Carotenoid-based coloration in adult birds has been often regarded as an honest signal of individual quality. However, few studies have demonstrated a link between carotenoid display and the quantity or quality of resources provided to the offspring. The present study investigated the expression of a carotenoid-based ornament, the breast plumage yellowness of the blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus, i...

The paper presents the results of analysis cotton weight per boll, yield, fiber output, length and quality newly created medium-fiber “Nasib” variety, which is studied as selection test. A three-year microneur, hardness, length, uniformity, index short fibers, elongation at break, soiling, defect count, reflectivity yellowness presented.

The objective of this research was to investigate the effect substitution wheat flour with sweet cassava and rice on physical sensory qualities in a gluten-free Takoyaki. different ratios were performed at five recipes, including 55:45 (HN55), 65:35 (HN65), 75:25 (HN75), 85:15 (HN85) 100:0 (HN100) then analyzed their quality attributes. These results indicated that increasing ratio Takoyaki pro...

By combining genotype, age and nutrition it is possible to achieve modulation within a wide range of intramuscular lipid levels. Increasing lipid levels mainly results in increased triglyceride, saturated and mono-unsaturated fatty acids in duck meat. The activity of glycolytic energy metabolism is decreased while that of oxidative energy metabolism is stimulated. Lightness, yellowness, juice l...

Fruit leather is a processed food product in the form of thin sheets made from fruit and through drying process. Pineapple tropical that popular among public, but it perishable. In this study, gotu kola (Centella asiatica) pectin were added to increase nutritional content health benefits leather. The purpose study was determine effect addition on physicochemical sensory properties pineapple fin...

As climate change is expected to worsen in the future, raising livestock animals used meat production with maximum efficiency warm conditions may become a necessity meet food needs. To this end, experiment was carried out determine quality properties of breast from different colored Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix Japonica) grown under conditions. A total 100 were used, 25 each black, white,...

Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in the calpain 1, (mu/I) large subunit (CAPN1), calpastatin (CAST), and cathepsin D (CTSD) genes were analyzed in a large sample of Piemontese cattle. The aim of this study was to evaluate allele and genotype frequencies of these SNPs and to investigate associations of CAPN1, CAST, and CTSD gene variants with meat quality traits. Minor allele ...

In recent years, the production of nutritious snacks has received much attention. Food industry by-products represent an abundant source of nutrients and are often used as an animal feed. Sunflower seed meal is high in protein and essential amino acids, minerals and vitamins and mohammadi rose (R. Damascena) waste, contains high amounts of phenolic compounds. In the present study, sunflower see...

The effect of Cinnamomum zeylanicum essential oil (CZEO) at two concentrations (0.02% and 0.04% v/w) on chemical composition, pH, water activity (aw), lipid oxidation, color stability and sensory characteristics of Lyoner-type sausage stored at 4 ˚C for 40 days was investigated. The moisture content of the control sample was higher (p < 0.05) than CZEO incorporated samples, wh...
