Real-real time CO-sensitive freshness indicators, phenol red (PR) and bromothymol blue (BTB) dyes, in three-layer system using cellulose based binder was developed to determine the freshness/spoilage of chicken breast. The developed indicators were used to monitor chicken meat spoilage packaged in polyamide/polyethylene (PA/PE) pouches under air and 100% nitrogen (N) at 4 °C for 10 days. Changes in the ΔE and ΔRGB values of the indicators, CO/O gas composition of packs, and chemical (TVBN, pH, trimethylamine), microbial, and sensory quality parameters of chicken breast meat were analyzed. The visual color change in the PR-based indicator was insufficient for the consumer to detect the spoilage with the naked eye in both simulation and food trial. However, three stage color (dark blue-turquoise-green) change was occurred in BTB-based indicators, and the color transition in the spoilage level of CO (10-15% (v/v)) is supported by the physicochemical, microbiological and sensorial properties of the chicken breast. The shelf life of chicken breast under air was limited to 4 days, while the shelf life under 100% N was 6 days which are supported by the visual color change of BTB indicator. The BTB-based indicators were found promising on a real packaging conditions and could be adapted to industrial scale for monitoring real-time freshness/spoilage of poultry, ensuring food safety.

Genetic differences typically cause differences in the structure and function of proteins in meat. The objective of this research was to examine the biochemical characteristics and functional behavior of proteins in fresh composite meat from Thai Ligor hybrid chicken (LC) and commercial broiler chicken (BC). The composite meat samples, which comprise minced breast and thigh without skin from 20 chicken carcasses in a 1:1 (/) ratio, were randomly selected for analysis using the completely randomized design (CRD).

Valine deficiency has a greater impact on broiler growth and bone health than isoleucine deficiency.

Valine and isoleucine are not only two of the indispensable amino acids (AAs) in chickens but also have special mechanisms with leucine within the branched-chain AA (BCAA) category. Therefore, we aimed to investigate how valine or isoleucine deficiency could specifically affect growth performance in broilers through various analyses. A total of 252 seven-day (d)-old male Cobb 500 broilers were allotted to three treatments with six replicates and reared until d 21.

The use of exogenous phytase and vitamin D metabolites such as 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-D) for poultry is well consolidated, but the potential for additive effects when supplementing both requires further investigation. This study investigated possible interactions between supplementation of 25-OH-D and high doses of phytase for broilers fed Ca- and P-deficient diets. A total of 1 200 one-d-old male broiler chicks were randomly allocated from one of four dietary treatments in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement: 600 or 2 000 phytase units (FYT)/kg and with or without the inclusion of 25-OH-D at 69 µg/kg, with 12 replicates of 25 broilers each.

Hydrogels based on supramolecular assemblies offer attractive features for biomedical applications including injectability or versatile combinations of various building blocks. We here investigate a system combining benzenetrispeptides (BTP), which forms supramolecular fibers, with polymer polyethylene oxide (PEO) forming a dense hydrophilic shell around the fibers. Hydrogels are created through the addition of a bifunctional crosslinker (CL).
