Computed tomography and predictive microbiology for non-invasive evaluation of the impact of dry-cured ham production process conditions on the behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes and Clostridium botulinum
(Elsevier, 2023-05-10)
Variability of salt content in dry-cured ham production can pose microbiological food safety issues, especially in salt reduced and/or non-nitrified products. In this regard, computed tomography (CT) ...
Maximum levels of cross-contamination for 24 antimicrobial active substances in non-target feed. Part 7: Amphenicols: florfenicol and thiamphenicol
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-10-26)
The specific concentrations of florfenicol and thiamphenicol in non-target feed for food-producing animals, below which there would not be an effect on the emergence of, and/or selection for, resistance ...
Fat Replacement by Vegetal Fibres to Improve the Quality of Sausages Elaborated with Non-Castrated Male Pork
(MDPI, 2020-10-14)
Based on the need to find alternatives for the use of meat from non-castrated male pigs that contains high levels of androstenone and skatole, the production of meat products (raw and Frankfurt sausages) ...
More than smell - COVID-19 is associated with severe impairment of smell, taste, and chemesthesis
(Oxford University Press, 2020-06-20)
Recent anecdotal and scientific reports have provided evidence of a link between COVID-19 and chemosensory impairments such as anosmia. However, these reports have downplayed or failed to distinguish ...
Recent Smell Loss Is the Best Predictor of COVID-19 Among Individuals With Recent Respiratory Symptoms
(Oxford University Press, 2020-12-25)
In a preregistered, cross-sectional study, we investigated whether olfactory loss is a reliable predictor of COVID-19 using a crowdsourced questionnaire in 23 languages to assess symptoms in individuals ...
Control of Listeria monocytogenes in chicken dry-fermented sausages with bioprotective starter culture and high-pressure processing
(Frontiers Media, 2022-09-30)
Listeria monocytogenes is one of the most relevant pathogens for ready-to-eat food, being a challenge for the food industry to comply with microbiological criteria. The aim of the work was to assess the ...
Fatty acid content and profile of round sardinella (Sardinella aurita), an expanding thermophilic species in the NW Mediterranean
(Hellenic Centre for Marine Research, 2024-06-13)
Over the past few decades, due to sea warming driven by global climate change, the habitat range of round sardinella (Sardinella aurita) has expanded into the north-western Mediterranean Sea. This study ...
Domestic refrigerator temperatures in Spain: Assessment of its impact on the safety and shelf-life of cooked meat products
(Elsevier, 2019-07-22)
Temperature is one of the main factors governing the growth of microorganisms. The aim of the present study was to provide temperature conditions representative of the food products stored in domestic ...
Assessing the Impact of Different Technological Strategies on the Fate of Salmonella in Chicken Dry-Fermented Sausages by Means of Challenge Testing and Predictive Models
(MDPI, 2023-02-08)
Salmonella is the main relevant pathogen in chicken dry-fermented sausages (DFS). The
safety of shelf-stable DFS must rely on the production process, which should not only prevent
growth but promote ...
Consumer perception of entire male pork coated with spiced edible films as a new product to mask boar taint
(Elsevier, 2023-03-28)
Pork production has undergone a shift towards the rearing of entire male pigs, however, its meat might carry with the presence of boar taint and it would be considered “unfit for human consumption”. To ...
