The goal of the StilDeTox project is to investigate, potentiate and exploit the biological activity of stilbenoid extracts to develop environmental-friendly solutions to counteract the growth of F. graminearum and A. carbonarius and the production of their mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON) and ochrat

To overcome the limitations and strengthen the existing monitoring system, INRAE is developing with other national players (IFIP, CNRS, CEA, ONIRIS, INRIA, University of Perpignan) three additional options for the rapid and cost-effective detection of chemical contaminants (objective 1): 1) The “sam

The objectives of LIPOMEC are (i) to identify factors that may be responsible for high levels of lipolysis in milk (ii) to better understand lipolysis in milk and mammary gland of ruminants (cow, goat, sheep) by an integrative biology approach (iii) to develop tools and methods to estimate and reduc

By producing protein-rich seeds without N-fertilizers, legumes can contribute to satisfying the growing demand for plant proteins for human and animal nutrition while reducing environmental impacts. PEAVALUE will target pea, one of the most important grain legume crops in Europe, which is of increas

The Sal&Mieux collaborative project gathers the expertise of 5 academic partners with the aim to evaluate and to enhance the sensory availability and perception of discretionary salt, as a function of actual consumers’ salting practices during food cooking and seasoning, in order to provide stakehol

Controlling egg quality is essential for the egg industry. Certain alterations, induced by external factors such as the hen age or egg storage conditions for example, can indeed lead to negative impacts at the health and economic levels. Current husbandry practices tend towards an increase in the pr

Non-nutritive sweeteners consumption as an alternative to high-energy food and beverages is expanding worldwide. This consumption is associated with weight gain and increased risk of type 2 diabetes and/or cardiovascular events. However, underlying mechanisms to better understand the physiological e

The PRIMOFOOD project aims to innovate in modelling the effect of food prices on household purchasing behaviour. It is in line with axis 1.5 of the AAPG2019 "Food and Food Systems". The proposed innovations will allow for a better assessment of the effectiveness and distributive effects of nutrition

Pesticides are widely used in agriculture. Although they produce high yields, they are not without consequences for the planet and human beings. Moreover, people are increasing concern by this topic. In order to protect the human health the regulation involves maximum residue limits and monitoring a

There is a growing scientific consensus around the need to significantly reduce the consumption of animal-based products. Springmann et al. (2016) estimate that food production could account for 52% of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 if nothing is done, but could decrease to only 15% if humanity ad

With deepening globalization of food markets, demand for higher quality agricultural products has been rising rapidly in Sub Saharan Africa. Yet, lack of farm-level quality recognition in domestic value chains frequently fails to give incentives to smallholder farmers to improve quality, putting the
