO nanorod arrays for studying the effect of surface chemistry and morphology, respectively. Typical contrasts studied were combinations of positively/negatively charged, hydrophobic/hydrophilic or flat/rough. The attachment behavior of bacteria on tailored surfaces were studied in a flow chamber as a function of time. The strain Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 was chosen as a model organism. DNA-intercalating dyes such as Syto9 have a high affinity to adsorb on ZnO nanorods. To overcome this limitation a genetic modification was performed by introducing a gene which expresses a green fluorescent protein in P. fluorescens SBW25 enabling the quantitative evaluation of the flow chamber studies by means of fluorescence microscopy. Further analysis of the attachment behavior was performed by means of scanning electron microscopy. The presentation will summarize the results of our systematic study on the role of individual parameters on bacterial attachment and highlight synergistic combinations, showing an inhibition or enhancing effect. As the investigations with model substrates enable a precise control of the surface parameters, this approach can be applied to different microorganisms and material systems to achieve a correlative description of bacterial adhesion on solid surfaces.

T1 - OECD Test Guidelines development for chemicals safety assessment of nanomaterials N2 - The OECD test guidelines (TGs) for testing chemicals have been widely used for regulatory purposes all over the world since the establishment of the Mutual Acceptance of Data (MAD) principle in 1984. This MAD principle ensures that, if a chemical is tested under the Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) conditions accordingly to an OECD TG, the data should be accepted in all OECD countries. The TGs have been developed, harmonized, internationally validated (round robin tests) and adopted by OECD countries to be used for the physical-chemical characterisation, fate estimation, and hazard identification for risk assessment of various chemicals. In addition to the TGs, OECD Guidance Documents (GDs) usually provide guidance on how to use TGs and how to interpret the results. These GDs do not have to be fully experimentally validated, and hence they are not under MAD, but they are based on relevant published scientific research. But are the existing TGs and the related GDs applicable and adequate for the regulatory testing of nanomaterials? In general, for nanomaterials it is accepted that most of the "endpoints" or more precisely measurement variables are applicable. However, for some endpoints new or amended TGs are needed. In addition, several GDs are needed to give more precise advice on the test performance in order to gain regulatory relevant data on nanomaterials.

Fungi actively sense the environmental light conditions to induce protective mechanisms against the light-associated stresses and to regulate development. Since fungi adapted to habitats with different light regimes, the complexities of their ‘visual’ systems and photoresponses may vary significantly. Fungi that are associated with plants experience a special light regime because the host seeks optimum light conditions for photosynthesis – and the fungus must cope with them. Moreover, fungi living under the canopy are confronted with an altered spectrum enriched for green and far-red light. Plants sense light to coordinate growth and morphogenesis: a low red:far-red ratio indicates the presence of competitors (shading by other plants) and triggers the shade avoidance response which is accompanied by increased susceptibility to nectrophic pathogens. Botrytis cinerea, the causal agent of gray mold diseases on many plant species in moderate climate zones (high humidity, temperatures around 20°C, seasons), exhibits striking photoresponses accompanied by a broad action spectrum and a high number of photoreceptors. Light is the most important factor controlling morphogenesis: it induces conidiation for disease spreading (summer cycle) and represses sclerotial development for survival and/or sexual recombination (winter cycle). In the past years, we identified several cellular components involved in photoperception and regulation of photomorphogenesis and virulence indicating that the same signaling pathways are of relevance for both processes, propagation and infection. Notably, we recognized the role of the phytochromes (red/far-red light sensors) for coordinated responses to light and elevated temperatures (photo-/thermomorphogenesis) – similar to the function of Arabidopsis PhyB. BcPHY2-like thermosensors are likely restricted to the Leotiomycetes, which include several plant pathogens of the moderate climate zones.

