Diversionary feeding reshapes primate movement and reduces bark-stripping in pine plantations

Bark-stripping by wildlife in commercial tree plantations is a widespread management challenge that causes substantial economic losses and can create tensions between production and conservation goals. Effective mitigation has been hindered by limited understanding of the ecologi...

A Novel Umami Peptide Selector (UPS) for Identifying Key Peptides from Maillard-Reacted Chicken Hydrolyzates: From Taste Evaluation to Antioxidant Properties

Abstract The Maillard reaction (MR) enhances the flavor of chicken enzymatic hydrolyzates, yet pinpointing key umami peptides remains challenging due to complex matrices. Sensory evaluation showed increased umami intensity despite decreased equivalent umami concentration (EUC: 0....
