Microscopic analysis and microstructural characterization of the organic and inorganic components of dairy fouling during the cleaning process
(American Dairy Science Association, 2020-01-13)
This study evaluated the organic residues of milk fouling using fluorescence and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The inorganic content was analyzed with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, ...
Physicochemical characterisation of restructured Fenalår and safety implications of salt and nitrite reduction
(Elsevier, 2020-07-04)
There is a new trend to produce dry-cured ham from lamb in shorter times by boning the ham before salting to later obtain restructured hams that are easier to dry and slice. However, little information ...
Consumers' expectations and liking of traditional and innovative pork products from European autochthonous pig breeds
(Elsevier, 2020-05-07)
The aim of the study was to ascertain the acceptability of Traditional (T) and Innovative (IT) pork products by European consumers considering also the influence of the sensory properties. The tests ...
Incorporation of a solar tracking system for enhancing the performance of solar air heaters in drying apple slices
(Elsevier, 2020-11-28)
The main aim of this study was to develop an integrated solar-tracking system to maximize the efficiency of solar heaters manufactured from recyclable aluminum cans (RAC) for optimum drying of apple ...
Effects of a high-fat-diet supplemented with probiotics and ω3-fatty acids on appetite regulatory neuropeptides and neurotransmitters in a pig model
(Wageningen Academic Publishers, 2020-07-28)
The pig is a valuable animal model to study obesity in humans due to the physiological similarity between humans and pigs in terms of digestive and associated metabolic processes. The dietary use of ...
Linking sensory and proton transfer reaction–mass spectrometry analyses for the assessment of melon fruit (Cucumis melo L.) quality traits
(Springer, 2020-05-05)
Sixty-seven samples of ten melon types (Cucumis melo L.) were evaluated to determine the relationship between their quality traits: sensory attributes, pH, soluble solids, and volatile organic compounds. ...
Consumer liking of M. longissimus lumborum from New Zealand pasture-finished lamb is influenced by intramuscular fat
(Elsevier, 2020-11-22)
Palatability of meat is known to be affected by intramuscular fat (IMF), but the effect in relatively low-fat New Zealand lamb is unknown. This study evaluated the eating quality of 108 loins (M. ...
CD36 gene polymorphism -31118 G > A (rs1761667) is associated with overweight and obesity but not with fat preferences in Mexican children
(Hogrefe, 2020-05-18)
CD36 glycoprotein is a candidate receptor involved in the gustatory detection of lipids and emerging evidence has suggested that genetic variations in CD36 may modulate the oral perception threshold to ...
Correction of defective textures in packaged dry-cured pork ham by applying conventional and ultrasonically-assisted mild thermal treatments
(Elsevier, 2020-03-16)
Pastiness is a textural defect characterized by an excessive softness and loss of elasticity which lacks corrective actions at industrial level. The objective of this study was to evaluate the textural ...
Effects of post mortem pH and salting time on Zinc-protoporphyrin content in nitrite-free Serrano dry-cured hams
(Elsevier, 2020-03-09)
There is a growing demand for clean label products and thus the elimination of curing additives in various dry-cured meats is of interest while maintaining colour characteristics. This study was aimed ...