Biological strategies to survive excess light include protection, avoidance and active utilisation. Phototrophic organisms including cyanobacteria, green algae and plants use all three strategies. Fungi occupying phototrophic niches may profit from the surplus photosynthetic products which also obliges them to cope with the same light-induced stresses. One way of handling these stresses would be to use similar signalling pathways to sense the presence and to interact with their phototrophic partners. Obviously, the levels of adaptation and responses to light will depend on the environment as well as fungal genotype and phylogenetic position. Black fungi – a polyphyletic group – accumulate the dark pigment DHN melanin in their cell walls and often occupy light-flooded habitats from phyllosphere to rock surfaces. Here we compare two sequenced melanised fungi of different lifestyles in their response to light. The Leotiomycete Botrytis cinerea is an aggressive pathogen that primarily infects the above-ground parts of plants. It possesses large numbers of photoreceptors that respond to a broad spectrum of light. As a consequence, light controls morphogenesis in which it induces conidiation for disease spreading and represses sclerotial development for survival and/or sexual recombination. Cellular components involved in photo-perception and regulation of morphogenesis, stress responses and virulence have been identified and appear to regulate propagation, survival and infection. These include phytochromes, a group of photoreceptors which are particularly enriched in the Leotiomycetes and that mediate coordinated responses to light and elevated temperatures. Assuming that photo-regulation may be equally important for fungi that live in mutualistic relationships with phototrophs either by forming composite organisms or biofilms, we investigate the role of light in the rock-inhabiting Eurotiomycete Knufia petricola. Like other black yeasts, K. petricola grows slowly, does not form specialised reproductive structures and constitutively produces DHN melanin as well as carotenoids. Combining K. petricola with the cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme, we developed a model system for studying biofilm formation and bio-weathering. A genetic toolbox to manipulate this model system is being developed. K. petricola strain A95 possesses ten putative photoreceptors, more than found in filamentous Eurotiomycetes suggesting that light plays an important role for abiotic and biotic interactions in extremo-tolerant and symbiosis-capable fungi.

To test the hypothesis that light is an environmental cue that Ascomycota use to coordinate growth, stress responses as well as to establish pathogenic or symbiotic relationships, the photoreceptor (PR) distribution in species from different ecological niches was analysed. The genomes of black fungi from phyllosphere and exposed solid surfaces contain multiple photoreceptors (PRs). The filamentous foliar plant pathogen Botrytis cinerea (Leotiomycetes) has a highly sophisticated photosensory and signalling system that helps to avoid light and to locate susceptible hosts. Rock-inhabiting Dothideo- and Eurotiomycetes including Knufia petricola possess equal numbers of PRs along with the same set of protective pigments. This similarity between black fungi from plant and rock surfaces suggests that photoperception and photoregulation are important for fungi that avoid loss of energy and nutrients through cooperation with phototrophs.

A1 - Gorbushina, Anna T1 - Exploring the genome of the black yeast Knufia petricola N2 - Black yeasts form a polyphyletic group of Ascomycota that colonize bare surfaces like rocks, facades of buildings, and solar panels. Their protective adaptations enable an adequate response to fluctuating and diverse temperature, water and UV radiation stresses. Together with bacteria and algae they form sub-aerial biofilms (SAB) this way discoloring and weathering the surfaces they grow on. Strain A95 of Knufia petricola (Eurotiomycetes, Chaetothyriales) displays both typical yeast-like cell growth and constitutive dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) melanogenesis. Along with the cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme as photobiont, it is already used in a model system for studying SAB formation and bio-weathering. Applying the recently developed tools for the generation of deletion mutants will allow to define gene functions and to identify genes critical for abiotic and biotic interactions. We present a chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation for K. petricola A95. The genome was assembled with MaSuRCA using a hybrid assembly approach of Illumina MiSeq and PacBio SMRT sequencing data. The resulting assembly consists of 17 contigs including the complete mitochondrial genome and five complete chromosomes. It shows indication of repeat-induced point mutations (RIP). Supported by RNA sequencing data from eight different growth conditions, 10,994 genes were predicted with the BRAKER2 pipeline. Functional annotation of genes was obtained from general functional annotation databases and the fungal specific database FungiPath. Comparative analyses are in progress to identify genes specific to black yeasts, that may facilitate the survival on exposed surfaces. In sum, the genome sequence of K. petricola is a valuable resource to gain insight into the protein inventory and functional pathways of extremotolerant and symbiosis-capable fungi.

We studied phenotypic diversity and ecosystem functioning throughout different photosynthetic layers dominated by divergent microbial communities in the gradient of Lago di Cadagno. We determined genetic diversity by 16S and 18S amplicon sequencing and bulk ecosystem functioning (photosynthesis). In addition, we determined phenotypic diversity using single-cell technologies such as nanometer-scale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) correlated with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning flow-cytometry. We measured functional trait variation between individuals in 13CO2 fixation, 15NH4+ uptake, and variation in physio-morphological cell traits, such as cell size, shape, and auto-fluorescence for various pigments related to photosynthesis. We used the distances between individuals in a multidimensional trait space to derive phenotypic trait-based diversity indices, such as trait richness, trait evenness, and trait divergence. We find that phenotypic trait divergence associates with ecosystem functioning, whereas genetic diversity does not. Including activity-based, single-cell phenotypic measurements with NanoSIMS provided an additional accuracy to the trait-based diversity assessment and allowed us to formulate hypotheses on the mechanisms that shape the correlation between phenotypic diversity and eco-system function. Together, our results show that phenotypic diversity is a meaningful concept to measure microbial biodiversity and associate it with ecosystem functioning.

