Master Thesis on the topic: „Investigation of technologically functional properties of black soldier fly protein” |
The project deal with the black soldier fly proteins' techno-functional qualities for their significance for food composition and ingredient replacement. The solubility, emulsification capacity and stability, foamability, gel formation, water-holding capacity, and oil-holding capacity of black soldier fly proteins will be investigated for their technological functionalities. The understanding of the techno-functional properties of the black soldier fly is important to promote their incorporation into a wide range of food and feed product.
We offer a multi-facetted and demanding range of work in an institute that is growing strongly as well as the possibility of assuming responsibility right from the outset. The DIL is a highly attractive employer as it offers working in a diversified team, numerous possibilities for personal development, integration of the institute in national and international networks and a good working atmosphere. More information can be found on www.dil-ev.de.
Envisaged job starting date: from March/April 2023
Application deadline: 20.02.2023
Applications should be sent by Email (in English or German) and should include:
CV, Motivation letter describing your goals, skills, and previous experience, study program and regulations, full contact details of at least one reference person and all other relevant information (working experience, volunteering, additional courses, reference letters etc.).

Master thesis on the topic: „Dynamics of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) bioconversion system on catering and abattoir waste and their mixture” |
The project deal with the evaluation of the growth of black soldier fly larvae on catering, abattoir wastes and their mixture. Substrate factors that influence treatment efficacy and larval growth will be identified using principal component analysis (FCR, bioconversion, larval dry matter, larval biomass development, development time, survival rate etc), protein and fat development in larval body, as well as microbiological analysis for feed safety of insect meal.
The understand of black soldier fly larval development on the animal origin organic wastes and insect meal safety in feed and food is important to promote their incorporation in wide range of food and feed product

Doctoral student/ PhD student (m/f/d) in the Research Project: Reduction of Listeria monocytogenes in meat products by combination of bacteriophages and high pressure. |
Contamination of cooked and raw fermented meat products with the bacterial food pathogen Listeria monocytogenes continues to lead to product recalls and poses the risk of life-threatening infections. The combination of lytic bacteriophages and mild high pressure to inactivate the pathogen is intended to further reduce the risk of L. monocytogenes occurrence. In the project, a window for the high-pressure treatment will be determined that, together with bacteriophage treatment, allows significant inactivation of the Listeria without significantly affecting the sensory quality of the meat products. Considering the treatment sequence, possible synergistic effects will also be investigated.
