Landscape in motion: revisiting the role of key disturbances in the preservation of mountain ecosystems
La historia del planeta es una historia dinámica, de continuo cambio. Los responsables de la gestión del medio natural se enfrentan actualmente ante un paisaje muy cambiante debido a las condiciones de cambio global (cambio ... -
Mid-infrared spectroscopy (MIR) for simultaneous determination of fat and protein content in meat of several animal species
The aim of this research was to study the application of MIR spectroscopy as an alternative to conventional methods to determine fat and protein content. Samples of the main species used to produce meat products were ... -
Multicomponent physical exercise in older adults after hospitalization: a randomized controlled trial comparing short-vs. long-term group-based interventions
Multicomponent physical exercise is effective in curbing the effect of hospitalization in older adults. However, it is not well established which characteristics of the exercise interventions would optimize intervention ... -
Open innovation in the food and beverage industry
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to extend the knowledge into the relationship between open innovation (OI) and firm’s innovative performance. Specifically, the authors aim to determine whether the benefits of OI ... -
Physical fitness reference standards for preschool children: the PREFIT project
Objectives: Reference values are necessary for classifying children, for health screening, and for early prevention as many non-communicable diseases aggravate during growth and development. While physical fitness reference ... -
Physicochemical and sensory properties of sous vide meat and meat analog products marinated and cooked at different temperature-time combinations
Ready-to-eat (RTE) products elaborated from beef and meat analog, previously marinated (teriyaki and beer), were subjected to sous vide cooking at different combinations of temperature (70ºC and 80ºC) and time (60, 90 and ... -
The reformulation of a beef patty enriched with n-3 fatty acids and vitamin D3 influences consumers' response under different information scenarios
The objective of this study was to investigate the sensory acceptability and willingness to pay (WTP) for a beef patty elaborated with beef from a local breed that was enriched with nutritional ingredients (vegetable oil ... -
Runoff, nutrients, sediment and salt yields in an irrigated watershed in southern Navarre (Spain)
The environmental impact of irrigated agriculture on water quality was assessed in Landazuria watershed (Navarre, northeast Spain), a 479.5 ha watershed with 53% of irrigated agricultural land. In the framework of a long-term ... -
A single question of parent-reported physical activity levels estimates objectively measured physical fitness and body composition in preschool children: the PREFIT project
Physical inactivity is recognized as a determinant of low physical fitness and body composition in preschool children, which in turn, are important markers of health through the lifespan. Objective methods to assess physical ... -
Soil bacterial functional diversity mirrors the loss of plant diversity by the expansion of a native tall-grass in high mountain grasslands
Background and Aims: In highland ecosystems, global change processes are intense and foster vegetation shifts that may have an impact on soil functioning. Soil bacterial communities may be particularly sensitive to these ... -
Step-based metrics and overall physical activity in children with overweight or obesity: cross-sectional study
Background: Best-practice early interventions to increase physical activity (PA) in children with overweight and obesity should be both feasible and evidence based. Walking is a basic human movement pattern that is practical, ... -
A survey of culturable fungal endophytes from festuca rubra subsp. pruinosa, a grass from Marine Cliffs, reveals a core microbiome
Festuca rubra subsp. pruinosa is a perennial grass that inhabits sea cliffs of the Atlantic coasts of Europe. In this unhospitable environment plants grow in rock crevices and are exposed to abiotic stress factors such as ... -
Textural characteristics of safe dishes for dysphagic patients: a multivariate analysis approach
Twenty-four safe dishes for cerebral palsy dysphagic patients and four commercial dysphagia-oriented food products for dysphagia were studied in order to determine their textural characteristics. Apparent viscosity measured ... -
The use of concentrates rich in orange by-products in goat feed and its effects on physico-chemical, textural, fatty acids, volatile compounds and sensory characteristics of the meat of suckling kids
We analysed how replacing cereal concentrates with dehydrated orange pulp (DOP) in the diet of mother goats affects the meat quality of suckling kids. Three experimental diets for mother goats were designed. The DOP-0 diet ... -
Water footprint and virtual water trade: the birth and growth of a new research field in Spain
The growth in the number of studies applying and expanding the concepts of the water footprint and virtual water trade in Spain has generated a wealth of lessons and reflections about the scarcity, allocation, productive ...
