Stunning and slaughter methods in gilthead seabream: animal welfare and muscle ...
Cabrera-Álvarez, María José; Soares, Sónia Marina António; Nuñez Velazquez, Samira; Anibal, Jaime; Esteves, Eduardo; Costa, RitaEuropean Union directives and international guidelines emphasise the need for humane slaughter practices, with particular attention to the proper stunning of fish prior to slaughter. This study investigates the impact of various combinations of stunning and slaughter methods on the welfare of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata), a widely farmed species in the Mediterranean and Black Sea regions. Specifically, the...
Vacuum-packaged sous-vide mackerel (Scomber colias) fillets for school canteens...
Furiski, Bárbara Silva; Esteves, Eduardo; Anibal, JaimeThe Atlantic chub mackerel (Scomber colias) is a nutritionally valuable species with potential for inclusion in school canteens. This study aimed to develop and evaluate mackerel-based products processed through marination, vacuum packaging, and sous-vide cooking. Following collective interviews with school canteen staff to assess acceptability and logistical suitability, the preferred variants—raw, marinated, ...
A global meta‐analysis of ecological functions and regulating ecosystem service...
Zieritz, Alexandra; Brian, Joshua I.; Sousa, Ronaldo; Aldridge, David C.; Atkinson, Carla L.; Douda, Karel; Vaughn, Caryn; Bespalaya, YuliaFreshwater bivalves are globally distributed, diverse, and common in benthic communities. Many taxa, par-ticularly in the most species-rich order, Unionida, are declining due to anthropogenic stressors, while a small number of non-native species have become increasingly abundant and widespread, commonly replacing nativebivalve assemblages. To understand how these global changes may impact ecosystems and people,...

Ocean acidification will not affect the shell strength of juveniles of the comm...
SORDO, LAURA; Esteves, Eduardo; Valente, Joana F.A.; Duarte, Catarina; Alves, Nuno; Baptista, Teresa; Gaspar, Miguel; Anibal, JaimeOcean acidification (OA) is expected to decrease the strength of bivalves' shells, especially during the early stages of development, with negative consequences to the resilience of natural populations and the economy. The objectives of the present study were to assess the long-term effect of increasing pCO(2) after 217 days of exposure under controlled conditions of pH of similar to 8.2, 8.0, and 7.7 on the st...
MODeLING.Vis: a graphical user interface toolbox developed for machine learning...
Martins, Jorge Emanuel; D’Alimonte, Davide; Simões, Joana; Sousa, Sara; Esteves, Eduardo; Rosa, Nuno; Correia, Maria José; Simões, MárioMany scientific publications that affect machine learning have set the basis for pattern recognition and symmetry. In this paper, we revisit the concept of “Mind-life continuity” published by the authors, testing the symmetry between cognitive and electrophoretic strata. We opted for machine learning to analyze and understand the total protein profile of neurotypical subjects acquired by capillary electrophores...
Saliva for diabetes’ complications: non-invasive diagnostics and monitoring
Esteves, Eduardo; Mendes, Vera; Manadas, Bruno; Lemos, António; Alves, Dora; Bernardino, Liliana; Correia, Maria; Barros, Marlene; Esteves, Ana C.Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease that poses a significant long-term health risk due to its debilitating complications. While the diagnosis and monitoring of diabetes are well-established, the monitoring of its numerous complications presents a challenge, which can compromise patients' prognosis and quality of life. We analyzed the proteome of ten saliva samples, five from healthy individu...
Alimentos com história: histórias de alimentos
Cruz, Ana Lúcia; Quintas, Célia; Esteves, Eduardo; Fraqueza, Gil; Ratao, Isabel; Aníbal, Jaime; Melo, Jessie; Pereira, Jorge; Jesus, JoséA Dieta Mediterrânica é um património histórico ativo que depende da utilização sustentável de recursos, guiando-se pelos ritmos da natureza e pelo respeito pela biodiversidade. O conceito de Dieta Mediterrânica não compreende apenas a alimentação, todavia os aspetos relacionados com os hábitos alimentares, os alimentos e a sua preparação são marcadores da identidade coletiva de um povo. Assim, este modelo cult...
(Un)wanted fish: potential consumers’ acceptability of landings in the Portugue...
Ramos, Jorge; Lino, Pedro G.; Aníbal, Jaime; Esteves, EduardoThe Landing Obligation (LO), introduced in 2015 by the Common Fisheries Policy of the European Union (EU-CFP), has been subject to a transitional period until recently. The rationale behind the measure is that all fish species subject to a total allowable catch (TAC) must be landed to increase the sustainability of fishing activities. Through the analysis of official statistical data, it is possible to find out...