However, bacteria can evolve resistance to disinfectants, which in turn can confer cross-resistance to antibiotics. Additionally, clonal bacterial populations can display phenotypic heterogeneity with respect to the tolerance of antibiotic stress leading to a prolonged survival of a sub-population; this phenomenon is termed persistence. Persistence to antibiotics is an evolvable trait and can serve as a stepping stone for the evolution of genetically encoded resistance. Until now, there is a lack of systematic studies that investigate if bacterial populations establish persister subpopulations that tolerate disinfectant stress longer than most of the population. Objectives: Our objective is to investigate if persistence is a bacterial survival strategy against disinfectants. Furthermore, we investigate the mechanisms of disinfectant persistence and if persistence can evolve in the face of fluctuating exposure to disinfectants. Lastly, we test if the evolved mechanisms of disinfectant tolerance lead to disinfectant resistance and if they confer cross-tolerance and cross-resistance against antibiotics. Methods: We use time-kill assays in the presence of disinfectants and experimental evolution combined to whole-genome sequencing in the model organism E. coli. Results: We find persister sub-populations against chlorhexidine and quaternary ammonium compounds, but not to alcohols, aldehydes and oxidative compounds. We will present the relationship of mechanisms known to underlie antibiotic persister formation to the formation of persisters against disinfectants.

A1 - Adam, Christian T1 - Formation and chemical stabilisation of tricalcium-silicate during solidification from the melt of post-treated metallurgical slags N2 - Tricalcium-silicate (C3S) or Alite is the most important mineral in Portland cement. Since pure tricalcium-silicate is only stable above temperatures of 1250 °C, its decomposition has to be prevented technically by fast cooling after the sintering process. At room temperature, the decomposition velocity is very slow so that metastable tricalcium-silicate is obtained. Although the mechanisms of clinker phase formation during burning process of Portland cement in a rotary kiln were solved and improved over the years, in view of possible economic and ecological benefits current projects aim to produce clinker phases from metallurgical slags. Recent studies discovered that the mineral phase which remained after a reducing treatment and separation of formed metallic iron from molten Linz-Donawitz (LD-) slags contained about 60 wt.% Alite despite it was cooled slowly. Because the results could be verified using slags from different origins and varying cooling velocities a chemical stabilisation of the Alite can be assumed. First tests in mortars indicate that workability, hardening and solid state properties are comparable with an ordinary Portland cement. An application of the observed phenomenon in cement production requires enhanced knowledge about formation and stabilisation conditions of Alite during crystallisation from melts in contrast to the sintering reactions in conventional Portland cement production. Therefore, this study focuses on the stabilisation mechanisms of Alite in consolidating melts. Samples from different melting experiments are analysed to determine stabilising factors.

Consequently, soil microorganisms are exposed to toxic biocides even though they are not their primary targets. Soil is a large reservoir of microbial diversity and has been hypothesized to be a crucial factor for the evolution and spread of antimicrobial resistance. Currently, there is little knowledge on how biocides used to protect materials affect the evolution and spread of resistance. Thus, our aim is to investigate the risk for the evolution of biocide resistance and cross-resistance to antibiotics. In addition, we aim to elucidate the affect of biocides on the spread of resistance via horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Methods: In laboratory evolution experiments we culture selected model soil microorganism with representative biocides followed by antibiotic cross-resistance determination and genome sequencing. Moreover, we investigate if the selected biocides affect the HGT frequency of plasmids that carry resistance genes among soil microorganism and the consequences for survival of the affected populations. Results: Our initial results show only small increases of biocide resistance during serial transfers in the presence of biocides. One reason for this might be the narrow selective window for biocide resistance due to steep dose-response relationships. Furthermore, we will present results from ongoing experiments on the effects of material preservatives on HGT frequencies facilitating microbial community adaptation to stress.

We will compare the inks proposed by Maimonides, who lived in 12th-century Egypt, with the considerations of Rashi, who lived in 11th-century northern France, and see that they both advocated use of the inks commonly known and produced in their respective regions. It is Maimonides who proposes to add tannins to the soot inks, but rejects the metallic salt, both of which were practices that were well attested in contemporary Arabic recipes for making ink. In contrast, Rashi was favourable to employing the plant inks in use in contemporary Northern Europe.

