Metabolic influence of core ciliates within the rumen microbiome

Ianina Altshuler

Protozoa comprise a major fraction of the microbial biomass in the rumen microbiome, of which the entodiniomorphs (order: Entodiniomorphida) and holotrichs (order: Vestibuliferida) are consistently observed to be dominant across a diverse genetic and geogr ...

Large-scale regionalised LCA shows that plant-based fat spreads have a lower climate, land occupation and water scarcity impact than dairy butter

Xun Liao

Purpose In light of the sustainable diet debate, we conducted a large-scale regionalised LCA to answer the following questions: (i) does the climate advantage hypothesis of plant-based fat spreads and creams over dairy butter and cream hold regardless of t ...

Biogeoinformatics for the management of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR)

Solange Catherine Gaillard

In the context of both severe selection in farm animals and potential effects of climate change, it is crucial to implement a sustainable management of the breeding practice, supported by a judicious use of geographic information technologies. Based on thi ...

Towards Win-Win Policies for Healthy and Sustainable Diets in Switzerland

Arnaud Dauriat, Suren Erkman

The first Swiss national dietary survey (MenuCH) was used to screen disease burdens and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) of Swiss diets (vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, slimming), with a focus on gender and education level. The Health Nutritional Index (HENI ...

Big dairy data to unravel effects of environmental, physiological and morphological factors on milk production of mountain-pastured Braunvieh cows

Stéphane Joost, Elia Vajana, Solange Catherine Gaillard

The transhumance system, which consists in moving animals to high mountain pastures during summer, plays a considerable role in preserving both local biodiversity and traditions, as well as protecting against natural hazard. In cows, particularly, milk pro ...

Inflammatory and metabolic responses to high-fat meals with and without dairy products in men

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs

Postprandial inflammation is an important factor for human health since chronic low-grade inflammation is associated with chronic diseases. Dairy products have a weak but significant anti-inflammatory effect on postprandial inflammation. The objective of t ...

An automated microfluidic platform for C. elegans embryo arraying, phenotyping, and long-term live imaging

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Johan Auwerx, Thomas Lehnert, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Alexis Pierre Henri Marette, Virginija Jovaisaite

Studies of the real-time dynamics of embryonic development require a gentle embryo handling method, the possibility of long-term live imaging during the complete embryogenesis, as well as of parallelization providing a population's statistics, while keepin ...

Impact of milk processing on the generation of peptides during digestion

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Flurina Schwander

Milk processing may induce changes in dairy product composition and influence digestibility and nutrient bioavailability. Differences in protein degradation and peptide generation were studied for beta-lactoglobulin and alpha(S1)-casein from commercially a ...

Spatial and seasonal patterns of cattle habitat use in a mountain wooded pasture

Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet

Management-oriented models of cattle habitat use often treat grazing pressure as a single variable summarizing all cattle activities. This paper addresses the following questions: How does the spatial pattern of cattle effects vary between cattle activitie ...
