The increasing number of marketable fish being supplied from aquaculture is a response to the increasing demand for healthy
food and is filling the gap left by depleting natural fish stocks. Little is known about the awareness and perception of the
consumer in terms of farmed fish versus fish from capture fisheries. The consumer's subjective point of view is of overriding
importance for the production system and product acceptance as well as for future market success. In this paper consumer perception
in Belgium is explored and compared against scientific evidence of farmed versus wild fish. Primary data were collected through
a consumer survey (April 2003) and focus group discussions (May 2004) with Belgian consumers. The majority of the consumer
sample reported no perceived differences between farmed versus wild fish. However, mean perception scores were slightly in
favour of wild fish on the attributes taste, health and nutritious value, in particular among consumers aged 55 years and
older. The availability of farmed fish was perceived to be better than that of wild fish, while the consumer's perception
of safety did not differ between farmed and wild fish. The focus group discussions indicated that consumers’ opinions and
beliefs about farmed fish are mainly based on emotion and image transfer from intensive terrestrial livestock production rather
than on awareness and factual knowledge of aquaculture.

Strains of fungi from different origins, including isolates of the natural microflora of barley, were screened for their ability to modify barley starchy endosperm cell walls in situ. In an initial step, fungi were selected that degrade the major component of the cell walls, that is, (1-->3),(1-->4)-beta-D-glucan, in vitro on artificial media. Nongerminating, sterilized barley, obtained by gamma-irradiation, was inoculated with such fungi and subjected to solid state fermentation under conditions resembling those of a traditional malting process. For some strains of fungi, a clear correlation between the production of endo-beta-glucanase and the friability of the treated kernels was found. Image analysis of Calcofluor stained longitudinal sections of barley kernels fermented with the endo-beta-glucanase producing strains showed that starchy endosperm cell walls were modified. As malt quality is inversely related to its (1-->3),(1-->4)-beta-D-glucan content, the selected strains have high potential to be used as starter cultures during malt production, contributing to the processing quality of the final product. 相似文献

Field experiments were carried out to study the effects of different soil management practices on the water balance, precipitation use efficiency (PUE), and crop yield (i.e. winter wheat and peanut) on a loess soil near Luoyang (east edge of the Chinese Loess Plateau, Henan Province, China). Field plots were set up in 1999 including following soil management practices: subsoiling with mulch (SS), no-till with mulch (NT), reduced tillage (RT), two crops per year (i.e. winter wheat and peanut, TC), and a conventional tillage control (CT). The field plots were equipped to monitor all components of the soil–water balance except evapotranspiration, which was computed by solving the water balance equation. The results showed that although soil management had smaller influence on the magnitude of the water balance components than did precipitation variations, small influences of the applied soil management practices on water conservation during the fallow period can greatly affect winter wheat yield. SS increased consistently precipitation storage efficiency (PSE) and PUE over the 5 years compared to CT except during the wettest year. NT also had a noticeable effect on postharvest water storage during the fallow period; however, the influence on yield of NT depended on the amount of precipitation. TC lowered the winter wheat yield mainly due to the unfavorable soil moisture conditions after growing peanut in summer; however, the harvested peanut gained an extra profit for the local farmer. No matter which kind of soil management practices was adapted, PSE never exceeded 41.6%, which was primarily attributed to high evapotranspiration. From data of five consecutive agricultural years between 2000 and 2005, it could be concluded that SS resulted in the highest PSE, PUE and crop yield. TC also showed promising results considering the economic value of the second crop. NT performed slightly less as SS. CT gave intermediate results, whereas RT was the worst alternative. 相似文献

A novel method for the rapid screening of antioxidant efficacy and oxidative stability in food and feed matrices has been developed. The analyses are described as free radical generation (FRG) assays. The new procedure combines the use of azo-initiators with analytical equipment that is widely used for antioxidant research such as the oxidative stability instrument and the oxygen bomb. The use of initiators instead of high temperatures as a driving force to increase the rate of oxidation improves the correlation between the accelerated screening of foodstuffs and real shelf life. The improved correlation can be mainly explained by the fact that food products are analyzed in their original status, maintaining all interfacial phenomena of the food matrix. Furthermore, the lower temperature of analysis reduces differences between the reaction kinetics of the assay and those of the oxidation during actual shelf life. Consequently, the correlation between the accelerated analysis and shelf life is improved, particularly when compared to accelerated oxidation at high temperatures. The FRG assays could be used successfully to evaluate the efficacy of natural antioxidants in heat-sensitive food products such as emulsions and meat products. A good correlation was observed between the accelerated tests and the oxidation parameters obtained from standard shelf-life evaluation. It was possible to successfully compare the efficacy of several antioxidants and to predict shelf life for these heat-sensitive food matrices. 相似文献