We will start with a glance at the basic principles of the techniques used in the material science for determination of the elemental composition (X-ray emission) and molecular composition (FTIR & Raman). We will move then to the bench and mobile equipment commonly used in the field of cultural heritage. At the end we will choose a question to be answered and design an ideal experiment that will be modified according to the limitations dictated by on-site conditions. In the ateliers in the afternoon we will a) compare two XRF devices that differ in their spatial resolution; b) use a high resolution microscope (Keyence) to obtain a close look at writing surfaces and materials; c) we will learn to determine the type of the inks with the help of another microscope (DinoLite AD413T-12V), a usb microscope with visible, UV and NIR illumination; d) we will learn to use FTIR-ATR device for determination of the type of the writing surface; e) We will use mobile Raman device for identification of pigments.

Our studies of the Dead Sea Scrolls writing surfaces show that they can be divided roughly into three groups: leather, parchments of a light tint, and those of various shades of brown. The latter ones are invariably tanned, whereas the middle group is characterized by the presence of various inorganic salts. Some of the pale parchments, among them the Temple Scroll (11Q19), are remarkably similar to medieval European parchment. Therefore we have formulated the working theory that in the Judaea of the Hellenistic period two different parchment-making traditions existed side by side: an ‘eastern’ one (represented by the tanned parchments of Qumran, closely resembling Aramaic documents from the fifth century BC, and a ‘western’ one (represented by the untanned/lightly tanned ones similar to early Christian Greek parchments). This division has found support during our studies of the Geniza fragments, in which Babylonian and Palestinian traditions seem to follow the “eastern” and “western” technologies, respectively.

The first comprises materials that write themselves, producing script by rubbing their own material off onto the writing surface. It includes charcoal, graphite, chalk, raddle, and metal styluses. Depending on the material and consistency, these are cut or pressed to make styluses and then used for writing. The second group comprises all coloring liquids that are applied to the writing surface with a quill, pen, or printing block. It includes inks made from dye solutions (for example, tannin inks) and those made from pigment dispersions (for example, sepia, soot, and bister inks). The latter are sometimes also rubbed as pastes into letters incised into the writing surface, where they increase visual contrast. Due to the variety of recipes and the natural origin of raw materials, there is a wide range of different components and impurities in writing materials. Soluble inks (Tinten) Soluble inks are based mainly on dyes forming a water solution. Colored inks were manufactured with different plant or insect dyes (e.g. Brazil wood, kermes). To stabilize the volatile material, the dyes were mixed with a mordant (e.g., alum). Brown plant inks – best-known as blackthorn or Theophilus’ inks – are usually produced from the blackthorn bark and wine. In the early European Middle Ages, inks of this kind were widely used in the production of manuscripts in monasteries. Usually, they are light brown, so sometimes small amounts of iron sulfate were added, which led to what was called an “imperfect” iron gall ink. The difference between “classic” iron gall ink and such imperfect ink is therefore not clear: the distinction is not possible, especially with the naked eye. Dispersion inks (Tuschen) According to its generic recipe, one of the oldest black writing materials is produced by mixing soot with a binder dissolved in a small amount of water. Thus, along with soot, binders such as gum arabic (ancient Egypt) or animal glue (China) are among the main components of soot inks. From Pliny’s detailed account of the manufacture of various soot-based inks, we learn that, despite its seeming simplicity, producing pure soot of high quality was not an easy task in Antiquity. Therefore, we expect to find various detectable additives that might be indicative of the time and place of production. One such carbon ink requires the addition of copper sulfate . The experimental discovery of this ink in 1990 led to a misleading expression “metal ink” that is sometimes found in the literature. Colored dispersion inks based on pigments such as orpiment, cinnabar, or azurite have been known since Antiquity. Natural or artificially produced minerals are finely ground and dispersed in a binding medium. As in soot inks, water-soluble binders such as gum arabic or egg white were used. Iron gall ink (Eisengallustinten) Iron gall inks are a borderline case between these two groups. They are produced from four basic ingredients: galls, vitriol as the main source of iron, gum arabic as a binding media, and an aqueous medium such as wine, beer, or vinegar. By mixing gallic acid with iron sulfate, a water-soluble ferrous gallate complex is formed; this product belongs to the type “soluble inks”. Due to its solubility, the ink penetrates the writing support’s surface, making it difficult to erase. Exposure to oxygen leads to the formation of insoluble black ferric gallate pigment, i.e., “dispersion ink”. Natural vitriol consists of a varying mixture of metal sulfates. Since for ink making it was obtained from different mines and by various techniques, inks contain many other metals, like copper, aluminum, zinc, and manganese, in addition to the iron sulfate. These metals do not contribute to color formation in the ink solution, but possibly change the chemical properties of the inks.

