Effect of increasing lignin in isoenergetic diets at two soluble fibre levels on digestion, performance and carcass quality of growing rabbits
(Elsevier, 2020-01-27)
To assess the effect of increasing dietary lignin in isoenergetic diets at two soluble fibre (SF) levels on digestion, performance and carcass quality of growing rabbits, four diets were formulated ...
Hydrophobic membranes for ammonia recovery from digestates in microbial electrolysis cells: Assessment of different configurations
(Elsevier, 2021-03-01)
The combination of hydrophobic membranes and microbial electrolysis cells (MEC) was assessed in two different configurations in order to recover ammonia from anaerobically digested pig slurry. ...
In-situ methane enrichment in continuous anaerobic digestion of pig slurry by zero-valent iron nanoparticles addition under mesophilic and thermophilic conditions
(Elsevier, 2021-08-27)
The effect of zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) addition on methane production during anaerobic digestion of pig slurry was assessed. Experiments were conducted using two experimental set-ups: batch ...
Longitudinal modelling of performance and feed efficiency traits in growing Duroc pigs
(Elsevier, 2022-01-07)
In this study we used the phenotypic information of 1,499 Duroc pigs, recorded longitudinally in the age period from 110 to 200 days of age for individual daily feed intake (DFI), backfat thickness (BF) ...
Understanding consumers' perceptions towards Iberian pig production and animal welfare
(Elsevier, 2020-09-19)
The Spanish market offers a greater variety of Iberian pork products. The aim of this paper is to determine the perception of consumers of several aspects of Iberian pig production and animal welfare ...
Should Animal Welfare be Included in Educational Programs? Attitudes of Secondary and University Students from Eight EU Countries
(Routledge, 2021-08-26)
Animal Welfare (AW) educational programs aim to promote positive attitudes of future generations toward animal production systems. This study investigated whether secondary and university students in ...
Genetic variability of functional longevity in five rabbit lines
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-01-22)
The objectives of this study were to analyse the differences in the genetic determination of functional longevity in five Spanish lines of rabbits and to check how different systematic factors might ...
Validation of the fCAL turbo immunoturbidimetric assay for measurement of calprotectin in porcine and bovine fecal samples
(Elsevier, 2023-10-05)
The concentration of calprotectin in feces is a well-studied marker of gastrointestinal inflammation in humans. However, little is known about fecal calprotectin in farm animals. In this work, we have ...
Genetic analysis of functional longevity in a complete diallel crossing experiment involving four maternal rabbit lines
(Wiley, 2020-10-26)
In a diallel cross between four maternal lines of rabbits, the four maternal lines and the corresponding crossbred females (does) were evaluated concerning functional longevity, estimating their ...
Modeling microRNA-driven post-transcriptional regulation using exon–intron split analysis in pigs
(Wiley, 2022-07-10)
The contribution of microRNAs (miRNAs) to mRNA post-transcriptional regulation has often been explored by the post hoc selection of downregulated genes and determining whether they harbor binding sites ...
