Pigs can learn to prefer a flavor if it has been previously associated to positive consequences. The aim of this experiment was to study flavor preferences conditioned by the postingestive effect of nutrients in pigs. In total, 240 weanling piglets were allocated in 24 pens (10 piglets/pen) and distributed to 2 groups of animals (12 pens per group). Pigs in Group 1 (G1) were trained during 8 d ...

The capacity of 11 strains of oral streptococcal species (Streptococcus sanguis, S. oralis, S. mitis and S. sobrinus) to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was studied in vitro. Detection of this property in solid media, particularly with trypticase soy agar-benzidine-peroxidase, was more sensitive than in liquid media. The addition of carbohydrates (arabinose, xylose, mannose, sorbose and lactos...

Sleep loss strongly affects brain function and may even predispose susceptible individuals to psychiatric disorders. Since a recurrent lack of sleep frequently occurs during adolescence, it has been implicated in the rise in depression incidence during this particular period of life. One mechanism through which sleep loss may contribute to depressive symptomatology is by affecting hippocampal f...