T1 - Quantitative elemental analysis of ambient aerosol particles using portable TXRF N2 - A reliable analysis of aerosol particle is curial for enforcing EU air quality regulations to protect human health, and for research on climate change effects [1]. Although metrics such as PM10 and PM2.5 are currently in use, the level of uncertainty of aerosol metrics is too high and the traceability is insufficient. Within the AEROMET project [2] procedures are developed aiming at reducing the uncertainties of particle mass, size, and number concentration measurements including the characterization of regulated components in airborne particles. Here, we present an approach how to improve the uncertainties of the particle mass by mobile total reflection x-ray fluorescence (TXRF) analysis. The combination of TXRF and aerosols sampling techniques supported by reference-free synchrotron radiation-based XRF enables a quantitative real-time analysis of particle mass. During in-field campaigns, the procedure was tested, monitoring the size dependent mass concentrations of specific elements in ambient aerosols under dynamic conditions. This approach allows a direct time and size-resolved analysis without laborious digestion steps and a reduced risk of contamination. Aerosol particles were sampled in a 13-stage DLPI impactor on acrylic discs. TXRF analysis was performed on-site with the transportable spectrometer S2 PICOFOX (Bruker Nano GmbH). The TXRF quantification was based on internal standardization. At moderate air pollution levels (PM10 20 µg/m³) sampling times of less than 2 hours were enough to detect elements in different particle size bins. The on-site approach and the high sensitivity of TXRF enables the observation of rather quick changes in the quantity and distribution of elements in an ambient aerosol on the day of sampling. The analysis of the morning and afternoon sampling shifts reveals the occurrence of the elements Fe, Ca and Si in different size bins as well as their temporal change in respective mass concentrations over the day while the distributions of several other elements remain unchanged.

Their management is essential to protect cultural ethnological heritage and natural history collections for future generations. Pest management strategies have changed over time. Today, intensive knowledge on pest biology and overall material science are key cornerstones in IPM concepts - also for the museum environment. The important first steps for sustainable pest management are risk assessment, early pest detection and identification of pathways of infestation. These steps are followed by physical and biological means of control, which have lately gained more importance than applying biocides. Several potentially effective biological enemies of clothes moths and woodworm have been known for a long time, but their promotion for pest control in museums and historic houses is just beginning. This short review summarizes current concepts of pest life cycle interruption by applying good quarantine and very specific biological measures. The lessons learned from recent faunistic surveys, life-history studies as well as behavioral observations of parasitoids and predators of clothes moths and woodworm may supplement the pest management tool box. The need for further research in this field is addressed.

Preventive and therapeutic strategies against biofilm infections commonly involve applications of multiple antimicrobial substances: antimicrobial coatings on the implanted biomaterials in combination with systemically administered antibiotics. While this practice of combination therapy harbours the risk of developing cross-resistance, it might also provide the possibility to implement specific antimicrobial-antibiotic combinations (AACs) that can slow down the selection of antibiotic resistant strains. Hypothesis and aims: Specific AACs can exert combinatorial effects on the growth of susceptible and antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa that either suppress or increase their individual effects. Our aim is to identify AACs with antagonistic or synergistic effects on pseudomonal biofilms and to understand their impact on selection of resistant strains. Specifically, we want to identify AACs that select for and against antibiotic resistance during biofilm formation. Methodology: We screened for AACs that cause antagonistic or synergistic effects on planktonic P. aeruginosa. To study the effect of antimicrobial-antibiotic exposure on resistance selection in bacterial biofilms, we will grow resistant and sensitive strains on PDMS surfaces with and without antimicrobial coatings and expose them to antibiotics. Results: Several combinations with synergistic or antagonistic interaction on the growth rate of P. aeruginosa were detected. We observed a strong antagonism when combining the antimicrobial substance chlorhexidine with the carbapenem drug meropenem. A meropenem-resistant mutant showed a selection advantage in low concentrations of chlorhexidine combined with a sub-inhibitory concentration of meropenem over the wild-type. No antagonistic effect was observed for the same combination when E. coli was exposed to chlorhexidine and meropenem, suggesting a non-chemical basis for the observed effect on P. aeruginosa. Conclusion: Gaining a better understanding about resistance selection during biofilm formation on biomedical surfaces will enable us to mitigate against biofilm-associated antimicrobial resistance.

