Ruminant production systems are major contributors to greenhouse gases emissions, with animal feeding practices being the main cause for methane and nitrous oxide’s release. Although feeding animals forages has been proven to be more sustainable, traditional ryegrass monocultures still require a lot of input (e.g., fertilisers and pesticides). Multi-species swards, consisting of different swards, such as grasses, forage legumes and herbs, need less management and fertiliser, produce more dry matter, and also add a variety of phytochemicals into the animal diet. In particular, polyphenols have been associated with a positive impact on animal health and productivity. However, data on the …


Influence Of Hesperidin On The Physico-Chemical, Microbiological, And Sensory Characteristics Of Frozen Yogurt, Roberto Antonio Cedillos Hernández Oct 2022

Influence Of Hesperidin On The Physico-Chemical, Microbiological, And Sensory Characteristics Of Frozen Yogurt, Roberto Antonio Cedillos Hernández

LSU Master's Theses

Frozen yogurts contain yogurt culture bacteria which might impart health benefits to its consumers. Global frozen yogurt market sales are expected to grow 4.8% by 2028 which represents an important opportunity for the industry, consumers, and researchers. Polyphenols are metabolites found in plants which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and might prevent chronical diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to elucidate the effect of the polyphenol hesperidin on the physico-chemical, microbiological, and sensory characteristics of frozen yogurts. Hesperidin was incorporated in frozen yogurt at three concentrations (500, 250 and 125 mg/90g of …
