Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Influence of Various Combinations of Aging and Freezing/Defrosting Modes on the Quality Indicators of Saanen Goat MeatUrishbay Chomanov, Gulmira Kenenbay, Alibek Tursynov et al.The paper evaluates the effect of various combinations of aging and freezing/defrosting on the water-holding capacity (drip loss, purge loss, and cook loss) and tenderness of four types of goat meat muscles (M. longissimus dorsi, M. latisimus dorsi, M. Semimembranosus, M. gluteobiceps). Samples obtained from 35 goat carcasses after five weeks of storage under different conditions were studied: (1) Aging … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 24 Aug 2023 · 5,052 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosynthesis and Evaluation of Zinc, Copper, and Methionine Feed Supplements Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae on Duck Performance in Minimal Water SystemsHendi Setiyatwan, Muhammad Rifqi IsmirajOptimizing duck performance under minimal water conditions is essential for sustainable poultry farming. Biosynthesizing essential feed supplements like Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), and methionine using Saccharomyces cerevisiae presents a promising method to enhance growth and meat quality. This study developed a biosynthesis method for Zn, Cu, and methionine supplements using S. cerevisiae and evaluated their effects on duck performance.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF PROTEIN CONCENTRATE FROM BLACK COWPEA AND ITS APPLICATIONAnuchita Moongngarm, Sirinapa Sasanam, Watcharee Pinsiri et al.Black cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) is high in protein, which makes it suitable for use as a protein supplement in food products. However, direct application of cowpea flour in food products is limited as it may affect some quality aspects of foods. Protein concentrate and isolate are a form of the protein that is gaining interest in industry. Therefore, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Nov 2014 · 6,403 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical and Physical Characteristics of Cocopeat-Based Media Mixtures and Their Effects on the Growth and Development of Celosia cristataYahya Awang, Anieza Shazmi Shaharom, Rosli B. Mohamad, Ahmad SelamatProblem statement: Cocopeat is considered as a good growing media component with acceptable pH, electrical conductivity and other chemical attributes but it has been recognized to have high water holding capacity which causes poor air-water relationship, leading to low aeration within the medium, thus affecting the oxygen diffusion to the roots. Incorporation of coarser materials into cocopeat could improve the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 19,001 accessesView PDF Cite
