Kuluttajien lisääntynyt vaatimus tuoreita tai tuoreen kaltaisia ruokia kohtaan ja pyrkimys lisäaineiden käytön vähentämiseen lisäävät osaltaan myös tuoreen kalan vähittäispakkaamisen merkitystä. Kirjallisuuskatsauksessa käsitellään lyhyesti tuoreen kalan pilaantumista ja keskitytään keinoihin kalan tuoreuden säilyttämiseksi ja säilyvyyden parantami...
Peste des pattits ruminants (PPR) and manage have been associated with high mortality and morbidity among village goats in southwest Nigeria. Twelve months of PPR control for village goats resulted in 75% reductions in mortality among the groups vaccinated. Survival indices of kids at preweaning had no direct effect on mortality.
