Suckling or non‐suckling? Sensory characterization of commercialized lamb meat according to feeding [PDF]
Food Science and Nutrition, 2023 AbstractConsumption of meat from suckling lambs is typical in some regions. However, sensory differences between meat from suckling and non‐suckling lambs are barely described in previous studies. The objectives of the present study were (a) to develop a method to describe the sensory characteristics of lamb meat, including the development of sensory ...

Dietary L-Citrulline Supplementation Promotes Rumen Development and Modulates the Microbiota–Metabolome Axis in Suckling Hu Lambs [PDF]
AnimalsThe suckling phase is the critical window for rumen functional maturation, yet amino-acid-based interventions tailored to this stage remain scarce. L-citrulline (L-cit) bypasses hepatic first-pass metabolism, is converted to L-arginine peripherally, and ...
