To evaluate the effect of stocking density and transport time on physiological responses meat quality, 72 male suckling lambs were transported by road to slaughterhouse at three different densities (0.12, 0.20 or 0.25 m2/lamb) two times (5 h 30 min). Blood samples collected pre-transport farm after unloading in measure levels cortisol, creatine kinase (CK) lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). After slaughter, weights hot carcass, liver spleen recorded pH Musculus longisimus thoracis et lumborum (L),...
Abstract Three weaning treatments (weaning at 45 days of age, 65 unweaned) and two slaughter weights (24 28 kg) were compared in lambs raised pasture, their effect on carcass meat traits studied. Unweaned displayed a greater growth rate, lower concentrate consumption, dorsal fat thickness, more kidney knob channel total levels, measured through dissection the hind limb. Total collagen concentration was unweaned intramuscular these same animals exhibited proportion saturated fatty acids...
The aim of this work was to improve the fatty acid profile meat from light lamb, frequently reared in Spain and other Mediterranean countries. A total 44 lambs fed different n-3 polyunsaturated acids sources were studied: control (C) (palm oil), extruded linseed (L), mixed with microalgae (LM) fish oil (FO). productive performance 14.7 26.2 kg live weights quality characteristics during refrigerated storage assessed. Lambs FO showed lower feed intake (p <0.001), average daily gain...
In the studied commercial pea protein isolate (PPI) some physicochemical modifications are induced in structure during its processing. That fact would result into a reduction of proteins techno-functional properties. It has been evidenced by Differential Scanning Calorimetry denaturation what gives as poor gelling ability. Microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) was added at different concentrations to improve gelation process two settings/thermal treatments make suitable texture PPI gels base...
