Liver transcriptome profile in pigs with extreme phenotypes of intramuscular fatty acid composition
(BMC, 2012-10-11)
Background: New advances in high-throughput technologies have allowed for the massive analysis of genomic
data, providing new opportunities for the characterization of the transcriptome architectures. ...
Impact of fruit bagging and postharvest storage conditions on quality and decay of organic nectarines
(Taylor and Francis, 2022-09-08)
Abiotic factors such as light influence the physicochemical properties of fruit and may alter the response of the fruit to the environment. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of two ...
Effect of storage on total phenolics, antioxidant capacity, and physicochemical properties of blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) jam
(Wiley, 2018-05-24)
This study investigated the effects of storage on the physicochemical and nutritional aspects ofblueberry jam. Jams were stored at either 4, 25, or 358C during a 56-day period. The pH was sig-nificantly ...
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 ...
Influence of pulsed electric fields processing on the bioaccessible and non-bioaccessible fractions of apple phenolic compounds
(Elsevier, 2019-05-30)
Pulsed electric fields (PEF) are known to influence the chemical and microstructural factors governing apple phenolic compounds fate upon digestion. However, the effect of PEF on fruit phenolic compounds ...
Editorial: Quality of animal-source foods related to their production and processing conditions
(Elsevier, 2022-01-17)
The quality of a food is generally reliant on the attributes that give it the ability to satisfy the stated or implicit needs of a user. The notion of quality has become increasingly complex, especially ...
Stunning pigs with nitrogen and carbon dioxide mixtures: effects on animal welfare and meat quality
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-10-10)
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of exposure to the gas mixtures of 70% nitrogen (N2) and 30% carbon dioxide (CO2;
70N30C), 80% N2 and 20% CO2 (80N20C) and 85% N2 and 15% CO2 (85N15C) on ...
Iron, heme, and nitrosyl-heme content in Spanish meat derivatives
(Elsevier, 2023-11-15)
Heme and nitrosyl-heme have been pointed out as responsible for the association between processed meats and cancer. The objective of this study was to obtain reliable data on the current proximate ...
Marketing strategies to self-sustainability of autochthonous swine breeds from different EU regions: a mixed approach using the World Café technique and the Analytical Hierarchy Process
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-09-02)
Extensive and semi-extensive production based on local swine breeds such as Majorcan Black Pig, Cinta Senese, Gascon, Krškopolje and Turopolje is becoming extremely rare and on the verge of disappearing ...
Attitudes and beliefs of Eastern European consumers towards piglet castration and meat from castrated pigs
(Elsevier, 2019-10-19)
Castration of male piglets is a common practice to avoid boar taint but is being questioned. The present work has an exploratory character and aims to investigate the beliefs and attitudes of Eastern ...
