Composition and properties of the polyphenolic extracts obtained from industrial plum pomaces
(Elsevier, 2014-12-10)
The polyphenol composition of purified extracts obtained from plum pomace gathered from production lines of a modern fruit transformation plant was characterized. The extraction of polyphenols from ...
A functional regulatory variant of MYH3 influences muscle fiber-type composition and intramuscular fat content in pigs
(Public Library of Science, 2019-10-11)
Muscle development and lipid accumulation in muscle critically affect meat quality of livestock. However, the genetic factors underlying myofiber-type specification and intramuscular fat (IMF) accumulation ...
Estimation of carcass composition and cut composition from computed tomography images of live growing pigs of different genotypes
(Elsevier, 2014-09-12)
The aim of the present work was (1) to study the relationship between cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) images obtained in live growing pigs of different genotypes and dissection measurements and ...
Nutritional Quality of Beef Produced in Chile from Different Production Systems
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, 2012-01)
In recent years, beef industry has improved production processes to ensure quality and certification for overseas meat
markets. However, there is limited scientific information about the nutritional ...
Finishing strategies for steers based on pasture or silage plus grain and time on feed and their effects on beef quality
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2015-04)
The aims of the present study were to compare the quality of grainfed and pasture-fed beef and to assess the effects of two feeding periods on grain for finishing steers. A group of 75 steers were fed ...
Predicting the carcass chemical composition and describing its growth in live pigs of different sexes using computed tomographys
(Elsevier, 2015-08-28)
The aims of this study were (1) to evaluate the ability of computed tomography (CT) to predict the chemical composition of live pigs and carcasses, (2) to compare the chemical composition of four different ...
Effect of production system before the finishing period on carcass, meat and fat qualities of beef
(Elsevier, 2013-08-01)
Twenty Gascon young bulls that had been reared either in intensive conditions (INT) (n = 10) with early weaning at 3 to 4 months,
or in a traditional extensive (EXT) system (n = 10) with weaning at 7 ...
Are Consumers’ Egg Preferences Influenced by Animal-Welfare Conditions and Environmental Impacts?
(MDPI, 2019-11-06)
We conducted a labelled discrete choice experiment (DCE) to assess consumers’ preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for fresh hens’ eggs produced via different production systems (caged, barn, free ...
Acetylated pectins in raw and heat processed carrots
(Elsevier, 2017-08-30)
Heat processing results in softening of carrots, changing the pectin structure. The effect of heat processing on pectin was studied, showing that the amount of pectin in water soluble solids (WSS) and ...
SNP variation in the promoter of the PRKAG3 gene and association with meat quality traits in pig
(BMC, 2012-07-25)
Background: The PRKAG3 gene encodes the γ3 subunit of adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase
(AMPK), a protein that plays a key role in energy metabolism in skeletal muscle. Non-synonymous ...
