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.

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

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

Environmental concerns and rapidly decreasing phosphorus (P) resources caused a renewed interest in improving soil P tests for a more efficient P fertilization. This led to the development of better P fertilizer recommendation systems for major arable crops and grass. Nevertheless, these P fertilizer recommendation systems seem to fail for intensive vegetable crops, with often a very short growing season and limited rooting system. This leads to low P use efficiencies in the horticultural sector. In order to address this problem we set up a study to answer following questions: (1) which soil P test predicts the plant available P content for intensive vegetable crops the best and (2) can new insights, such as combining different soil P tests, improve P fertilizer recommendations for intensive vegetable crops? To this end, bulk samples of 41 soils with very different P status (based on ammonium lactate extractable P) were collected. The plant available P content of these soils was determined using six commonly used soil P tests (P‐CaCl2, P‐water, P‐Olsen, P‐acetate, P‐lactate, and P‐oxalate) and a P fertilizer pot experiment with endive (a very P sensitive vegetable crop) was conducted. Six pots of each soil were planted with endive. Three of these pots received no P fertilization (0P) and three pots received ammonium polyphosphate equivalent to 24 kg P ha?1 (24P). All other factors were kept constant. Relative crop yield of the 0P fertilized plants compared to the 24P fertilized plants was determined. Plotting these relative yields against the P status of the soil per soil P test allowed to fit a Mitscherlich curve through the data. Also the combination of two different soil P tests to predict the relative yield with a Mitscherlich equation was evaluated. The coefficients of variation of the soil P tests, the R2 values and the relative standard errors of the parameter estimates revealed that P‐acetate and P‐water predicted the relative yield of the 0P plants the best and that combining two different soil P tests gave no extra predictive power. This finding may form the basis for the development of a new P fertilizer recommendation system for intensive vegetable crops, leading to an improved P use efficiency in horticulture. In order to develop this new system more data relating soil P test values with RY of intensive vegetable crops should be collected. 相似文献

Manipulating the N release from high-N crop residues by simultaneous mixing of these residues with organic biological waste (OBW) materials seems to be a possible method to reduce NO3– leaching. The aim of this study was to examine whether the incorporation of OBW materials together with a high-N crop residue (celery) had also an effect on N2O emission from horticultural soil under short-term and optimised laboratory conditions. A sandy loam soil and celery residues were mixed with different OBW materials and brought into PVC tubes at 80% water-filled pore space and 15°C. Every 2.5 h, a gas sample was taken and analysed by gas chromatography for its N2O concentration. The soil amended with only celery residues had a cumulative N2O emission of 9.6 mg N kg–1 soil in 50 h. When the celery residues were mixed with an OBW material, the N2O emission was each time lower than the emission from the celery-only treatment (between 3.8 and 5.9 mg N kg–1 soil during maximum 77 h), except with paper sludge (17.2 mg N kg–1 soil in 100 h). The higher N2O emission from the paper sludge treatment was probably due to its unusually low C:N ratio. Straw, green waste compost 1 (GWC1) and 2 (GWC2), saw dust, and tannic acid reduced the N2O emission of the celery treatment by 40 to 60%. Although the N2O reduction potential can be expected to be lower and with differing dynamics under field conditions, this study indicates that apart from reducing NO3– leaching, OBW application may at the same time reduce N2O emissions after incorporation of high-N crop residues. 相似文献

Effect of diet and dietary fatty acids on the transformation and incorporation of C18 fatty acids in double-muscled Belgian Blue young bulls 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Three groups of double-muscled Belgian Blue young bulls were fed during different stages of production diets differing in the proportions of linolenic and linoleic acid by including linseed in the concentrate or giving grass silage as main linolenic acid suppliers. Samples of rumen and abomasal contents and of the longissimus thoracis, subcutaneous fat, and liver were taken to analyze the fatty acid pattern with emphasis on the individual trans (t) C18:1 fatty acids and cis-9,trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid (c9t11CLA). Trans C18:1 isomers represented up to 20 g/100 g of total fatty acids in rumen and abomasal contents, whereas the accumulation of c9t11CLA was limited. Total trans C18:1 content in subcutaneous fat and intramuscular fat of the longissimus thoracis comprised 8.4 and 5.2 g/100 g of total fatty acids, respectively, with t11C18:1 being the most abundant one. Compared to rumen contents, subcutaneous and intramuscular fat were enriched in c9t11CLA and contained fewer tC18:1 isomers, resulting in a higher c9t11CLA/t11C18:1 ratio (0.04, 0.22, and 0.22, respectively). This result suggests that the endogenous synthesis of c9t11CLA in adipose tissue by the Delta(9)-desaturase was more important than its ruminal production. 相似文献
