Weight and season affects androstenone and skatole occurrence in entire male pigs in organic pig production

Animal, 2015
To investigate the extent to which the level of androstenone and skatole decreases with a decrease in live weight and/or age at slaughter of entire male pigs produced under organic standards, 1174 entire male pigs were raised in parallel in five organic ...

Raising Entire Males for Pork Production: Impact of Androstenone on Behaviour and Meat Quality [PDF]

, 2021
Castration of male piglets reduces aggressive and sexual behaviours and diminishes boar taint, a meat quality issue caused by the hormone androstenone. This research investigated the ability to predict fat and plasma androstenone development using early ...

Pastinaca sativa L.: Nutritional Composition, Phytochemistry, and Pharmacological Properties Supporting Its Potential as a Functional Food and Therapeutic Agent

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Food‐grade processing of Pastinaca sativa (parsnip) converts a nutrient‐rich plant matrix (dietary fiber, fructans, phenolics) through washing/slicing/enzymatic treatment and ingredient preparation into functional food ingredients, including fiber concentrates, antioxidant‐rich fractions, and parsnip powders/extracts.

The pig CYP2E1 promoter is activated by COUP-TF1 and HNF-1 and is inhibited by androstenone [PDF]

, 2004
Functional analysis of the pig cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) promoter identified two major activating elements. One corresponded to the hepatic nuclear factor 1 (HNF-1) consensus binding sequence at nucleotides -128/-98 and the other was located in the ...

A selective immunization procedure against 5α-androstenone in boars [PDF]

, 1982
An auto-immunization procedure selective for boar 5α-androstenone is described. Immunization of boars with a conjugate of androstenone and bovine serum albumin as a carrier protein significantly reduced the accumulation of androstenone in adipose tissue ...

Asian low-androstenone haplotype on pig chromosome 6 does not unfavorably affect production and reproduction traits. [PDF]

, 2014
European pigs that carry Asian haplotypes of a 1.94-Mbp region on pig chromosome 6 have lower levels of androstenone, one of the two main compounds causing boar taint.

Influence of the inflammatory status of entire male pigs on their pubertal development and fat androstenone

Animal, 2017
Androstenone production increases during pubertal development and plays a major role in boar taint. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of a subclinical inflammation on the pubertal development of boars and hence on fat ...

In vitro assessment of the effectiveness of non-nutritive sorbent materials as binding agents for boar taint compounds

Animal, 2011
Boar taint, an off-odor and an off-flavor in the meat from some uncastrated male pigs, is due to high levels of the testicular steroid hormone, androstenone, and the indole, skatole.
