Mechanistic Studies of a Skatole-Forming Glycyl Radical Enzyme Suggest Reaction Initiation via Hydrogen Atom Transfer

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2022
Gut microbial decarboxylation of amino acid-derived arylacetates is a chemically challenging enzymatic transformation which generates small molecules that impact host physiology.

Direct Fluoroformylation of the C3-Position of Indoles with 2,4-Dinitro(trifluoromethoxy)benzene as Fluorocarbonyl Source. [PDF]

open access: yesChemistryOpen
Indoles bearing acyl fluoride moieties are generally obtained by dehydroxyfluorination of carboxylic acids or by fluoroformylation mediated by palladium catalysts with the disadvantage of requiring toxic reagents or very high pressures. We describe herein the direct, metal‐free, and rapid C3‐fluoroformylation of electro‐enriched indoles using ...

Can sensory boar taint levels be explained by fatty acid composition and emitted volatile organic compounds in addition to androstenone and skatole content?

open access: yesMeat Science, 2022
This study aimed at understanding which molecules were responsible for the differences existing in boar taint sensory evaluation. The latter was therefore linked to the results of skatole and androstenone chemical analyses, fatty acid composition and VOC

Skatole metabolites in urine as a biological marker of pigs with enhanced hepatic metabolism

open access: yesAnimal, 2016
Boar taint is a quality defect in meat, related to accumulation of skatole and androstenone in male pigs. The levels of skatole and its main metabolites in plasma and urine samples were measured with a validated liquid chromatography-MS method and ...

Feeding with chicory roots reduces the amount of odorous compounds in colon and rectal contents of pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Sixteen pigs (eight entire males and eight females) were given individually two diets, control and control added 25% chopped chicory roots for 2 months before slaughter.

Single amino acid residue mediates reciprocal specificity in two mosquito odorant receptors

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The southern house mosquito, Culex quinquefasciatus, utilizes two odorant receptors, CquiOR10 and CquiOR2, narrowly tuned to oviposition attractants and well conserved among mosquito species.

In vivo effect of dried chicory root (Cichorium intybus L.) on xenobiotica metabolising cytochrome P450 enzymes in porcine liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are widely studied for their involvement in metabolism of drugs and endogenous compounds. In porcine liver, CYP1A2,2Aand 2E1 are important for the metabolism of skatole.Feeding chicory roots to pigs is known to decrease the ...

High throughput method for quantifying androstenone and skatole in adipose tissue from uncastrated male pigs by laser diode thermal desorption-tandem mass spectrometry

open access: yesFood chemistry: X, 2021
Highlights • Boar taint is mainly caused by the compounds, skatole and androstenone.• Analysis for at-line industrial measurement of boar taint in pigs.• High throughput quantitative analysis of skatole and androstenone.• Low cost, robust and selective ...

Can Hydrolysable Tannins in Diet of Entire Male Pigs Affect Carcass, Pork Quality Traits, Amino and Fatty Acid Profiles, and Boar Taint, Skatole and Androstenone Levels?

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Simple Summary The increasing societal concern in animal welfare has changed centuries-old practices in pig breeding. One of the most debatable is the surgical castration of piglets commonly used in many European countries primarily performed to avoid ...
