This study aims to determine the consumer preferences for fresh and frozen local beef in Sleman Regency by employing a descriptive method. Meatshop Oricow, biggest seller Regency, was chosen purposively as research location. A sample consisting of 50 consumers were surveyed. Chi-Square analysis utilized attributes both beef. While multi-attribute Fishbein used consumers’ attitudes toward purcha...

Crossbred Angus steers (n = 30) were used to determine whether the conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) content of beef fat could be increased by feeding varying levels of extruded full-fat soybeans as a source of polyunsaturated fatty acids for rumen biohydrogenation. Diets were as follows: 1) control, 2) 12.7% extruded full-fat soybeans (LESB), and 3) 25.6% extruded full-fat soybeans (HE SB). Steer...

The objectives of this research were to examine the palatability of stabilized rice bran (SRB) when included in a dry canine diet, and to determine the effects of SRB on food intake, digestion, fecal characteristics, blood lipid characteristics, and selected immune mediators. Experiment 1 tested the palatability of SRB. Diets contained poultry fat in Test 1 and soybean oil in Test 2, in conjunc...

Postmortem proteolysis in skeletal muscle and factors affecting this process were examined in pork, lamb and beef longissimus muscles (LM) to determine the cause of differences in meat tenderness among these species. Fat thickness differed among species in the following order: pork greater than beef greater than lamb. The following patterns were observed for rate of temperature and pH decline: ...

purpose: to separate and characterize orbital fat-derived stem cells (ofscs) and compare its cellular and molecular properties with those of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) and adipose-derived stem cells (ascs). methods: stem cells from orbital fat, abdominal fat and bone marrow aspirates have been isolated. we assessed stem cell specific cell surface markers using cytometry, ...

background: the aim was to investigate the relationships among lean mass (lm), fat mass (fm), and bone mineral density (bmd) in women stratified by body mass index (bmi) (bmi – normal-weight, overweight, obese) and to determine threshold at which body fat assumes negative relationship with bmd. methods: this was a cross-sectional study in 471 healthy caucasian women, aged 18-67 years. bmd, lm, ...

This publication uses national, quarterly data to examine U.S. meat demand using the Rotterdam model. The analysis provides insights into beef demand and previously unexamined topics including the effect of multiple information indices linking different health concerns with diet, changes in household dynamics, and meat recall information. Estimation results confirmed that consumer expenditures ...

BACKGROUND Glycomacropeptide (GMP) is a 64-amino acid glycophosphopeptide released from κ-casein during cheesemaking that promotes satiety, reduces body fat, increases bone mass and infers prebiotic and anti-inflammatory effects. The impact of adiposity and gender on bone health is unclear. OBJECTIVE To determine how feeding female mice diets providing 60% Fat Kcal (high-fat) or 13% Fat Kcal ...

Meat is widely considered to be a good source of protein, vitamins and minerals such as iron, selenium, zinc, vitamin B. Besides consuming meat muscle tissues, it is well known that in the Mediterranean area certain populations also consume other meat tissues as the bone marrow, fats, and what is known as “Fashi” or “Ma’alak” which contains the kidneys, spleen, liver, heart, and lungs. In addit...

Multiple linear regression equations predicting total skeletal muscle (TM) and total skeletal fat-free muscle (TFFM) weight were developed from data of 33 beef cows. Animals varied in weight (385 to 749 kg), age (3 to 10 yr), and fatness (.13 to 2.54 cm). A four-terminal impedance meter/plethysmograph measured resistance and reactance on the live animals, exsanguinated (bled) animals, and on th...
