To investigate the effect of boning time and storage temperature on meat quality of duck breast, a total of thirty duck breasts were designed in frozen-thawed, chilled-storage, and cold-boning samples. No significant differences were found among pH of all samples. However, cold-boning samples showed significantly (p<0.05) lower cooking loss than the other samples. Frozen-thawed samples showed significantly (p<0.05) higher lightness ($L^*$) and yellowness($b^*$), shorter sarcomere length and higher shear force values compared to the other samples. The result speculated that muscle shortening was affected by lower temperature (frozen) hence tenderness was decreased. Sarcoplasmic protein solubility showed no significant differences among samples, whereas cold-boning samples showed significantly (p<0.05) higher myofibrillar and total protein solubility than the other samples. The result of sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) patterns, chilled-storage and cold-boning samples showed degradation at high molecular protein (nebulin), which was not observed in frozen-thawed samples. Therefore, this data suggested that muscle shortening, tenderness and protein degradation are not affected by boning time rather affected by rapid change of temperature in frozen-thawed samples.

This study was carried out to examine, by the reverse transcription chain reaction(RT-PCR)and Immunostain assays, epidermal growth factor mRNA expression in bovine ova during oocyte maturation in vitro(0-2lh)and after fertilization in vitro(6-144hr: zygotes to blastocysts). In this study, the transcripts of EGF was detected in oocytes using primers for EGF. Transcripts for EGF mRNA was not detected in oocytes through in vitro maturation. But EGF mRNA were present after fertilization up to the 2-cell stage and the blastocyst stage. The highest mRNA levels in 4-cell stage embryos were decreased at 8cell stage and then reincreased upto morulae and blastocysts. The results of this study showed EGF mRNA are present in embryo after fertilization and this factors are involved in the regulation of bovine embryo development.

This article addresses issues related to environmental pollution.Particular attention is paid to the prevention of environmental pollution by livestock waste, which prompted the creation of closed ecological and biotechnical systems as environmentally closed production structures that can fit into the equilibrium system of the environment with minimal damage to it. An energy-saving and environmental protection technology for the processing and disposal of livestock waste with a maximum coefficient of energy transfer to livestock products has been developed, which consists in a combined treatment of waste in three stages, by transferring waste from one technological module to another, which makes it possible to completely utilize mineral substances in waste. The focus is on vermicultivation, microalgae cultivation and anaerobic fermentation in a bioenergy plant. To increase the productivity of growing microalgae, the authors proposed a deep type cultivator with submerged movable light sources.The technological parameters of the bioenergy installation for waste treatment are determined. An energy-saving and environmental-friendly technology has been developed for processing The main contribution of the study is the development of energy-saving and environmental technology for the processing and disposal of livestock waste with a maximum coefficient of energy transfer to livestock products.

There are approximately 250,000 organic livestock farming in the world. The total retail value of organic food sales in the world is $ 27 billion. The organic livestock products such as milk, lamb and beef are marketed mostly in Europe and the USA. The market share of organic food is about 2% in total food marketing value of worldwide and of the organic food marketing value, organic livestock products portioned 17% in the USA. The organic livestock products are primarily marketed at Supermarket(Europe), Health and Natural Food store(USA). Concerning international trade, it is very little. But it is increasing among the developed counties of Europe. In the future, the production of organic livestock products will be rapidly increased in South America, Middle East and Oceania, but the growth rate will be limited due to its expensive price, lack of marketing-infra and different regulation system. Most of developed countries drive organic farming policy strongly as the strategic means of rural development, diversifying agriculture system and environmental improvement.

Determination of sex origin of cattle meat by fast and reliable molecular methods is an important measure to ensure correct allocation of export refunds particularly in European countries and also female cattle (cow) slaughter is legally banned in India because of religious beliefs. Based on the DEAD box protein gene located on the X and Y chromosomes, 2 pair of primers were designed and the system of PCR was optimized. Upon PCR amplification, male tissue showed 2 bands, while female tissue resulted in only one band. The accuracy and specificity of the primers was assessed using DNA template extracted from cattle meat of known sex. The protocol was subjected to a blind test and showed 100% concordance, proving its accuracy and reliability.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of pig manure composting on emission of dinitrogen oxide ($N_2O$) that is greenhouse gas. Fresh pig manure was mixed with sawdust as bulking agent and moisture content of mixed compost was adjusted by 61.9%. After mixing bulking agent with pig manure that was left to compost with aeration in composting chamber for an initial period of 30 days. At the end of this period, that was decomposed and a second period of composting was conducted without aeration for 60 days. Temperature during the initial composting period was above $55^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. Moisture reduction rate by composting pig manure was 36.7%. $N_2O$ Produced during composting was 0.043g/T-Ng.

Lactobacillus amylovorus CACC736 was originated from swine feces in Korea. The complete genome sequences of the strain contained one circular chromosome (2,057,809 base pair [bp]) with 38.2% guanine-cytosine (GC) content and two circular plasmids, namely, pCACC736-1 and pCACC736-2. The predicted protein-coding genes, which are encoding the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated proteins, biosynthesis of bacteriocin (helveticin J), and the related proteins of the bile, acid tolerance. Notably, the genes related to vitamin B-group biosynthesis (riboflavin and cobalamin) were also found in L. amylovorus CACC736. Collectively, the complete genome sequence of the L. amylovorus CACC736 will aid in the development of functional probiotics in the animal industry.
