Effect of Antimicrobial Exposure on Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) Colonization of the Infant Gut Microbiota in the Canadian Healthy Infant Longitudinal Development (CHILD) Birth Cohort
DownloadSpring 2020
Introduction: Antimicrobial exposure in early life has been associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis and development of allergic diseases in childhood. In adults and older children, C. difficile is the major pathogen responsible for antibiotic-induced diarrhea but the effect of colonization with...

Effect of breed type and residual feed intake on meat and collagen quality and expression of genes involved in collagen synthesis and degradation in bovine m. gluteus medius
DownloadSpring 2020
Residual feed intake (RFI) is an index of feed efficiency that has been demonstrated to be moderately heritable, with cattle having low RFI values being efficient as they consume less feed for the same weight gain. This may be of financial benefit to producers, but to be fully beneficial to...

Effect of chitosan, and bacteriocin – Producing Carnobacterium maltaromaticum on survival of Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium on beef
Download2018-01-01
Hu, Zi Yi, Balay, Danielle, Hu, Ying, McMullen, Lynn M., Gänzle, Michael G.
The aim of this study was to investigate the synergistic effect of chitosan and bacteriocins against Escherichia coli and Salmonella in media and in lean beef. The inhibitory effects of chitosan and bacteriocins against E. coli AW1.7 and S. enterica Typhimurium in media were determined by a...

Effect of hydrostatic pressure and antimicrobial on survival of Listeria monocytogenes and enterohaemorrhagic E.coli in beef
Download2016-01-01
The effects of marinades on Listeria monocytogenes and enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli were investigated in pressure treated beef steaks. Meat was treated with 600 MPa or 450 MPa. Marinades did not enhance pressure inactivation of E. coli in beef steaks and marinades prevented...

Effect of Preservatives on Growth and Filamentation of Listeria monocytogenes on Ready-to-Eat Meats
DownloadFall 2020
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen known to contaminate RTE foods and grow at refrigeration temperatures. It is also known to form filaments when stressed, which may affect enumeration and compromise consumer safety. The objective of this study was to observe the growth and...

Bruce, H. L., Mowat, D. N., Ball, R. O.
The relationships between meat tenderness and the changes in metabolism and body composition associated with compensatory growth in cattle were examined. Thirty-six steers were randomly allotted to 12 pens of three with three diets assigned randomly to the pens. Diets were alfalfa/grass silage,...

Meat tenderness may be improved by accelerating muscle metabolism or by damaging muscle structure and increasing the solubility of muscle proteins. Pre- and postrigor protein and collagen solubilities were measured in semitendinosus muscles, removed pre-rigor from 24 Charolais crossbred steer...

Effects of production system and growth promotants on the physiological maturity scores in steers
Download2014
Aalhus, J. L., Basarab, J. A., N. Prieto, I. L., López-Campos, Ó., Larsen, M.
Over a 2-yr period, 224 crossbred steers were allotted to a 2×2×2 factorial arrangement of treatments to determine the effect of the production system (calf-fed vs. yearling-fed), growth implant strategy (non-implanted vs. implanted) and β-agonist supplementation (no ractopamine vs. ractopamine)...

Meghen, C. N., Platz, S. S., Hu, X. S., Moore, S. S., Simila, J., Plastow, G.
Estimating animal abundance in industrial scale batches of ground meat is important for mapping meat products through the manufacturing process and for effectively tracing the finished product during a food safety recall. The processing of ground beef involves a potentially large number of...

The main objective of this research was to evaluate the potential of 3-nitrooxypropanol (NOP) to lower enteric methane (CH4) production by ruminants. Methane is an undesirable byproduct of enteric fermentation that represents a loss of energy to the animal. Additionally, CH4 is a greenhouse gas...
