Insects as sustainable source of feed for poultry
Abstract Production of animal feed in an environmentally effective way is the key point for the development of sustainable agriculture. The livestock farming industry is increasing globally to meet the demand for animal protein, resulting in higher food–feed competition while rationing animal diets. In addition, it creates increased pressure on natural

Abstract The long‐chain n‐3 fatty acids (FA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have human health benefits, and many experiments have investigated the ability of plant n‐3 sources to enrich n‐3 FA in broiler meat. A meta‐regression was conducted to evaluate the relationship between dietary 18‐carbon n‐3 FA content and the ...

Direct Ambient Mass Spectrometry for Food, Beverage, and Agricultural Sample Analysis and Research
ABSTRACT Ambient and direct mass spectrometry (MS) methods are becoming increasingly used for the rapid analysis of food, beverage and agricultural samples. Novel ionization approaches combined with targeted, or untargeted workflows provide analytical outcomes within a greatly reduced time period compared to traditional separation science coupled with ...
