High moisture extrusion of pea protein isolate to mimic chicken texture: Instrumental and sensory insights
(Elsevier, 2024-04-25)
High moisture extrusion processing (HMEP) is gaining attention in the plant-based food industry to obtain meat-like textures from different vegetal protein sources. The aim of this study was to evaluate ...
Mass Spectrometric Detection of Cholesterol Oxidation in Bovine Sperm
(Oxford University Press, 2011-07-01)
We report on the presence and formation of cholesterol
oxidation products (oxysterols) in bovine sperm. Although
cholesterol is the most abundant molecule in the membrane of
mammalian cells and is ...
Global analysis of the association between pig muscle fatty acid composition and gene expression using RNA-Seq
(Nature Research, 2023-01-11)
Fatty acids (FAs) play an essential role as mediators of cell signaling and signal transduction, affecting metabolic homeostasis and determining meat quality in pigs. However, FAs are transformed by the ...
Effect of VacuumImpregnation and High Hydrostatic Pressure Treatments on Shelf Life, Physicochemical, and Sensory Properties of Seabream Fillets
(Springer, 2023-01-04)
