Comparison of selection methods for the establishment of a core collection using SSR markers for hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) accessions from European germplasm repositories
(Springer, 2021-11-19)
Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is one of the most important tree nut crops in Europe. Germplasm accessions are conserved in ex situ repositories, located in countries where hazelnut production occurs. ...
Effects of a high-fat-diet supplemented with probiotics and ω3-fatty acids on appetite regulatory neuropeptides and neurotransmitters in a pig model
(Wageningen Academic Publishers, 2020-07-28)
The pig is a valuable animal model to study obesity in humans due to the physiological similarity between humans and pigs in terms of digestive and associated metabolic processes. The dietary use of ...
Linking sensory and proton transfer reaction–mass spectrometry analyses for the assessment of melon fruit (Cucumis melo L.) quality traits
(Springer, 2020-05-05)
Sixty-seven samples of ten melon types (Cucumis melo L.) were evaluated to determine the relationship between their quality traits: sensory attributes, pH, soluble solids, and volatile organic compounds. ...
Consumer liking of M. longissimus lumborum from New Zealand pasture-finished lamb is influenced by intramuscular fat
(Elsevier, 2020-11-22)
Palatability of meat is known to be affected by intramuscular fat (IMF), but the effect in relatively low-fat New Zealand lamb is unknown. This study evaluated the eating quality of 108 loins (M. ...
Establishing the Tolerability to Turkeys of Nonanoic Acid at Practical Levels of Use as a Feed Flavoring
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2021-07-25)
Objective: Nonanoic acid (NA) is one of a series of straight-chain aliphatic alcohols, aldehydes, acids and their derivatives with a well-documented history of use as a synthetic flavoring in human food. ...
CD36 gene polymorphism -31118 G > A (rs1761667) is associated with overweight and obesity but not with fat preferences in Mexican children
(Hogrefe, 2020-05-18)
CD36 glycoprotein is a candidate receptor involved in the gustatory detection of lipids and emerging evidence has suggested that genetic variations in CD36 may modulate the oral perception threshold to ...
Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of ginseng extract, ferulic acid, and noni juice: Evaluation of their potential to be incorporated in food
(Wiley, 2021-10-06)
Ginseng extract (GE), ferulic acid (≥99%) (FA), and a fermented noni juice powder (FNJP), were investigated for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities in vitro. Half inhibitory concentration ...
Effect of ultrasound processing on the bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity of selected vegetables
(Springer, 2019-05-09)
Ultrasound processing can result in cell wall disruption, facilitating the release of the cellular content. Therefore, we hypothesized that sonication of vegetables could be used as a pre-treatment to ...
Effects of steaming on contaminants of emerging concern levels in seafood
(Elsevier, 2018-05-19)
Seafood consumption is a major route for human exposure to environmental contaminants of emerging concern (CeCs). However, toxicological information about the presence of CeCs in seafood is still ...
Dietary silage supplement modifies fatty acid composition and boar taint in pork fat
(The Journal of National Research Institute of Animal Production, 2021-11-20)
In organic pig husbandry, the use of roughage is mandatory as dietary supplement. This study investigated the effects of oat silage on the fatty acid composition, in entire males and gilts, as well as ...
