Changes in bread-making quality attributes of bread wheat varieties cultivated in Spain during the 20th century
(Elsevier, 2014-12-08)
Genetic gains in quality traits were assessed in grain samples from 4 field experiments involving 16 bread wheat varieties representative of those most widely cultivated in Spain during the 20th century. ...
Vegan Egg: A Future-Proof Food Ingredient?
(MDPI, 2022-01-08)
Vegan eggs are designed with the aim to provide a healthier and more sustainable alternative to regular eggs. The major drivers of this industry are the increasing prevalence of egg allergies, awareness ...
Agreement and differential use of laboratory methods for the detection and quantification of SARS-CoV-2 in experimentally infected animals
(Frontiers Media, 2022-11-15)
Rodents are widely used for the development of COVID-19-like animal models, the virological outcome being determined through several laboratory methods reported in the literature. Our objective was to ...
An association analysis between a polymorphism in the SEC24A gene and lipid traits recorded in Duroc pigs
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2021-10-05)
By regulating the expression of low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR), the SEC24A protein modulates the clearance of plasma cholesterol in mice. The whole-genome sequencing of five Duroc boars that ...
Antimicrobial resistance profile and prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL), AmpC beta-lactamases and colistin resistance (mcr) genes in Escherichia coli from swine between 1999 and 2018
(BMC, 2020-04-02)
The frequent usage of antibiotics in livestock has led to the spread of resistant bacteria within animals and their products, with a global warning in public health and veterinarians to monitor such ...

(Wiley Open Access, 2022-01-25)
EFSA received a mandate from the European Commission to assess the effectiveness of control measures against diseases included in the Category A list according to Regulation (EU) 2016/429 on transmissible ...
The vertebrate Aqp14 water channel is a neuropeptide-regulated polytransporter
(Springer Nature, 2019-12-11)
Water channels (aquaporins) were originally discovered in mammals with fourteen subfamilies now identified (AQP0-13). Here we show that a functional Aqp14 subfamily phylogenetically related to AQP4-type ...
Development of pig conventional dendritic cells from bone marrow hematopoietic cells in vitro
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-08)
In recent years, porcine dendritic cells (DCs) have been identified from pig tissues. However, studying the interaction of porcine DCs with pathogens is still difficult due to the scarcity of DCs in ...
Effect of a single dose of subcutaneous meloxicam before knife castration alone or combined with hot-iron branding on scrotal healing, inflammatory response, and behaviour in 2-mo-old beef calves over 42 d post procedure
(NRC Research Press, 2018-08-21)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a single subcutaneous injection of meloxicam on scrotal healing, inflammatory response, and behaviour in castrated or castrated and branded beef ...
Use of visible-near infrared spectroscopy to predict nutrient composition of poultry excreta
(Elsevier, 2021-11-25)
Nowadays optimal feed formulation for poultry is sought for available content, which takes into account how the nutrients are digested and metabolized by the animal. The digestibility coefficients of ...
