In order to explore the molecular mechanism of the effect of feeding regimes on lamb flavor, biceps femoris muscle samples from pasture-fed groups (PF) and concentrate-fed groups (CF) were chosen, and tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling combined with mass spectrometry (MS) was performed to find associations between flavor indicators and proteome profiles. The content and composition of amino acids and volatile flavor substances were better in the PF compared to the CF, with higher levels of some beneficial flavor components such as Arg, Pro Pentanal, Heptanal, Octanal, 1-octen-3-ol and 2,3-Octanedione. About 82 differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) were identified. The Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis indicated that the pathways that may be associated with lamb flavor are focused on amino acid anabolism. These results provide a basis for further understanding of the molecular mechanisms of proteins in meat flavor regulation.

Many myopathies in horses can be managed by exercise regimes and dietary modifications. This includes modifying the amount of nonstructural carbohydrate, fat, amino acids, vitamin E, and selenium based on the horse's specific myopathy, metabolic status, exercise program, and optimal body weight. Because dietary recommendations differ substantially between myopathies, it is imperative to establish a specific diagnosis.

Background: The Mediterranean diet (MedD) exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects that are beneficial in autoimmune thyroid diseases (ATD). Recently, a gluten-free diet (GFD) has been proposed for non-celiac patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), but its usefulness is under debate. The present pilot study evaluates the effects of these two dietary regimes, with a focus on redox homeostasis, in HT.

The large-scale insect rearing sector is expected to grow significantly in the next few years, with L. (black soldier fly, BSF) playing a pivotal role. As with traditional livestock, it is essential to improve and ensure BSF welfare.

This study assessed the effects of fenobucarb (F) (1%, 10%, and 20% of the LC-96h value) on the brain cholinesterase (AChE) activity, food intake (FI), feed conversion rate (FCR), and growth of silver barb (, Bleeker, 1849). It also assessed the AChE inhibition levels that cause the abnormal swimming, behavior, and mortality of silver barb and how the feeding regime affects the recovery rate of the AChE activity. The results showed that the brain AChE inhibition increased with the F concentrations.

Understanding and optimizing rearing conditions for dragonfly larvae is crucial for ecological research and conservation efforts, yet optimal rearing conditions and general rearing practices are lacking. In this study, we investigated the effect of temperature, amount of oxygen in water, presence of (artificial) plants, and age of eggs on hatchability, survival, and development of dragonfly larvae using the model species Sympetrum striolatum. We conducted three independent experiments and assessed variability between egg clutches of individual females, as well as the occurrence of cannibalism among larvae.