All studied polymer samples were exposed to a defined weathering schedule in a climate chamber in accordance to regulation EN ISO 4892-3:2006. For the determination of BDE-209 in the collected raining water the samples were prepared in accordance to a validated protocol. Before the analyses each sample was spiked with isotopically labeled BDE-209. Subsequently the samples were extracted with isooctane. The obtained extracts were concentrated, and the resulting solutions were analyzed by GC/MS. Additionally, the total bromine content was monitored for the weathered and untreated samples using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) and X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) as a non-destructive and rapid method. In general, the resulting data from the accelerated weathering will be compared to those from the natural weathering experiments. Here, the surfaces of the test pieces were analyzed by LA-ICP-MS and XRF as well. Moreover, soil bed tests were conducted in a well characterized model soil. This soil (boulder-clay, sand with 12 % loam, particle size in total 0.2-4 mm) is filled in a free-draining basin inside of an air-conditioned cellar. In this manner, TOC, water capacity and humidity are recorded parameters. To induce a leaching process from the samples by the raining water, the target water content is calculated to 8%. The actual humidity is measured by a tensiometer, assuring the duration of the raining period. A defined humidity is a fundamental parameter for a biological activity in the soil. The test polymers were placed up to the half in the soil. Microbial activity of the soil is monitored by a reference polymer (polyurethane) and should induce the release of HBCD and BDE-209 out of the test materials. These released analytes will be captured by passive samplers (silicone tubes) placed in a distinct distance to the polymer samples in the soil. The soil bed experiments are complementary to the weathering experiments due to the biological activity in the soil.

Their application in clinical l settings is an integral part of antibiotics stewardship by preventing the occurrence and spread of infections. However, improper use of disinfectants also harbours the risk for the evolution of tolerance and resistance to disinfectants, but also to antibiotics. It is therefore crucial to understand whether and how bacteria can survive chemical disinfection and which conditions facilitate the evolution of tolerance and resistance. Here, we study the heterogeneity in the response of isogenic E. coli populations exposed to different levels of commonly used disinfectants. At concentrations below the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), we find that certain disinfectants induce prolonged lag times in individual cells, a phenotype that has been associated with persistence against antibiotics. At concentrations above the MIC, we find heterogeneous killing for a range of the tested substances. Interestingly, for the three cationic surfactants that were tested, we find kill kinetics revealing the presence of a tolerant subpopulation that can withstand disinfection longer than most of the population. We will present results from an ongoing evolution experiment in which we test the potential for evolution of population-wide tolerance and resistance through intermittent exposure to lethal doses of a cationic surfactant.

N2 - The earliest known recipes for iron gall inks include four basic ingredients: oak galls – pathological growths of oak leaves; metal salts – usually referred to as vitriol; a binder such as gum Arabic; and water. The final product differs in the elemental composition due to the multitude of recipes as well as differences within the composition of the ink’s ingredients. Nowadays, based on the qualitative and semi-quantitative evaluation of X-ray fluorescence data, it is possible to distinguish inks on the basis of the so-called fingerprint model. The first goal of our study was to determine to what extent the type of XRF spectrometer affects the quality of the ink evaluation. We tested two types of spectrometers, semi-stationary machines equipped with polycapillary focusing optics and a handheld spectrometer with a diaphragm collimator and a relatively big interaction spot. The second goal was to address the issue of whether the ink composition might be affected by storage in a metal container. The presentation will discuss the role of the spectrometer type in the evaluation of a thin layer material such as ink. We have also learned that the iron-gall ink composition might depend on the type of vessel in which ink was being stored.

T1 - Infection stage and pathogen life cycle determine collective termite behaviour N2 - Social insects nesting in soil environments are in constant contact with entomopathogens and have evolved disease resistance mechanisms within a colony to prevent the occurrence and spread of infectious diseases. Among these mechanisms: mutual grooming reduces the cuticular load of pathogens, and burial of cadavers and cannibalism can prevent pathogens from replicating within the group. We explored how the rate and type of collective behavioural response is determined by stepwise infection dynamics operating at the level of the individual. Specifically, we infected the eastern subterranean termite Reticulitermes flavipes with different types of infectious particle and infection route of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae and recorded behavioural responses of nestmates to individuals at different times during the progression of infections. As expected, termites groomed conidia-exposed individuals significantly more than controls. Interestingly, grooming was significantly elevated after fungal germination than before, suggesting that pathogen growth cues act as strong stimulators of allogrooming. Conidia-exposed termites were cannibalized, but only after they became visibly ill. By contrast, termites did not groom blastospore-injected individuals more than controls at any time-point following infection. Instead, we found that blastospore-injected individuals were continually cannibalized at a low-level following injection with either viable or heat-killed blastospores, with a marked increase in cannibalism after termites injected with viable blastospores became visibly ill and were close to death. Together, these findings point to the importance of host condition as a cue for social hygienic behavior, and that the host itself appears to emit essential sickness cues that act as targets for its own sacrifice. This demonstrates that termites have independently evolved to both identify and destructively respond to sickness.

