Abstract
The present study aimed to examine the impact of lactic acid bacteria- fermented feed (FF) on the taste and quality of duck meat, in addition to elucidating the potential metabolomic mechanism at play. The findings revealed that ducks fed with FF exhibited elevated pH levels and reduced cooking loss in their meat when compared to the control group. In addition, the sensory evaluation and e-tongue analysis revealed that the tenderness, juiciness, umami, richness, saltiness, and sweetness of duck meat were all enhanced by feeding FF. Moreover, an examination of the metabolome using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) identified the principal differential metabolites that exhibited a correlation with taste, which included 2-aminoadipate, glucose, glycine, N-acetylcysteine, niacinamide, proline, and threonine. Furthermore, the differential metabolites that exhibited the greatest enrichment in duck meat could be primarily traced to glutathione metabolism, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, taurine and hypotaurine metabolism. The potential factors contributing to the effect of FF and basic commercial duck feed (CF) were found to be primarily regulated via the aforementioned metabolic pathways. The study, therefore, offers a viable approach for enhancing the taste and quality of duck meat.

J Proteomics 2023; 276:104836. [PMID: 36764652 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2023.104836] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023]
Abstract
Sheep meat (encompassing lamb, hogget and mutton) is an important source of animal protein in many countries, with a unique flavour and sensory profile compared to other red meats. Flavour, colour and texture are the key quality attributes contributing to consumer liking of sheep meat. Over the last decades, various factors from 'farm to fork', including production system (e.g., age, breed, feeding regimes, sex, pre-slaughter stress, and carcass suspension), post-mortem manipulation and processing (e.g., electrical stimulation, ageing, packaging types, and chilled and frozen storage) have been identified as influencing different aspects of sheep meat quality. However conventional meat-quality assessment tools are not able to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and pathways for quality variations. Advances in broad-based analytical techniques have offered opportunities to obtain deeper insights into the molecular changes of sheep meat which may become biomarkers for specific variations in quality traits and meat authenticity. This review provides an overview on how omics techniques, especially proteomics (including peptidomics) and metabolomics (including lipidomics and volatilomics) are applied to elucidate the variations in sheep meat quality, mainly in loin muscles, focusing on colour, texture and flavour, and as tools for authentication. SIGNIFICANCE: From this review, we observed that attempts have been made to utilise proteomics and metabolomics techniques on sheep meat products for elucidating pathways of quality variations due to various factors. For instance, the improvement of colour stability and tenderness could be associated with the changes to glycolysis, energy metabolism and endogenous antioxidant capacity. Several studies identify proteolysis as being important, but potentially conflicting for quality as the enhanced proteolysis improves tenderness and flavour, while reducing colour stability. The use of multiple analytical methods e.g., lipidomics, metabolomics, and volatilomics, detects a wider range of flavour precursors (including both water and lipid soluble compounds) that underlie the possible pathways for sheep meat flavour evolution. The technological advancement in omics (e.g., direct analysis-mass spectrometry) could make analysis of the proteins, lipids and metabolites in sheep meat routine, as well as enhance the confidence in quality determination and molecular-based assurance of meat authenticity.

Abstract
Lamb meat is an important export commodity, however chilled vacuum-packed (VP) lamb has approximately half the shelf-life of beef under the same storage conditions. This makes the industry more vulnerable to financial losses due to long shipping times and unexpected spoilage. Understanding the spoilage mechanisms of chilled VP lamb in relation to VP beef is important for developing effective strategies to extend the shelf-life of lamb. This review has discussed various key factors (i.e., pH, fat, and presence of bone) that have effects on microbial spoilage of VP lamb contributing to its shorter shelf-life relative to VP beef. A range of bacterial organisms and their metabolisms in relevance to lamb spoilage are also discussed. The data gap in the literature regarding the potential mechanisms of spoilage in VP red meat is highlighted. This review has provided the current understanding of key factors affecting the shelf-life of VP lamb relative to VP beef. It has also identified key areas of research to further understand the spoilage mechanisms of VP lamb. These include investigating the potential influence of fat and bone (including bone marrow) on the shelf-life, as well as assessing changes in the meat metabolome as the spoilage microbial community is developing using an integrated approach. Such new knowledge would aid the development of effective approaches to extend the shelf-life of VP lamb.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the serum and meat metabolomic changes according to the genetic potential for muscularity of non-castrated Nellore males and its association with phenotypic traits. Forty-eight non-castrated Nellore males were separated into two groups based on their genetic potential for post-weaning muscularity: high (HM) and low (LM). Selection for muscularity did not cause noticeable differences in the traits evaluated during the finishing phase and after slaughter. However, several metabolites in meat and serum, have changed according to the muscularity group. HM animals presented an over-abundance of glycerol, glutamine, choline, methylhistidine, betaine, creatinine and methionine in serum, compared with their LM counterparts. Similarly, the meat samples of HM animals were rich in glucose-6-phosphate, lactate, pyruvate, creatinine, betaine, choline, glycerol and arginine relative to LM bulls. Inosine monophosphate was the only metabolite over-abundant in LM animals. In conclusion, the genetic potential for post-weaning muscularity did not affect performance during the finishing phase, carcass traits and meat quality. However, multivariate analysis shows that the genetic potential of muscularity can be correlated with serum lipid and protein metabolites, and with energy metabolism in meat, providing a footprint of cattle muscularity metabolism.
