written exam, open and MC questions; Prof. Till and Prof. Wagner assign the same number of Points, at least 60% of correct answers (sum of both parts) to pass the exam.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Prof. Till : organic Food belongs to specific plants families . These are characterised by special secondary plant products e.g. proanthocyanidins, glucosinolates, flavonoids . To understand principal structure and biologocal activity of selectes secondary plant products and their importance for Plant Food Quality.
Prof. Wagner: To understand structure, metabolism and biological activity of secundary plant products, food lipids and dietary fibre. To understand which plant products provide which ingredianents and nutrients. To understand biomarker assessment to describe biological activity. Wihtin the lecture new research questions and results will be discussed around food quality such as quality of organic food.
