Reduction of androstenone perception in pan‐fried boar meat by different masking strategies
(Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2017-10-05)BACKGROUND Consumers highly sensitive to androstenone María (AND) will probably reject meat from entire male pigs, which tends to have high levels of this hormone. To avoid this, the effect of different ... -
Reduction of salt content variability of dry-cured ham production using non-invasive technologies in an industrial environment
(Meat Science, 2024-05-15)Salt content variability of dry-cured ham production is a challenge for the industry since many factors can influence salt uptake during the salting procedure. The aim of this work was to define and ... -
Regulation of climacteric fruit ripening in melon: recent advances and future challenges
(Journal of Experimental Botany, 2023-07-03)Fruit ripening is a complex and highly regulated process where tomato and strawberry have been the model species classically used for studying climacteric and non-climacteric fleshy fruit ripening types, ... -
Relationship among Soil Biophysicochemical Properties, Agricultural Practices and Climate Factors Influencing Soil Phosphatase Activity in Agricultural Land
(Agriculture, 2024-02-10)Phosphorus (P) is a vital macronutrient crucial for crop productivity. Plants absorb P salts, mainly orthophosphate, from the soil, yet the primary P source resides in organic materials. Acid and alkaline ... -
Relationship between chemical composition and standardized ileal digestible amino acid contents of corn grain in broiler chickens
(Poultry Science, 2020-06-25)This experiment was conducted to evaluate the chemical composition and standardized ileal amino acid digestibility of corn grain and to use these data to develop prediction equations for estimating total ... -
Relationship between Salmonella infection, shedding and serology in fattening pigs in low–moderate prevalence areas
(Zoonoses and Public Health, 2018-04-27)Salmonella is a major foodborne pathogen causing important zoonosis worldwide. Pigs asymptomatically infected in mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) can be intermittent shedders of the pathogen through faeces, ... -
Relationship between Zoometric Measurements in HolsteinFriesian Cow and Cubicle Size in Dairy Farms
(International Journal of Morphology, 2013-03-01)Body measurements in Portuguese Holstein-Friesian breed and its association with the dimensions of the cubicles were investigated. During a period of 5 months, body measurements and cubicles size data ... -
Relationships among Consumer Liking, Lipid and Volatile Compounds from New Zealand Commercial Lamb Loins
(Foods, 2021-05-20)Loin sections (m. Longissimus lumborum) were collected at slaughter from forty-eight lamb carcasses to evaluate consumer-liking scores of six types of typical New Zealand commercial lamb and to understand ... -
Relative bioavailability of DL and L-methionine in broilers
(Open Journal of Animal Sciences, 2018-04-12)Studies on the relative bioavailability (RBV) of DL-Methionine (DL-Met) to L-Methionine (L-Met) have produced variable results. An experiment was conducted to determine the RBV of DL to L-Met. A total ... -
Releases of the parasitoid Anisopteromalus calandrae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) can control Sitophilus zeamais (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in big bags of paddy rice
(Biological Control, 2021-08-12)Sitophilus zeamais is a key pest in stored rice in Spain and other Mediterranean countries. Today, it is mostly controlled with a few pesticides, such as pyrethroids or phosphine. Apart from the problem ... -
