A Comprehensive Review of Fish Protein Hydrolysates Targeting Pet Food Formulat...
Ribeiro, Tânia Isabel Bragança; Maia, Margarida R.G.; Fonseca, António J.M.; Marques, Bianca; Caleja, Cristina; Rosa, Ana; Martins, Rui; Almeida, AndréThe fish industry generates significant amounts of fish by- and co-products (FBCPs) annually, projected to reach 160.8 million tonnes by 2030. This growth highlights the urgent need for sustainable FBCP management and an opportunity to improve the sector’s environmental sustainability. Fish protein hydrolysates (FBCPHs) and bioactive peptides (BPs) derived from these FBCPs are gaining recognition in the pet foo...
Implications of seasonal and daily variation on methane and ammonia emissions f...
Rodrigues, Ana R.F.; Silva, Maria Eduarda; Silva, Vanessa F.; Maia, Margarida R.G.; Cabrita, Ana R.J.; Trindade, Henrique; Fonseca, António J.M.Seasonal and daily variations of gaseous emissions from naturally ventilated dairy cattle barns are important figures for the establishment of effective and specific mitigation plans. The present study aimed to measure methane (CH4) and ammonia (NH3) emissions in three naturally ventilated dairy cattle barns covering the four seasons for two consecutive years. In each barn, air samples from five indoor location...
Effect of protein and lipid levels in diets for adult sea urchin Paracentrotus ...
Baião, Luís F.; Rocha, Filipa; Costa, Mónica; Sá, Tiago; Oliveira, Ana; Maia, Margarida R.G.; Fonseca, Antonio J. M.; Pintado, ManuelaParacentrotus lividus gonads are considered a prized seafood delicacy due to its organoleptic features. The increasing market demand for sea urchin depleted several wild stocks, thus aquaculture can play an important role in supplying high-quality animals. Nevertheless, the success of this activity largely depends on the development of nutritionally balanced diets capable of producing excellent gonads. In this ...
