Search for biomarkers for the LC-ESI-QqQ determination of Phenoxymethylpenicillin treatment in raw and cooked chicken meat samples
The high standards required for food safety make it necessary to trace unambiguously raw or cooked food products coming from medicated animals. Nevertheless, considering the lability of β-lactams and their degradation, the ...
Effect of diverse cooking treatments on enrofloxacin residues and its metabolites in chicken tissues by LC-MS
Although safety delays are established in the introduction into the market of the products derived from medicated animals, residues of drugs and their metabolites may remain in the edible meat and reach the food chain. In ...

Compartir ideas. La universidad va al instituto es un proyecto de aprendizaje servicio transversal de la Universidad de Barcelona. Este representa una propuesta de aprendizaje servicio que bajo una estructura común permite ...
Mediterranean Diet Modulates Gene Expression of Cholesterol Efflux Receptors in High-Risk Cardiovascular Patients
In this study, we investigated gene expression related to cholesterol efflux receptors in individuals at high cardiovascular risk undergoing Mediterranean dietary interventions. Through transcriptomic analysis, we examined ...
Influence of the addition of KCl and CaCl2 blends on the physicochemical parameters of salted meat products throughout the processing steps
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different chloride salts (NaCl, KCl, and CaCl2) on the characteristics of salted meat products through the determination of moisture, pH, aw, chloride, ash levels, ...
Effect of feed fat by-products with trans fatty acids and heated oil on cholesterol and oxycholesterols in chicken
Chicken is the most widely consumed meat all over the world due to chickens being easy to rear, their fast growth rate and the meat having good nutritional characteristics. The main objective of this paper was to study the ...
Sweet Potato Is Not Simply an Abundant Food Crop: A Comprehensive Review of Its Phytochemical Constituents, Biological Activities, and the Effects of Processing
Nowadays, sweet potato (Ipomoea batata L.; Lam.) is considered a very interesting nutritive food because it is rich in complex carbohydrates, but as a tubercle, contains high amounts of healthpromoting secondary metabolites. ...
Effect of physiological factors, pathologies, and acquired habits on the sweet taste threshold: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Sweet taste perception is a key factor in the establishment of the food pattern with nonstatic thresholds. Indeed, taste sensitivity can be influenced by physiological factors (age and sex), pathologies (obesity and type ...
New synthetic inhibitors of fatty acid synthase with anticancer activity
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a lipogenic enzyme that is highly expressed in different human cancers. Here we report the development of a new series of polyphenolic compounds 5-30 that have been evaluated for their cytotoxic ...
GH levels and insulin sensitivity are differently associated with biomarkers of cardiovascular disease in active acromegaly
Context: Acromegaly is characterized by GH excess and insulin resistance. It is not known which of these disorders is responsible for the increased atherogenic risk in these patients. Objective: To analyse the associations ...
Increased Dihydroceramide/ceramide ratio mediated by defective expression of degs1 impairs adipocyte differentiation and function.
Adipose tissue dysfunction is an important determinant of obesity-associated, lipid-induced metabolic complications. Ceramides are well-known mediators of lipidinduced insulin resistance in peripheral organs such as muscle. ...
Effect of Feeding Acid Oils on European Seabass Fillet Lipid Composition, Oxidative Stability, Color, and Sensory Acceptance
Acid oils (AO) are fat by-products of edible oil refining with a high energetic value, being an interesting option for a more sustainable aquaculture nutrition. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the partial ...
Evaluation of Packaging Effects on the Phenolic Profile andSensory Characteristics of Extra Virgin Olive Oil During StorageUsing Liquid Chromatography Coupled with Mass Spectrometry
The health benefits of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), including improved cardiovascular health and metabolic function, are linked to its phenolic content. This study evaluated how storage duration and packaging affect the ...
Waste from Persea schiedeana Fruits as Potential Alternative for Biodiesel Production
Biodiesel is a mixture of monoalkyl esters of fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats. Agricultural residues are a potential source of raw materials for generating biofuels. The aim of this research was to ...
Aspectos nutricionales de la dieta mediterránea
Se realiza un anàlisis de los orígenes de la dieta mediterránea, los cuales se remontan a las grandes culturas clásicas de la Edad Antigua. Además, se describe lo que hoy en dia cabe entender como dieta mediterránea y se ...
Optimizing the Malaxation Conditions to Produce an Arbequina EVOO with High Content of Bioactive Compounds
To meet the growing demand for high-quality extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) with healthpromoting properties and pleasant sensory properties, studies are needed to establish optimal production parameters. Bioactive components ...
Characterization of a response element for peroxisomal proliferator activated receptor (PPRE) in human muscle-type carnitine palmitoyltransferase I
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) play a key role in lipid metabolism by regulating the transcription of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation. This study identifies and characterizes a functional ...
Traceability, Authenticity and Sustainability of Cocoa and Chocolate Products: a Challenge for the Chocolate Industry
Cocoa beans, the seeds of the tree Theobroma cacao L., are the key raw material for chocolate production that implies an extensive post-harvest process. Chocolate properties can vary depending on cocoa origin, composition ...
Association between both total baseline urinary and dietary polyphenols and substantial physical performance decline risk in older adults: A 9-year follow-up of the InCHIANTI study
Importance: The decline in physical performance that occurs in many older subjects is a strong predictor of falls, hospitalization, institutionalization and mortality. Polyphenols are bioactive compounds that may play a ...
High hydrostatic pressure enhances the formation of oleocanthal and oleacein in 'Arbequina' olive fruit
<p><span style="color:rgb( 46 , 46 , 46 )">During olive oil production, the activity of endogenous enzymes plays a crucial role in determining the oil's phenolic composition. β-Glucosidase contributes to the formation of ...