Understanding the proximal and ultimate drivers of this major evolutionary transition represents an important goal in biology. One outstanding question concerns the evolution of termite immunity, which is thought to have undergone broad-sweeping adaptations in order to enhance group-level immune protection. To understand the evolutionary origins of termite immunity, we conducted qualitative and quantitative transcriptome analyses along a gradient of sociality. Firstly, we aimed to identify large-scale genetic shifts in immune traits linked to eusociality by comparing immune gene repertoires in solitary and subsocial cockroaches and across a range of eusocial termite lineages. Secondly, we compared the responses of a solitary cockroach, a subsocial wood-roach and different castes of a lower termite species to a non-specific immune challenge, in order to understand how sociality may have influenced the evolution of immune gene regulation. Firstly, we found that termites have a broadly representative repertoire of canonical immune genes as compared to gregarious cockroaches and subsocial wood-roaches. Secondly, with respect to immune challenge, the solitary cockroach and the subsocial wood-roach displayed a similarly comprehensive induced response, while the termite response was considerably dampened by comparison and strongly influenced by caste; with reproductives displaying a generally higher constitutive level of immune-gene expression compared to sterile castes. In summary we did not find termite eusociality to be associated with significant changes in immune gene diversity, but rather to be linked with significant modifications to the regulation of immunity following the origin of division of labour.

With comparative genomics we will investigate the evolution of gene families related to immunity, try to understand where reductions and expansions take place and relate these changes to shifts in sociality and ecology. The role of TEs in expansions and contractions of immune gene families will be investigated. For these analyses, we propose to generate high quality, highly contiguous genomes of species from different levels of sociality, covering all major termite families. With comparative transcriptomics we will investigate the expression of immune genes in different castes. Via network analyses we will identify pathways indicated in differential immunity between castes and between species of different sociality levels. We will investigate how these pathways have been rewired along the transitions to higher levels of sociality and how, intra-specifically, they change between castes.

However, comparatively little is known about the evolutionary origins of immunity in social insects. We tackle this by identifying immune genes from 18 cockroach and termite species, spanning a gradient of social lifestyles. Termites have undergone contractions of major immune gene families during the early origin of the group, particularly in antimicrobial effector and receptor proteins, followed by later re-expansions in some lineages. In a comparative gene expression analysis, we find that reproductive individuals of a termite invest more in innate immune regulation than other castes. When colonies encounter immune-challenged nestmates, gene expression responses are weak in reproductives but this pattern is reversed when colony members are immune-challenged individually, with reproductives eliciting a greater response to treatment than other castes. Finally, responses to immune challenge were more comprehensive in both subsocial and solitary cockroaches compared to termites, indicating a reduced overall ability to respond to infection in termites. Our study indicates that the emergence of termite sociality was associated with the evolution of a tapered yet caste-adapted immune system.

Quarantine of potentially infested objects can be logistically challenging. Anoxia under controlled Nitrogen atmosphere is a most gentle but also time-consuming method to eradicate insect pests in all kinds of different materials. Treatment results are usually affected by duration, temperature, humidity and residual oxygen content. During a two-year research project, 34 relevant pest insect species of all developmental stages were tested in different materials (wood, paper, wool) to monitor treatment success and to determine optimum treatment parameters. Duration of treatment ranged from one to three weeks at temperatures of 20–27 °C. As expected, results showed significant differences in mortality among tested species. Highest tolerance of hypoxic conditions was found in elder larvae of Hylotrupes bajulus. Although this species is an unlikely museum pest, it may serve as an overall most tolerant reference. Anobiids and other wood boring beetles are more often an issue related to cultural heritage. A combination of three weeks exposure time at maximum 0.5% residual oxygen and 24 °C, alternatively 1% residual oxygen and 27 °C are recommended for infested artefacts. Imbedding materials in general had no influence on mortality. This study was funded by Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU).

T1 - OECD Test Guideline on particle size and particle size distribution of manufactured nanomaterials: simultaneous measurement of length and diameter of fibers N2 - The new OECD test guideline will address the following four main steps in the determination of the length and width distributions of fibers: sample preparation, image acquisition, data evaluation and uncertainty analysis. As the sample preparation has to be optimized for each material, general quality criteria will be given in the protocol. For full visibility of a fiber the appropriate resolution has to be chosen. In the data evaluation the length and diameter of each fiber will be determined concurrently to allow for application of different regulatory definitions. The quality of the results critically depends on the sample preparation as well as the data evaluation. In this step the classification rules have to be formulated and followed accurately in order to optimize reproducibility of the method. The SOP will be validated in an international round robin test, which is planned for 2018/2019.

