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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Pig cognitive bias affects the conversion of muscle into meat by antioxidant and autophagy mechanisms
(Elsevier, 2017-04-18)
Slaughter is a crucial step in the meat production chain that could induce psychological stress on each animal, resulting in a physiological response that can differ among individuals. The aim of this ...
Salmonella control in poultry flocks and its public health impact
(EFSA Journal, 2019-02-19)
An increase in confirmed human salmonellosis cases in the EU after 2014 triggered investigation of contributory factors and control options in poultry production. Reconsideration of the five current ...
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 ...
Finishing strategies for steers based on pasture or silage plus grain and time on feed and their effects on beef quality
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2015-04)
The aims of the present study were to compare the quality of grainfed and pasture-fed beef and to assess the effects of two feeding periods on grain for finishing steers. A group of 75 steers were fed ...
Effect of production system before the finishing period on carcass, meat and fat qualities of beef
(Elsevier, 2013-08-01)
Twenty Gascon young bulls that had been reared either in intensive conditions (INT) (n = 10) with early weaning at 3 to 4 months,
or in a traditional extensive (EXT) system (n = 10) with weaning at 7 ...
