EFFECT OF SAPONINS ON LAMB MEAT QUALITY
… was to evaluate the effects of saponins on lamb meat quality. In the first experiment, increasing levels of saponins from Quillaja saponaria L. were supplemented to lambs to evaluate their effects on fatty acid composition and cholesterol content in the muscle longissimus dorsi. In the …

Alternative Feeding Resources of Mediterranean Origin to Improve Lamb Meat and Pork Quality
… which are of Mediterranean origin used in lamb and pig production, on meat quality. In the first and second experiments, the lambs were grouped into three to receive different dietary treatments: a barley-based concentrate diet, or two different levels of dried citrus pulp (24% or 35%) to …

Reducing the impact of feedstuff transport by a better utilization of plant wastes for livestock: a way to improve meat quality?
… and citrus pulp (DCP)) on the quality of meat from ruminant animals (lambs and beef cattle) was investigated. The first experiment examined the response of rumen function to diets rich in phenolic compounds (i.e. tannins), which are secondary metabolites prevalent in several plant …

Identification of the metabolites responsible for colour stability from different lamb sires and elucidation of the underlying biochemical pathways : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biochemistry at Lincoln University
The browning of lamb meat colour during retail display is generally undesirable for consumers. This is especially important for the New Zealand meat industry that relies heavily on high-value, export chilled lamb products which are worth $400 – 630 million annually. The main objective of my study …

Plant secondary compounds in small ruminant feeding in stall-fed and pastoral system in the Mediterranean
… effects especially on health. Two systems of lamb meat production were investigated, namely stall-fed in Siciliy and pastoral in Morocco. In the stall-fed system, we investigated the potential of replacing barley by two locally available agro industrial by- products containing polyphenols, …

Pasture feeding impacts on lamb lipid composition and on blood plasma and cardiovascular risk factors in humans
… aimed to improve the nutritional quality of lamb by exploring and advancing current knowledge surrounding the benefits of pasture feeding for ruminants, focusing on increasing levels of omega-3 (n-3 PUFA) in lamb. The impact of diet on n-3 PUFA composition of lamb meat was evaluated using a …

Index selection in terminal sire sheep: implications for genetic improvement in a crossbreeding system
… the UK sheep industry, where over 70% of market lambs have terminal sire breeding. Thus, selection focusing on terminal sires will translate to changes in the entire industry. Consumers perceive lamb meat as fatty and demand for it has decreased. A lean growth index was developed for terminal …
