Review on the methodology to assess respiratory tract lesions in pigs and their production impact
(BMC, 2023-02-01)
Porcine respiratory disease is one of the most important health problems in pig production worldwide. Cranioventral pulmonary consolidation (CVPC) and pleurisy are the two most common lesions in the ...
Effects of Flavonoids Extracted from Citrus aurantium on Performance, Behavior, and Rumen Gene Expression in Holstein Bulls Fed with High-Concentrate Diets in Pellet Form
(MDPI, 2021-05-13)
Flavonoid supplementation may modify the behavior and rumen inflammatory response of fattening bulls, and this could be related to the concentrate presentation (mash or pellet) form. In the present ...
Monitoring Natural SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Lions (Panthera leo) at the Barcelona Zoo: Viral Dynamics and Host Responses
(MDPI, 2021-08-25)
To date, no evidence supports the fact that animals play a role in the epidemiology of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of the coronavirus infectious ...
Near infrared spectroscopy for fast characterization of animal by products feedstocks for biogas production: Calibration of a handheld device
(Elsevier, 2022-12-28)
Anaerobic digestion performance is highly influenced by the chemical composition and flow of substrates. This work evaluates the feasibility of a handheld near infrared spectrometer to predict moisture, ...
Suspended culture of Pinna rudis enhances survival and allows the development of a seasonal growth model for Mediterranean Pinnids
(Elsevier, 2021-05-25)
A two-year growth study of 80 Pinna rudis individuals was conducted in offshore cages in the western Mediterranean Sea. A Von Bertalanffy growth model was fitted to monthly measured data of 40 individuals ...
Bioaccessibility and antioxidant activity of phenolic compounds in cooked pulses
(Wiley, 2019-01-04)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the bioaccessibility of polyphenols and antioxidant activity in cooked pulses and to study the effect of cooking on their total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant ...
The influence of olive tree fertilization on the phenols in virgin olive oils. A review
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas. Instituto de la Grasa, 2022-09-08)
The total phenols in virgin olive oil are highly dependent on cultivar, but also on ripening stage and other agronomic factors. The focus of most studies on agronomic factors has been irrigation, while ...

The objective of the present study is to present an animal welfare assessment protocol for
growing‐rabbits for discussion after its implementation in 32 farms from Spain and Portugal. The
protocol ...
Co-expression network analysis predicts a key role of microRNAs in the adaptation of the porcine skeletal muscle to nutrient supply
(BMC, 2020-01-17)
Background
The role of non-coding RNAs in the porcine muscle metabolism is poorly understood, with few studies investigating their expression patterns in response to nutrient supply. Therefore, we aimed ...
Cultivar differences in the hormonal crosstalk regulating apple fruit development and ripening: relationship with flavour components and postharvest susceptibility to Penicillium expansum
(Elsevier, 2023-08-17)
The hormonal interplay during the on-tree development and ripening of three apple cultivars with known differences in their postharvest ripening patterns was studied, at the biochemical and targeted ...
