Short communication. Sensory evaluation of commercial beef produced in Uruguay and three European countries
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2012-06-08)
The main goal of this study was to characterize and compare the organoleptic quality of beef from Uruguay and
from three European countries. In Uruguay, 40 Hereford steers were raised exclusively under ...
Gender-related differences in the formation of skatole metabolites by specific CYP450 in porcine hepatic S9 fractions
(Elsevier, 2014-12-03)
Higher accumulation of skatole in the fat of male pigs compared with female pigs might be due to gender-related differences in the rate of skatole degradation. In the present study, skatole metabolites ...
Effect of high hydrostatic pressure on the oxidation of washed muscle with added chicken hemoglobin
(Elsevier, 2019-04-19)
The role of chicken hemoglobin in lipid oxidation of washed chicken muscle exposed to high hydrostatic pressure (0, 200, 400 and 600 MPa) was examined. The observed decrease in redness was higher with ...
Next generation of microbiological risk assessment: Potential of omics data for exposure assessment
(Elsevier, 2017-10-04)
In food safety and public health risk evaluations, microbiological exposure assessment plays a central role as it provides an estimation of both the likelihood and the level of the microbial hazard in ...
Evaluation of potential nirs to predict pastures nutritive value
(Springer, 2013-05-22)
This paper describes the capability of near infra-reflectance (NIRS) to predict the nutritional quality of pastures
from southern Chile (39°-40°S). A Fourier transformed near-infrared (FT-NIR) method ...
Effect of environmental enrichment and herbal compounds-supplemented diet on pig carcass, meat quality traits, and consumers’ acceptability and preference
(MPDI, 2018-07-16)
Animal welfare can be considered an ethical attribute of product quality, but consumers
should appreciate its added value. The aim of this study was to evaluate consumer’s acceptability,
preference, ...
The effect of a high monounsaturated fat diet on body weight, backfat and loin muscle growth in high and medium-lean pig genotypes
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2012-01-23)
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether the use of a diet rich in oleic acid could have an effect on daily
weight gain, backfat and loin muscle (Longissimus thoracis) depth. One hundred and ...
Effects of whole linseed and rumen-protected conjugated linoleic acid enriched diets on beef quality
(Elsevier, 2015-11-23)
Instrumental assessments and sensory tests were performed to evaluate the effects of diet and postmortem ageing time (1, 7 and 21 days) on beef quality. A total of 48 Friesian calves were randomly ...
Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the organic acids lactic and acetic acids to reduce microbiological surface contamination on pork carcasses and pork cuts
(Wiley, 2018-12-12)
Studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of lactic and acetic acids to reduce microbiological surface
contamination on pork carcasses pre-chill and pork meat cuts post-chill were assessed. Lactic ...
Potential sensitivity of pork production situations aiming at high-quality products to the use of entire male pigs as an alternative to surgical castrates
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-11-16)
The perspective of a possible ban on surgical castration of male pigs in the EU is a real challenge for pork production systems
aiming at (very) high-quality products. Information was collected from a ...
