Summary: In Uruguay and some other countries in the region, there is a shift towards feeding grains to cattle for faster beef production. This study compared the meat quality of pasture-fed and concentrate-fed beef under retail refrigeration conditions. The results showed that meat from pasture-fed steers exhibited better stability and healthier fatty acid profile, making it a more desirable choice for consumers.

Summary: The study evaluated the effect of using frozen curd on the oxidative stability of buffalo Mozzarella cheese, finding that higher frozen curd content in the cheese led to lower antioxidant activity and oxidative stability. The results suggest the need for new strategies to decrease oxidative damage in cheeses produced with factors reducing oxidative stability.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the protective role of vitamin E in improving cardiotoxicity induced by cyclophosphamide in rats. The results showed that vitamin E could attenuate the elevation of cardiac markers, increase in lipid profiles, reduction in antioxidant enzyme activities, and increase in lipid peroxidation. In addition, vitamin E was found to improve the histopathological alterations caused by cyclophosphamide.

Summary: Dry-aged beef steaks showed reduced color and lipid stability compared to wet-aged counterparts during 7 days of retail display, resulting in more pronounced discoloration. Relative humidity during dry aging did not affect color and lipid stability.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the inclusion of mango peel ethanolic extract (MPEE) as an antioxidant in quail diets containing two different lipid sources. The study found that the types of oil and MPEE levels did not have a significant impact on quail performance. However, the inclusion of 1000 mg/kg of MPEE resulted in an increase in breast meat yield. For meat lipid stability, there was an interaction between packaging type and storage time, and the addition of 1000 mg/kg of MPEE improved lipid stability, allowing for the use of common packaging for up to 120 days of storage.

Summary: Synthetic antioxidant food additives like BHA, BHT and TBHQ are facing challenges due to negative consumer perception, prompting food manufacturers to seek safer natural alternatives. Terpenoids and polyphenols, widely distributed in fruits and vegetables, show broad antioxidant effects and have the potential to replace synthetic antioxidants in food preservation, particularly in preventing lipid oxidation in high fat-containing foods.

Summary: This study used PLSR to explore the evolution of hazelnut oil during accelerated oxidation, finding that as oxidation progressed, antioxidant capacity decreased, and the contents of tocopherols, squalene, and other substances decreased, which were negatively correlated with the oil's oxidative degree. Carotenoids and tocopherols play important roles in preventing hazelnut oil oxidation.

Summary: This study assessed the effects of licorice extract on the growth performance, carcass yield, blood indices, and antioxidative capacity in broilers. The results showed that supplementation of licorice extract improved broiler chicks' weight gain and feed conversion ratio. Additionally, it had positive effects on the broilers' physiological status.

Summary: This study investigated the antioxidant properties of vine tea extracts and their inhibitory effect on lipid oxidation, finding that the extracts effectively scavenged radicals and inhibited lipid oxidation, especially those from young leaf samples. Compared to BHT, vine tea extracts significantly inhibited the increase of POV and TBARS in sunflower and rapeseed oils, suggesting their potential as natural antioxidants for extending the shelf life of food products.

Summary: Resistant bacterium K. aerogenes X has the potential to be used as a natural material for the bioremediation of soil metalloid pollution. It exhibits high tolerance and oxidation ability towards antimonite [Sb (III)]. The resistance mechanisms of K. aerogenes X involve oxidative stress, EPS restriction, and cell damage. It can oxidize Sb(III) through intracellular oxidation and extracellular metabolism. The identification of Sb resistance genes and potential oxidation gene arsH further supports its potential for bioremediation.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of antioxidants, storage temperature, packaging materials, and storage period on medium shelled walnut kernels of the Hamdan variety. The walnut kernels underwent mechanical drying at 40 degrees C and were treated with a combination of antioxidants BHA and BHT at a concentration of 0.15% each. The samples were stored for 9 months at ambient and refrigerated conditions in laminates and HDPE packaging materials with and without vacuum. The results showed that antioxidant-treated samples had higher iodine value and lower free fatty acid and peroxide value compared to untreated kernels. Walnut kernels stored at 4 degrees C in vacuum laminates exhibited better chemical properties compared to other packaging materials.

Summary: The study found that grape extract had positive effects on the growth trends of weaning piglets, improving digestibility of selected nutrients and potentially reducing the need for antibiotics. While there were no significant changes in animal performance, GE showed comparable or even better levels of improvement in certain aspects compared to antibiotic treatment.
