Sex-based differences in the enteroendocrine system and food intake regulation due to dietary protein replacement by Alphitobius Diaperinus in rats
The rising global demand for animal protein, coupled with the environmental impact of conventional livestock, has sparked interest in sustainable alternatives. Insect-derived proteins, particularly from Alphitobius diaperinus ...
Exploring the use of FTIR Amide I band deconvolution to investigate protein secondary structure and texturisation during high moisture extrusion
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) combined with Amide I band deconvolution has been used to investigate protein structural changes occurring during high moisture extrusion processing (HMEP). However, it is ...
Guidance document on the submission of data for the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of substances for the removal of microbial surface contamination of foods of animal origin intended for human consumption
EFSA developed an updated guidance document on the submission of data for the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of decontaminating substances for the removal of microbial surface contamination of foods of animal origin ...
Linking anatomy and physiology of almond to irrigation strategies: Towards standardized thresholds and decision-support tools for water-limited environments
Almond (Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D.A. Webb) is one of the most important nut crops cultivated in arid and semi-arid regions, where water availability is a key factor determining yield and nut quality. Its domestication in dry ...
C-CTX1 and 17-OH-C-CTX1 Accumulation in Muscle and Liver of Dusky Grouper (Epinephelus marginatus, Lowe 1834): A Unique Experimental Study Under Low-Level Exposure
This study investigated the bioaccumulation of ciguatoxins (CTXs) in dusky grouper (Epinephelus marginatus) following dietary exposure to toxic fish flesh. Two feeding groups were established: group A (amberjack (Seriola ...
Natural curing strategies for nitrite-free dry-fermented sausages: Effects of NOS-positive Staphylococcus spp., Zn-protoporphyrin and polyphenol-rich extracts on untargeted metabolome and sensory quality
The reduction of permitted nitrite levels in meat products by the European Union, driven by concerns related to nitrosamine formation and consumer health, has intensified the need for effective and safe nitrite replacement ...
Detection of mollicutes in maize plants and its insect vector, Dalbulus maidis, in Paraguay
Corn diseases caused by mollicutes have been present in Paraguay since 1990, but recent epidemics have brought attention to farmers and scientists. Local information about mollicutes incidence in maize is scarce and molecular ...
Widespread presence of potato virus Y in the main potato-producing region of Paraguay
Potato virus Y (PVY) is one of the most significant potato pathogens worldwide. However, its incidence and distribution in Paraguay remained unknown since its initial detection in the 1990s. This study aimed to assess the ...
Phagocytosis of Mycobacterium fortuitum by Caprine Alveolar Macrophages Is Associated with iNOS and Pro-Inflammatory Markers Expression
Mycobacterial diseases, including tuberculosis (TB), remain the major health and economic challenges in livestock, underscoring the need to characterise the innate immune mechanisms involved in early bacterial containment. ...
La realitat climàtica i agrícola en el segle XXI en el Mediterrani de la península Ibèrica
El canvi climàtic, que ja és una realitat climàtica, constitueix un gran desafiament per a la producció agroalimentària a Espanya i Catalunya, especialment a l’àrea mediterrània. Tot i notables avenços en els darrers anys, ...
Blood lipidome profiling reveals potential biomarkers linked to health and carcass quality traits in pigs
Background The modulation, activation, and differentiation of several immune cells is highly dependent on lipid metabolism. The objective of this study was to analyse the genetic determinism of the porcine plasma lipidome ...
Mushroom stem-based diets elicit region-specific shifts in rainbow trout gut microbiota
The intestinal microbiota of fish plays a crucial role in host condition and health, exhibiting region-specific functions influenced by dietary components. This study evaluated the effects of mushroom stem meals from ...
Can genetic diversity in microalgae species be explained by climate: an overview of metabarcoding with diatoms
Diatoms, a diverse and abundant group of microalgae, play a crucial role in the functioning of rivers, and are widely used as indicators of ecological quality. This microalgae group has an intraspecific genetic diversity ...
Effect of a pre-harvest treatment with Harvista™ on the nutraceutical quality and volatile compound profile of apples
The formulation of a pre-harvest treatment including the active ingredient 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), Harvista™ effectively delays fruit ripening. This study aimed to investigate the effects of Harvista on the ...
Impact of rising temperatures during dormancy on key yield components in almond
Agriculture must adapt to the effects of climate change, with temperatures expected to rise in the coming de cades. Deciduous fruit trees rely heavily on temperature regimes during dormancy, requiring low temperatures in ...
Optimizing genomic selection models for wheat breeding under contrasting water regimes in a mediterranean environment
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a vital global crop, supplying 20% of the protein in the human diet. Improving its productivity and resilience, particularly under water-limited conditions, is a major breeding priority. ...
Leveraging Earth Observation Data to Monitor Boat-Based Recreational Fishing
Recreational fishing is widespread in coastal zones and exerts significant ecological, fisheries-related and socio-economic pressures. Unlike commercial fishing, small-scale recreational fleets are challenging to monitor ...
Comparative study of nutrient and antioxidant contents in by-products of peach and nectarine varieties
This study investigates the nutritional composition and antioxidant potential of industrial by-products derived from various cultivars of peaches (Prunus persica) and nectarines (Prunus persica var. nucipersica), specifically ...
Differential LTR‑retrotransposon dynamics across polyploidization, speciation, domestication, and improvement of cotton (Gossypium)
