SCREENING AND SPONTANEOUS MUTATION OF PICKLE-DERIVED LACTOBACILLUS PLANTARUM WITH OVERPRODUCTION OF RIBOFLAVIN, RELATED MECHANISM, AND FOOD APPLICATION

Screening and Spontaneous Mutation of Pickle-Derived Lactobacillus plantarum with Overproduction of Riboflavin, Related Mechanism, and Food Application

Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, plays an important role in human cell metabolism and participates in various SHINY COAT redox reactions and in energy utilization.In this study, 90 riboflavin-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were screened out from pickle juices.The yields of riboflavin in these LAB were about 0.096−0.700 mg/L, and on

Applied Research Note: Evaluation of head removal following euthanasia by cervical dislocation on latency insensibility and death on broiler welfare

SUMMARY: The impact of head removal during cervical dislocation on bird welfare is currently unknown.In this study, broilers (n = 180; 35, 44, and 50 d of age) were assigned either euthanasia by cervical dislocation with a head removal (HR) or cervical dislocation only (CDO) treatment to evaluate their behavioral and reflexive response.The HR treat
