Essential Metals and Trace Elements in Cereals and Their Derivatives Commercialized and Consumed in Cape Verde

Carmen Rubio-Armendariz et al.

Summary: Cereals and their derivatives were analyzed for elemental content, and it was found that corn gofio, wheat, and wheat flour had high levels of potassium, magnesium, and iron. Negative correlations were observed between molybdenum and sodium, as well as between sodium and zinc, indicating potential interference between these elements. The consumption of wheat was found to provide notable contributions of manganese, iron, magnesium, and molybdenum. Therefore, the consumption of different cereals and their derivatives should be promoted.

A comparative analysis of carcass and meat traits, and rumen bacteria between Chinese Mongolian sheep and Dorper x Chinese Mongolian crossbred sheep

Jinzhu Xiang et al.

Summary: This study compared the carcass traits, rumen bacterial communities, and meat nutritional qualities between Chinese Mongolian sheep (MS) and Dorper x Chinese Mongolian crossbred sheep (DS). DS showed a faster growth rate and better carcass traits but lower meat nutritional quality. The differential rumen bacterial compositions were associated with the differences in carcass traits and meat nutritional composition.

Rumen bacteria and meat fatty acid composition of Sunit sheep reared under different feeding regimens in China

Bohui Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that sheep raised on pasture feeding had greater rumen bacteria diversity, higher levels of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in meat, and positive correlation between the abundance of Butyrivibrio_2 and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) contents. Grazing may improve rumen bacteria diversity and increase beneficial fatty acid content in sheep meat.

Untargeted and Targeted Metabolomics Profiling of Muscle Reveals Enhanced Meat Quality in Artificial Pasture Grazing Tan Lambs via Rescheduling the Rumen Bacterial Community

Bing Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the meat metabolome of Tan lamb and rumen bacterial community under different feeding regimes, revealing that artificial pasture grazing led to changes in amino acid and fatty acid composition in the muscle, resulting in healthier lamb meat products.

Processing index of barley grain and dietary undigested neutral detergent fiber concentration affected chewing behavior, ruminal pH, and total tract nutrient digestibility of heifers fed a high-grain diet

Tao Ran et al.

Summary: The study found that increasing dietary uNDF concentration is an effective strategy to improve ruminal pH status in finishing cattle, regardless of the extent of grain processing. However, altering the extent of barley processing did not reduce the risk of ruminal acidosis.

The effect of substitution of mixed grass hay with Urtica cannabina hay and/or Leymus chinensis hay on blood biochemical profile, carcass traits, and intramuscular fatty acid composition in finishing lambs

X. Q. Zhang et al.

Summary: The study showed that substituting mixed grass hay with Urtica cannabina hay and/or Leymus chinensis hay as lamb feed can improve blood metabolism, reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, and decrease saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids while increasing polyunsaturated fatty acids in lamb meat.

The Effect of Increasing Neutral Detergent Fiber Level through Different Fiber Feed Ingredients throughout the Gestation of Sows

Baoming Shi et al.

Summary: This study explored the impact of adding different fiber sources to the diet of pregnant sows, finding that corn gluten feed significantly improved sow digestibility and piglet body weight. In addition to increasing piglet weaning weight, it also improved sow weight, weight gain, and back fat thickness, influencing their blood biochemical parameters. Different fiber sources had varying effects on nutrient digestibility, with corn gluten feed showing an increase in the digestibility of NDF and ADF.

Metagenomic Sequencing Reveals that High-Grain Feeding Alters the Composition and Metabolism of Cecal Microbiota and Induces Cecal Mucosal Injury in Sheep

Fei Xie et al.

Summary: The study revealed that a high-grain diet induced changes in the microbial fermentation pattern of the cecum in sheep, leading to an increase in acetate and butyrate producers over time. Additionally, alterations in key enzymes associated with mucosal inflammatory responses were observed.

Flavor and Metabolite Profiles of Meat, Meat Substitutes, and Traditional Plant-Based High-Protein Food Products Available in Australia

Kornelia Kaczmarska et al.

Summary: The demand for plant-based proteins and food products is increasing globally due to population growth and consumer preference for sustainable and healthier diets. A study comparing flavor compounds in grilled meat and plant-based foods found that plant-based products had a greater diversity and higher concentrations of flavor volatiles. However, both meat and plant-based foods contained a range of metabolites, including amino acids, peptides, nucleotides, and flavonoids.

Dietary Energy Levels Affect Carbohydrate Metabolism-Related Bacteria and Improve Meat Quality in the Longissimus Thoracis Muscle of Yak (Bos grunniens)

Mei Du et al.

Summary: High dietary energy levels can improve meat quality in yak LT muscle by increasing the abundance of ruminal amylolytic bacteria, providing substrates for fatty acid synthesis. Methionine, aspartic acid, and glycine levels were higher in the low energy group, while glutamic acid levels were higher in the medium energy group.
