Unravelling the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Protective Effect of Lactate on the High-Pressure Resistance of Listeria monocytogenes
(MDPI, 2021-04-30)
Formulations with lactate as an antimicrobial and high-pressure processing (HPP) as a lethal treatment are combined strategies used to control L. monocytogenes in cooked meat products. Previous studies ...
Role played by the environment in the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) through the food chain
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-06-17)
The role of food-producing environments in the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in EU plant-based food production, terrestrial animals (poultry, cattle and pigs) and aquaculture ...
Understanding How Microorganisms Respond to Acid pH Is Central to Their Control and Successful Exploitation
(Frontiers Media, 2020-09-24)
Microbes from the three domains of life, Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya, share the need to sense and respond to changes in the external and internal concentrations of protons. When the proton concentration ...
An attempt to predict conformation and fatness in bulls by means of artificial neural networks using weight, age and breed composition information
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2015)
The present study aimed to predict conformation and fatness grades in bulls based on data available at slaughter (carcass weight, age and breed proportions) by means of counter-propagation artificial ...
Effects of nomadic grazing system and indoor concentrate feeding systems on performance, behavior, blood parameters, and meat quality of finishing lambs
(Public Library of Science, 2022-12-07)
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of three production systems on growth performance, behavior, blood parameters, carcass characteristics, and meat quality. A total of 30 lambs (n = ...
Impact of Aging Methods and Frozen Storage on Beef Quality Attributes from Different Finishing Diets
(Iowa State University Digital Press, 2024-06-10)
The effects of finishing diet (pasture or grain) and meat preservation method on beef’s physicochemical, micro- biological, and sensory attributes were evaluated. The preservation methods assessed were ...
Valorisation of pork by-products to obtain antioxidant and antihypertensive peptides
(Elsevier, 2023-05-12)
The porcine liver could be used for the extraction of zinc-protoporphyrin (ZnPP) as a natural red meat pigment. During the autolysis process, porcine liver homogenates was incubated at pH 4.8 and 45 °C ...
Persistence of microbiological hazards in food and feed production and processing environments
(Wiley Open Access, 2024-01-19)
Listeria monocytogenes (in the meat, fish and seafood, dairy and fruit and vegetable
sectors), Salmonella enterica (in the feed, meat, egg and low moisture food
sectors) and Cronobacter sakazakii (in ...
High hydrostatic pressure enhances the formation of oleocanthal and oleacein in ‘Arbequina’ olive fruit
(Elsevier, 2023-10-30)
During olive oil production, the activity of endogenous enzymes plays a crucial role in determining the oil’s
phenolic composition. β-Glucosidase contributes to the formation of secoiridoids, while ...
Estimation of carcass composition and cut composition from computed tomography images of live growing pigs of different genotypes
(Elsevier, 2014-09-12)
The aim of the present work was (1) to study the relationship between cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) images obtained in live growing pigs of different genotypes and dissection measurements and ...
