An instrumental tenderness detection system used at the time of grading to sort beef carcasses on their predicted tenderness would be valuable for the beef industry. A biosensor to accurately predict calpastatin, the ...
Endocrine associations with beef carcass quality and yield
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Serum concentrations of insulin, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and leptin were investigated relative to their association to beef carcass quality and yield grades...
Identification and quantification of differentally represented transcripts in preimplantation bovine embryos
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Identification of transcripts present at key development stages in preimplantation embryos is critical for a better understanding of early embryogenesis. To that end, we characterized the relative abundance of multiple ...