T1 - Test Guideline on Particle Size and Size Distribution of Manufactured Nanomaterials N2 - The particle size distribution is considered the most relevant information for nanoscale property identification and material characterization. The current OECD test guideline on particle size and size distribution (TG 110) is not applicable to ‘nano-sized’ objects. In this project we thus develop a new OECD test guideline for the measurement of the size and size distribution of particles and fibers with at least one dimension in the nanoscale. A fiber is defined as an object having an aspect ratio of length/diameter l/d >3. The width and length of each fiber should be measured concurrently. In order to measure the particle size distributions, many techniques are available. 9 methods for particles and 2 methods for fibres have been tested in a prevalidation study and appropriate methods will be compared in an interlaboratory round robin test starting in February 2019.

It is used as an osmolyte helping microorganisms to maintain an osmotic equilibrium. In addition, ectoine acts as a stabilizer and protects proteins, membranes and whole cells against detrimental effects such as freezing and thawing, drying and high temperatures. Its protective effect is explained by the preferential exclusion model, which postulates that ectoine does not directly interact with biomolecules but is excluded from their surface. Interestingly, details on the interaction of ectoine with DNA are still unknown. Therefore, we studied the influence of ectoine on DNA and the mechanisms by which ectoine protects DNA against ionizing radiation. To emulate biological conditions, we used a sample holder comprising a silicon chip with a Si3N4 membrane, which allows for electron irradiation of DNA in aqueous solution. Analysis by atomic force microscopy revealed that without ectoine, DNA was damaged by irradiation with a dose of 1,7 +/-0,3 Gy. With ectoine, DNA remained undamaged, even after irradiation with 15 Gy. Simulations with dsDNA and ectoine in water revealed a preferential binding of the zwitterionic ectoine to the negatively charged DNA. According to the simulations, binding of ectoine will destabilize dsDNA. Destabilizing is probably caused by the transition of B-DNA to A-DNA and will reduce the DNA melting temperature, which was experimentally proven. The preferential binding provides a stable ectoine shell around DNA, which allows ectoine to reduce OH-radicals and electrons near the DNA and thereby mitigating the damaging effect of ionizing radiation.

A1 - Adam, Christian A1 - Vogel, Christian T1 - Düngewirkung von P-Rezyklaten N2 - Die agronomische Effizienz von Düngemitteln wird üblicherweise in Vegetationsversuchen geprüft. Diese erlauben die es, unterschiedliche Kulturpflanzen und deren Strategien der Nährstoffmobilisierung und -aneignung zu betrachten und verschiedene Substrattypen und deren Eigenschaften im Hinblick auf Nährstofffixierung und -freisetzung zu berücksichtigen. Solche Versuche, selbst wenn sie nicht im Feld, sondern nur im Gefäß durchgeführt werden, sind jedoch sowohl zeit- als auch kostenintensiv. In erster Näherung wird die Pflanzenverfügbarkeit insbesondere von Phosphor (P)-Düngemitteln daher in der Regel mit Hilfe standardisierter chemischer Extraktionsmethoden abgeschätzt, deren Durchführung in der deutschen ebenso wie in der europäischen Düngemittelverordnung normiert ist. Diese Methoden werden auch bei der staatlichen Düngemittelverkehrskontrolle genutzt, um zu überprüfen, ob die düngemittelrechtlichen Vorgaben eingehalten werden. Wie jüngere Arbeiten gezeigt haben, ist es jedoch schwierig, herkömmliche Standardextraktionsmethoden auf neue Dünger aus Recyclingmaterialien wie Klärschlamm zu übertragen. Korrelationen zwischen P-Aufnahme im Vegetationsversuch und chemischer Löslichkeit im Standardextrakt sind oft nur mäßig bis schwach oder überhaupt nicht signifikant. Die vorliegende Literaturübersicht gibt einen Überblick zum aktuellen Stand des Wissens über die chemische Löslichkeit von klärschlammbasierten P-Recyclingdüngern, deren Effizienz im Vegetationsversuch und statistische Relationen zwischen beiden Parametern. Anschließend werden alternative Methoden zur Abschätzung der P-Verfügbarkeit von Recyclingdüngern vorgestellt, die derzeit Gegenstand der wissenschaftlichen Diskussion sind.
