Nexus of Whey Proteins, Gut Dysbiosis, and Colonic Health
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.Whey proteins possess antimicrobial and prebiotic properties that modulate gut microbiota by promoting beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium while suppressing pathogens. This modulation enhances short‐chain fatty acid production and strengthens intestinal barrier integrity, potentially alleviating dysbiosis‐related conditions such as colitis and ...

Immunocastration and its effects on carcass and meat traits of male pigs
Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2018 To compose the experiment, 160 male Topgen pigs - 80 surgically castrated (treatment 1) and 80 immunocastrated (treatment 2) - were randomly selected from a commercial swine farm at the moment of slaughter.

Molecular characterisation of QTLs controlling fatness in pigs
, 2002 This thesis deals with the identification of genes controlling intramuscular fat and backfat thickness. Markers linked to quantitative trait loci (QTL) for these traits in the cross between Meishan x Large White breeds will lead to the identification of ...

Skeletal muscle expression analysis of fat metabolism genes in pig
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010 Fat content and backfat thickness are important polygenic parameters influencing meat quality and carcass traits in pigs. Up to now, there is a lack of knowledge on the expression level of the genes encoding for enzymes involved in fatty acid metabolism ...

Journal of Animal Science and TechnologyCurrently, in pork auctions in Korea, only carcass weight and backfat thickness provide information on meat quantity, while the production volume of primal cuts and fat contents remains largely unknown. This study aims to predict the production of primal

AnimalBackfat thickness, a key selection trait in pig-breeding programmes, has traditionally been measured as a homogeneous layer. However, backfat is anatomically structured into three distinct layers, and each layer likely contributes differently to carcass ...

Identification of genomic regions associated with backfat thickness in synthetic cattle. [PDF]
, 2010 Canchim is a synthetic beef cattle developed in Brazil which have good growth potential and tropical adaptation but suboptimal fat deposition. There are genomic regions associated with fat deposition already described, among them the centromeric region ...
