Subcutaneous fat composition of youthful and mature Canadian beef: emphasis on individual conjugated linoleic acid and trans-18:1 isomers
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2008-12)
[EN]A comprehensive evaluation of the fatty acid composition of subcutaneous adipose tissue from beef cattle produced in western Canada was undertaken to determine if the current Canadian grading system is able to distinguish ...
Phenotypic correlations of fatty acid composition among intramuscular, subcutaneous and intermuscular fat tissues in concentrate-fed beef cattle of differing genotypes
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2009-03)
[EN]In an attempt to predict intramuscular fatty acid composition using easily accessible fat depots, between-tissue correlations were studied in 75 Asturiana de los Valles bulls with different levels of muscular hypertrophy, ...
Rapid determination of total CLA concentration in beef fat
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2007-06)
[EN]Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has many potential healthful properties, and beef is naturally enriched with CLA. Simple and rapid methods to measure total CLA were investigated to enable sorting of beef carcasses with ...
Evaluation of wheat or corn dried distillers' grains with solubles on performance and carcass characteristics of feedlot steers
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2010-06)
[EN]A study was conducted on crossbred steers (n=275; 376±924 kg) to evaluate performance and carcass quality of cattle fed wheat or corn dried distillers’ grains with solubles (DDGS). The control ration contained 86.6% ...
Dietary vitamin E inhibits the trans 10-18:1 shift in beef backfat
(Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2010-03)
[EN]Forty feedlot steers were fed a barleygrain-based finishing diet typical for western Canada, with two levels of supplementary vitamin E (468 or 1068 IU head_1 d_1) and the effect on backfat trans-18:1 isomeric profile ...
Breed effect on quality veal production in mountain areas: Emphasis on meat
(Elsevier, 2012)
This study was designed to compare the quality of veal produced from ‘Tudanca x Charolais’ cross (n=6) and Limousin (n=6) breeds when allowed to feed freely on mountain pastures and suckle naturally from birth to 7 months ...
Biomolecule storage on non-modified thermoplastic microfluidic chip by ink-jet printing of ionogels
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2015)
[EN] This paper reports an innovative technique for reagents storage in microfluidic devices by means of a one-step UV-photoprintable ionogel-based microarray on non-modified polymeric substrates. Although the ionogel and ...
Bovine Neutrophils Release Extracellular Traps and Cooperate With Macrophages in Mycobacterium Avium Subsp. Paratuberculosis Clearance In Vitro
(Frontiers Media, 2021-03-17)
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) is the underlying pathogen causing bovine paratuberculosis (PTB), an enteric granulomatous disease that mainly affects ruminants and for which an effective treatment is ...
Effects of a snack enriched with carob and Undaria pinnatifida (wakame) on metabolic parameters in a double blind, randomized clinical trial in obese patients
(SENPE-Arán Ediciones, 2020-07-13)
Introduction: Introduction: the composition of snack foods likely influences the overall effect that snacking has on metabolism and obesity. The objective of the current study was to assess the responses to two different ...
