Nutrient supply affects the mRNA expression profile of the porcine skeletal muscle
(BMC, 2017-08-10)
Background: The genetic basis of muscle fat deposition in pigs is not well known. So far, we have only identified a limited number of genes involved in the absorption, transport, storage and catabolism ...
Sustainable food packaging: An updated definition following a holistic approach
(Frontiers Media, 2023-04-21)
Food packaging solutions need to be redesigned to be more sustainable, but determining which solution is ‘more optimal’ is a very difficult task when considering the entire food product value chain. ...
Radio frequency cooking of pork hams followed with conventional steam cooking
(Elsevier, 2020-01-27)
Radio frequency (RF) is a volumetric heating technology that reduces the time needed to cook foodstuffs, but heating is not evenly distributed. The aim of this work was to develop a two-step cooking ...
Precise nutritional labelling of sliced packaged dry-cured ham using multi-energy X-ray absorptiometry
(Elsevier, 2023-06-21)
New consumer demands have increased the need for improved food processing and new value-added products that meet the latest quality standards. Changes in eating habits may lead to a preference for lower ...
Computer image analysis for intramuscular fat segmentation in dry-cured ham slices using convolutional neural networks
(Elsevier, 2019-06-12)
Determination of intramuscular fat (IMF) content in dry cured meats is critical because it affects the sensory quality and consumer's acceptability. Recently, deep learning has become one of the most ...
Consumer perception of entire male pork coated with spiced edible films as a new product to mask boar taint
(Elsevier, 2023-03-28)
Pork production has undergone a shift towards the rearing of entire male pigs, however, its meat might carry with the presence of boar taint and it would be considered “unfit for human consumption”. To ...
Acceptability of Dry-Cured Belly (Pancetta) from Entire Males, Immunocastrates or Surgical Castrates: Study with Slovenian Consumers
(2019-04-13)
Abandoning of male piglets castration in the European Union is a challenge for the pork production sector in particular for high-quality dry-cured traditional products. The information on consumer ...
Automatic marbling prediction of sliced dry-cured ham using image segmentation, texture analysis and regression
(Elsevier, 2022-06-11)
Dry-cured ham is a traditional Mediterranean meat product consumed throughout the world. This product is very variable in terms of composition and quality. Consumer’s acceptability of this product is ...
Effectiveness of specularity removal from hyperspectral images on the quality of spectral signatures of food products
(Elsevier, 2020-05-24)
Specularity or highlight problem exists widely in hyperspectral images, provokes reflectance deviation from its true value, and can hide major defects in food objects or detecting spurious false defects ...
Utilization of Porcine Livers through the Formation of Zn-Protoporphyrin Pigment Optimized by a Response Surface Methodology
(MDPI, 2023-05-06)
There is a growing demand for clean-label products. This study aimed to obtain a food-grade coloring ingredient for meat products based on the formation of Zn-protoporphyrin from porcine livers, thus ...
