Scientific basis on the quality changes of traditional keema will boost and sustain meat production and utilization in buffalo abundant countries. A programme was undertaken to determine the influence of age and gender on the quality of buffalo meat keema at refrigerator storage (4 ± 1 °C). Buffalo meat keema was evaluated by analyzing the changes in physicochemical, microbiological and sensory attributes. The product characteristics and acceptability of keema were better in spent buffalo group than young male group. The values of pH, TBARS, total aerobic mesophils, coliforms, Lactobacillus, Staphylococcus aureus, anaerobic and psychrophilic counts of buffalo meat keema increased but appearance, flavour, juiciness, tenderness, connective tissue residue and overall acceptability scores decreased with progressing refrigerated storage. The shelf life of refrigerated buffalo meat keema was 18 days with an overall acceptability score ranging from extremely acceptable to moderately acceptable.

Article Synopsis
  • Cryptosporidium and Giardia are common protozoan parasites affecting the digestive systems of various animals, leading to economic losses in animal breeding and posing public health risks.
  • Recent studies identified numerous genotypes of these pathogens, prompting research into their prevalence in water buffaloes in Türkiye, where previous research was limited.
  • The study found Cryptosporidium spp. in 3.92% and Giardia duodenalis in 0.98% of water buffalo stool samples, with C. ryanae being the most prevalent species, showing high genetic similarity among samples.

Paratuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by subspecies (MAP). Typically, ruminant animals including cattle, buffalo, goats, and sheep are infected with MAP. Animals get infected with MAP in a number of ways, such as by eating or drinking contaminated food or water, or by nursing from an infected mother who may have contaminated teats or directly shed the organism in milk or colostrum.

A detailed understanding of the precise regulatory mechanisms governing buffalo skeletal muscle is crucial for improving meat quality and yield. Proper skeletal muscle fate decisions necessitate the accurate regulation of key enhancers. This study screened nine potential enhancers linked to muscle development by analysing ATAC-seq data from buffalo myoblasts during the proliferative and differentiative phases.

The quality and nutritional value of meat are significantly attributed to the composition of fatty acids (FAs). This investigation used gas chromatography to assess FAs in (LL), (SM), and subcutaneous fat (SC) tissues of 18 heifers feeding low (15%, LCEP) or high (30%, HCEP) cassava bioethanol by-products (CEP) and 0 (CPO-0), 2 (CPO-2), or 4% (CPO-4) crude palm oil (CPO). The experimental diet was provided at 1.
