(Journal of Stored Products Research, 2019-11-15)Three MAs with 50%, 70% and 90% CO2 in air was tested at different exposure times on all the developmental stages of R. dominica using chickpeas packed with 4% and 96% filling ratio in which there was ... -
Suspended culture of Pinna rudis enhances survival and allows the development of a seasonal growth model for Mediterranean Pinnids
(Aquaculture, 2021-05-25)A two-year growth study of 80 Pinna rudis individuals was conducted in offshore cages in the western Mediterranean Sea. A Von Bertalanffy growth model was fitted to monthly measured data of 40 individuals ... -
Sustainability Assessment after Twenty Years of Sewage Sludge Application on Calcareous Soil Following N or P Criterion
(Sustainability, 2024-03-11)Sewage sludge is a valuable source of nutrients when applied to the soil. Research on its agricultural use has been focused on chemical parameters to prevent heavy metal buildup. However, soil quality ... -
Sustainable food packaging: An updated definition following a holistic approach
(Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023-04-21)Food packaging solutions need to be redesigned to be more sustainable, but determining which solution is ‘more optimal’ is a very difficult task when considering the entire food product value chain. ... -
Sustainable sheep production and consumer preference trends: Compatibilities, contradictions, and unresolved dilemmas
(Meat Science, 2013-05-20)There are increasing concerns of society towards the consumption of animal products which have been produced and transformed in a sustainable manner. This trend influences consumer purchasing decision ... -
Swine Dendritic Cell Response to Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus: An Update
(Frontiers in Immunology, 2021-07-28)Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells, unique to initiate and coordinate the adaptive immune response. In pigs, conventional DCs (cDCs), plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs), and ... -
Symposium review: Decomposing efficiency of milk production and maximizing profit
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2019-12-16)The dairy industry has focused on maximizing milk yield, as it is believed that this maximizes profit mainly through dilution of maintenance costs. Efficiency of milk production has received, until ... -
Syntenic relationships between cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and melon (C. melo L.) chromosomes as revealed by comparative genetic mapping
(BMC Genomics, 2011-08-05)Background: Cucumber, Cucumis sativus L. (2n = 2 × = 14) and melon, C. melo L. (2n = 2 × = 24) are two important vegetable species in the genus Cucumis (family Cucurbitaceae). Both species have an Asian ... -
Synthesis of polylactic acid initiated through biobased antioxidants: Towards intrinsically active food packaging
