Brevibacterium linens, a corynebacterium produce a characteristic "sulphur" aroma associated with such cheese. Therefore, this study also investigated the profile of volatile compounds...

The main goal of our paper was to determine the consequences of selenium intake (0.2 ppm as selenium selenite) on mineral profile of some broiler chicken (Ross) tissues/organs. Scarcity of studies on reference ranges for various minerals in different tissues was the secondary reason of our study. Our results highlighted significant variations on minerals content from studied samples: blood пїЅ Cu, Mn, Fe; faeces пїЅ Cu, Mn, Fe, Mg; muscular stomach пїЅ Fe, Zn, Ca; liver пїЅ Fe, Mg, Ca, Na; kidney пїЅ Cu, Mg, Ca, N...
