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 ...
Texture characterization of dry-cured ham using multi energy X-ray analysis
(2018-02-03)
Multi energy X-ray sensors are able to differentiate and quantify X-rays of different energies. In contrast to conventional sensors, which simply record the overall
energy of the ...
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 ...
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 ...
Shelf life of ground beef enriched with omega-3 and/or conjugated linoleic acid and use of grape seed extract to inhibit lipid oxidation
(Wiley Open Access, 2015-07-29)
The shelf life and oxidative stability of refrigerated raw ground beef enriched with omega-3 and/or conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) were studied. Grape seed extract (GSE) was used to inhibit lipid oxidation ...
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 ...
Using 19% of alfalfa hay in beef feedlot finishing diets did not modify meat quality but increased feed intake and ADG
(Oxford University Press, 2019-02-06)
To evaluate the effects of including extra alfalfa hay in high concentrate diets fed to beef heifers on intake, average daily gain (ADG), gain to feed ratio (G:F), and carcass and meat quality, we used ...
Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) with semi-trained assessors: Sensory profiles closer to descriptive analysis or consumer elicited data?
(Elsevier, 2017-10-16)
Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) is a simple and fast sensory profiling tool. Yet, its application has been mainly focused on consumer studies; the aim of this study was to evaluate the application of CATA ...
Shelf‐life extension of multi‐vegetables smoothies by high‐pressure processing compared with thermal treatment. Part I: Microbial and enzyme inhibition, antioxidant status, and physical stability
(Wiley, 2019-07-31)
Consumer demand for minimally processed food products based on fruits and vegetables is associated with their “fresh‐like” qualities and a desire for convenience. Smoothies could help meet these needs ...
Effect of high pressure processing temperature on dry-cured hams with different textural characteristics
(Elsevier, 2019-02-22)
High pressure processing is mainly used to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms and extend
the shelf-life of dry-cured hams, but it also modifies its texture. These changes might be different
depending ...
