Establishing the Tolerability to Turkeys of Nonanoic Acid at Practical Levels of Use as a Feed Flavoring
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2021-07-25)
Objective: Nonanoic acid (NA) is one of a series of straight-chain aliphatic alcohols, aldehydes, acids and their derivatives with a well-documented history of use as a synthetic flavoring in human food. ...
Oral bioaccessibility of toxic and essential elements in raw and cooked commercial seafood species available in European markets
(Elsevier, 2017-11-16)
The oral bioaccessibility of several essential and toxic elements was investigated in raw and cooked commercially available seafood species from European markets. Bioaccessibility varied between seafood ...
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 ...
Analysis of porcine adipose tissue transcriptome reveals differences in de novo fatty acid synthesis in pigs with divergent muscle fatty acid composition
(BMC, 2013-12-01)
Background: In pigs, adipose tissue is one of the principal organs involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism.
It is particularly involved in the overall fatty acid synthesis with consequences in ...
Effect of sex and RYR1 gene mutation on the muscle proteomic profile and main physiological biomarkers in pigs at slaughter
(Elsevier, 2018-03-27)
Gender and RYR1 gene mutation might have an effect on the muscle metabolic characteristics and on the animal's stress at slaughter, which could influence the process of muscle-to-meat conversion. ...
Addition of arginine and leucine to low or normal protein diets: performance, carcass characteristics and intramuscular fat of finishing pigs
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2017-01-20)
The effect of dietary crude protein (CP) reduction, supplementation with arginine or leucine on intramuscular fat (IMF) content was evaluated in (Landrace × Duroc) × Pietrain pigs. One-hundred and eight ...
Epigenetic regulation of the ELOVL6 gene is associated with a major QTL effect on fatty acid composition in pigs
(BMC, 2015-03-25)
Background: In previous studies on an Iberian x Landrace cross, we have provided evidence that supported the porcine ELOVL6 gene as the major causative gene of the QTL on pig chromosome 8 for palmitic ...
Umami taste components in chicken-spices blends and potential effect of aroma on umami taste intensity
(Elsevier, 2023-06-01)
In this study, umami taste intensity (UTI) and umami taste components in chicken breast (CB) and
chicken-spices blends were characterized using sensory and instrumental analysis. Our main objective was ...
Parámetros genéticos de rasgos productivos de cuyes (Cavia porcellus) de las líneas Saños y Mantaro
(Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, 2022-06-29)
El objetivo del estudio fue estimar los componentes de varianzas, la heredabilidad y correlaciones genéticas y fenotípicas de los rasgos productivos de las líneas de cuyes Saños y Mantaro, desarrolladas ...
Prediction of tissue composition of live dairy calves and carcasses by computed tomography
(Elsevier, 2020-12-13)
Computed tomography (CT) is a non-destructive technique, based on X-rays, that has been used in several livestock species to evaluate carcass composition. The objective of this study was to construct ...
