Boar taint is an unpleasant odor in male pig meat, mainly caused by androstenone, skatole,
and indole, which are deposited in the fat tissue. Piglet castration is the most common …

Herein, an electrochemical sensor for detection of indole was fabricated based on Pd
nanoparticles modified Metal-Organic Framework Cr-MIL-101 (Pd@ Cr-MOF) and ionic …

Indole is an essential metabolite in intestinal tract. The dysregulation of plasma indole
concentration occurred in various diseases. In this study, the indole in plasma was …

Pseudomonas have a faster growth rate over other bacteria in chilled meat under aerobic
conditions. A non-destructive method for modelling the dynamic growth of Pseudomonas in …

The accumulation of skatole in fat tissue is one of the predominant factors, causing boar
taint. The present study was aimed to understand the mechanism whereby active …

Indole is a major metabolite of tryptophan, which plays an important role in the intestinal

Methylindole (3-MI) is a recalcitrant and toxic substance that can cause damages to human
and animal lung cells and may have a pronounced effect on mood and stress levels. Rapid …

In this work, the isolation step in the linear ion trap was performed using different “q values”
conditions at a low collision‐induced dissociation (CID) energy leading to the parent ion …

Finishing entire male pigs after puberty is not common in Europe due to aggression and
boar taint. Alternatives to surgical castration or immunocastration should be explored as the …

Because of animal welfare issues, the voluntary ban on surgical castration of male piglets,
starting January 2018 was announced in a European Treaty. One viable alternative is the …
