Fat content and fatty acid composition of South African Wagyu beef
… are of the F1 generation. This may affect the fat content and fatty acid (FA) composition of South African Wagyu beef. The fat content and the FA composition are influenced by many factors. Wagyu cattle are known to be genetically predisposed to produce vast amounts of marbling or intramuscular …

Quantification of Fat Content and Fatty Acid Composition Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
… other disease scenarios, the measurement of fat accumulation in various organs and tissues has become a sought-after technique in clinical diagnostics and research. Especially, quantitative and non-invasive techniques which also provide images of accumulated fat throughout the body would be …

Subclinical mastitis in relation to solids-not-fat content of cow's milk
… of milk yield as well as the level of BF content of the milk. This means that in subclinical mastitis the farmer is confronted with multiple loss. He is subject to penalisation if the SNF % of his milk falls below 8.4%. In addition, whatever the level of the SNF % of his milk, providing …

Effect of Fat Content and Food Type on Heat Transfer during Microwave Heating
… microwave cooking. Recent research showed that fat content in muscle food plays an important role in microbial inactivation by increasing the inactivation level with an increase in the fat level. It was also demonstrated that muscle food heats up differently than a vegetable food product. …

Effect of Evaporative Cooling, Fat Content and Food Type on Pathogen Survival during Microwave Cooking
… by their own internal properties such as ionic content, moisture level and specific heat, work must be done to further master control of such properties so microwave cooking can be more predictable, controlled and ensure control pathogens. This study concentrated on the effect of fat content, …

The Impacts of Intramuscular Fat Content and Other Biochemical Attributes of Fresh Pork Loins on Sensory Characteristics
The effect that marbling, or intramuscular fat, has on sensory properties (tenderness, juiciness, flavor) and mechanical tenderness has been of interest with many food service and retail programs marketing high quality pork. Two trials were conducted to determine if marbling improves sensory …

The effects of diet varying in fat content on the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus in wistar rat offspring
… We therefore sought to ascertain how a dietary fat content in maternal diet affects foetal programming and its contribution to the pathogenesis of T2D of the offspring. Methods: Pregnant rats were randomly grouped and maintained on diets varying in fat content: 10% (Control), 20% (20F), 30% …

The texture and microstructure of mozzarella cheese as affected by fat content, EPS producing starter culture and fat replacers
… main goal of this study was to manufacture low fat mozzarella cheeses using fat replacers having similar texture and microstructure characteristics as full fat mozzarella. To achieve this goal it was essential to analyse the texture characteristics including hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, …

The effects of maternal diets, varying in fat content, on proximal hepatic and skeletal muscle insulin signalling in neonatal wistar rat offspring
… uptake. Maintenance on a gestational high fat diet may programme insulin resistance. Programming is induced by the exposure of organisms to either a stimulus or insult during foetal and/or early neonatal life and alters offspring physiology and metabolism. The aim of the present study was …

Polymorphic Variation of the DGAT1 Gene in Cal Poly Holstein and Jersey Breeds and the Correlation of Milk Fat Content, and Genetic Values
… milk production traits by having a higher milk fat content. The two nucleotide polymorphisms in exon VII (aa to gc) give rise to an MwoI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) which is used to identify the three DGAT1 genotypes (AA, AG, GG). Research has shown that the genotype AA of …

Homogenization and crystallization to improve the properties of whole milk powder for chocolate production
… is desired, to manufacture chocolate, high free fat content and control of the particle size of the milk powder. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different pressures of homogenization on whole milk powder with the crystallized lactose on free fat content and particle size, …

Photon migration in highly scattering media as a measurement technique on automated cow milking systems
… optical scattering properties the most are the fat content and the protein content. Fat in milk exists in the form of small globules in a range of diameters from under 1 μrn to as large as 20 μrn. These globules are the major contributor to the light scattering properties of the milk. Milk …

Measurement of Thermal Properties of Seafood
… from -40 to 30<sup>o</sup>C. Moisture and fat content were measured. Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were measured by a rapid transient technique using a bead thermistor probe. Specific heat and enthalpy were measured using a differential scanning calorimeter. Moisture content …

Modeling for thermal resistance of non-O157 shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli in ground beef
… media as well as in ground beef with varying fat content. There was no significant difference in the heat resistance among the strains, therefore, a cocktail of the strains was used for ground beef study. Ground beef fat content levels of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30% were used. Survival curves …

Nutritional Approaches to Increase Intramuscular Fat in Pigs
… the effects of nutrition on intramuscular fat (IMF) and pork quality. The first study evaluate if intramuscular fat content can be increased in pigs by feeding vitamin A deficient diets. This study demonstrated that there was no effect of feeding vitamin A (P > 0.05) on chemically …

Effect of ractopamine hydrochloride (Paylean®) on fresh meat and further processing characteristics of muscles from the shoulders of finishing pigs
… agonist, increases muscle mass and decreases fat deposition in the pig. Though RAC has been extensively studied, to date no experiments have quantified its effect on the pork shoulder. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to characterize the effects of RAC on fresh meat and further …

Phenotyping Ethnic Differences in Body Fat Depots
… South Asians (SA) present an unfavourable body fat phenotype, which includes a pattern of elevated visceral adipose tissue (VAT), and liver fat content; depots strongly associated with the progression of metabolic dysregulation. However, there are a limited number of studies examining body fat …

Comparison of moderate-and low-fat reduced energy diets on weight loss and body composition in post-menopausal women with android obesity
… this study was to determine if manipulation of fat content of a 1200 kcal weight reduction diet had an effect on total weight loss and fat distribution as measured by body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). Twenty-eight abdominally obese, postmenopausal females consumed either a 1200 …