Tillage is an important agricultural practice, influencing the physical, chemical and biological soil characteristics. In this paper the influence of various tillage systems combined with or without a cover crop under different nitrogen fertilization levels on silage maize yield and soil fertility was investigated. Based on a field trial in Bottelare (Belgium), during the period 2007–2015, it was concluded that for each tillage system higher nitrogen levels resulted in a higher yield. In addition, the highest yield was achieved for the conventional tillage system, the yield gain for mouldboard ploughing varied between 13% (2015) and 71% (2012) compared to zero tillage. In case reduced tillage was adopted, the yield loss compared to mouldboard ploughing varied between 6% (2013 and 2015) and 24% (2012). Furthermore, it seemed that the accumulated temperature during the growing season and rainfall around flowering were decisive in determining maize yield. Additionally, rainfall in the period 60 days post sowing was significantly negatively correlated with the yield from the zero tillage plots, whereas in case tillage was adopted no correlations with rainfall 60 days post sowing were detected. Concerning the soil organic carbon content and the amount of earthworms, no clear trends could be observed. Zero tillage resulted in high weed pressure and caused soil compaction. So, in this trial, under humid conditions, the less labor intensive zero tillage system did not result in competitive maize yields. In conclusion, reduced tillage methods offer opportunities for maize cultivation in Belgium. This method of farming resulted in a lower yield, however, the difference with mouldboard ploughing was not significant. Therefore, adopting a reduced tillage system can be seen as a valid alternative for ploughing as this tillage system ensures a sustainable environment. 相似文献

The absorption, distribution and elimination of carnosic acid, the main antioxidant found in rosemary was studied, in vivo, in rats. Therefore, carnosic acid was administrated in a single dose, intravenously (20.5 ± 4.2 mg/kg) and orally (64.3 ± 5.8 mg/kg),
to four and nine rats, respectively. Blood samples were collected at different time points, and plasma concentrations of carnosic
acid were determined using LC-MS. Furthermore, total collection of urine and feces was done during 4 h and 24 h for the intravenous
and oral administrations, respectively. After euthanizing the rats, intestinal content, liver and muscle tissue were sampled
to determine carnosic acid concentrations. The bioavailability of carnosic acid, after 360 min, was 40.1%. Traces of carnosic
acid were found in the rats intestinal content, liver and muscle tissue of abdomen and legs. The recovery of carnosic acid
in the feces, 24 h after oral administration, was 15.6 ± 8.2%. Carnosic acid is absorbed into the bloodstream after oral administration
in rats and is therefore bioavailable. It was found that carnosic acid in vivo is present in its free form and that its main elimination route is the fecal route. 相似文献

The role of proteins in the pasting and cooking properties of non‐parboiled (npb) and parboiled (pb) rice was tested by means of a reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT) and a protease (trypsin). DTT increased the swelling power and carbohydrate leaching of flour from npb rice flour but decreased its amylose leaching. Although DTT slightly increased the Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) viscosity at the initial stages of the pasting process, it decreased RVA viscosity in the further phases of the experiment. Preincubation of flour with a trypsin decreased RVA viscosity along the whole temperature profile. Addition of DTT to the cooking water decreased water absorption and rice hardness and increased leaching of solids during cooking and stickiness of the cooked npb rice. Addition of DTT to the cooking water of flour from pb rice increased swelling power, carbohydrate leaching, and amylose leaching. Addition of DTT also increased RVA viscosity. Preincubation with trypsin had a similar effect but the changes were less pronounced. Addition of DTT increased stickiness of cooked pb rice and increased water absorption and leaching of solids during cooking. Taken together, the results provide evidence for the existence of a protein barrier affecting starch swelling, rheological, and cooking properties of both npb and pb rice. 相似文献
