Dietary nutrients play a significant part in determining growth rate and meat yield. It is known that the compositions of protein and total amino acids of meat are invariable by feeding treatments, hence the meat taste is considered to be invariable. However, the relationship of taste components of meat with nutrients is not fully elucidated, and there have been few reports on the effect of fee...

Contractile and metabolic properties of bovine muscles play an important role in meat sensorial quality, particularly tenderness. Earlier studies based on Myosin heavy chain isoforms analyses and measurements of glycolytic and oxidative enzyme activities have demonstrated that the third trimester of foetal life in bovine is characterized by contractile and metabolic differentiation. In order to...

Background: fine motor function of school-aged children with dyslexia, learning disabilities and learning difficulties. Aim: this study aimed to characterize the fine motor, sensory and perceptive function of school-aged children with dyslexia, learning disabilities and learning difficulties and to correlate these results with the analysis of the children’s handwriting. Method: participants wer...

OBJECTIVES Work-related psychosocial hazards are associated with adverse health outcomes among workers. The association between psychosocial hazards and physiological health outcomes among laboratory technicians has not been studied previously. The objective of this study was to measure the association between work-related psychosocial hazards and the level of urinary catecholamines of laborato...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of two different spinal isobaric levobupivacaine doses on spinal anesthesia characteristics and to find the minimum effective dose for surgery in patients undergoing transurethral resection (TUR) surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty male patients undergoing TUR surgery were included in the study and were randomized into two equal groups: Group LB10 (n=25): 10...

BACKGROUND fine motor function of school-aged children with dyslexia, learning disabilities and learning difficulties. AIM this study aimed to characterize the fine motor, sensory and perceptive function of school-aged children with dyslexia, learning disabilities and learning difficulties and to correlate these results with the analysis of the children's handwriting. METHOD participants we...

The differences on proximate composition, sensorial analysis (for raw and cooked samples) and flesh productivity of the samples of Parapenaus longirostris that were caught in the North Aegean Sea and Marmara Sea were investigated. Moisture, protein, lipid, ash, carbohydrate, energy content of the North Aegean Sea shrimp were found 74.92 ± 0.1, 20.32 ± 0.16, 2.55 ± 0.1, 2.13 ± 0.08, 0.08%, 110.1...

Table tomatoes (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) have been tested during maturation process by carrying color determination by means of instruments as well as trough sensorial analysis, aiming to stablish data correlation between both methods. Recent picked testing fruits were selected by taking into account an uniform physiological maturation considered adequate for harvesting. Fruits were presen...

Materials and methods Retrospective analysis of 195 patients. The fuzzy model determined a DPN degree score (0-10) by the combination of fuzzy sets derived from clinical variables (sensorial modalities and a set of DPN-related symptoms), using if-then rules to combine the inputs with the output sets (Mamdani process), with membership functions determined by a team of 4 DPN specialists. The MCA ...

The effect of organic and conventional agricultural systems on the physicochemical parameters, bioactive compounds content, and sensorial attributes of tomatoes ("Redondo" cultivar) was studied. The influence on phytochemicals distribution among peel, pulp and seeds was also accessed. Organic tomatoes were richer in lycopene (+20%), vitamin C (+30%), total phenolics (+24%) and flavonoids (+21%)...
