New insights on the ripening pattern of ‘Blanquilla’ pears: A comparison between on- and off-tree ripened fruit
(Elsevier, 2019-01-05)
To better understand the key processes involved in the ripening of attached fruit, we have investigated physico-chemical and biochemical changes occurring in ‘Blanquilla’ pear during on-tree (attached ...
Potential sensitivity of pork production situations aiming at high-quality products to the use of entire male pigs as an alternative to surgical castrates
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-11-16)
The perspective of a possible ban on surgical castration of male pigs in the EU is a real challenge for pork production systems
aiming at (very) high-quality products. Information was collected from a ...
Domestic refrigerator temperatures in Spain: Assessment of its impact on the safety and shelf-life of cooked meat products
(Elsevier, 2019-07-22)

MLVA subtyping of Listeria monocytogenes isolates from meat products and meat processing plants
(2017-12-22)
Listeria monocytogenes is widely distributed in meat products and the meat-processing industry thus posing a risk to consumers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the suitability of the multilocus ...
Evaluation of potential nirs to predict pastures nutritive value
(Springer, 2013-05-22)
This paper describes the capability of near infra-reflectance (NIRS) to predict the nutritional quality of pastures
from southern Chile (39°-40°S). A Fourier transformed near-infrared (FT-NIR) method ...
