V VI Salih Mustafa Salih Authenticity and quality of muscle foods: Assessing consumer trust and fraud detection approaches Abstract Authenticity issues and fraudulent practices regarding animal products are affecting consumer confidence. Verifying the description, composition, processing or origin of foods can be challenging. To explore British and Kurdish consumers’ perceptions of kebab meat products, focus groups and questionnaire surveys were applied. About 40% of participants in the UK tend to purchase fewer processed meats after the European horsemeat scandal. Issues raised by participants indicated their concerns about the declaration of species, meat content, and other ingredients incorporated in kebab and other meat products. Lack of consumer trust has been linked to authenticity issues. Reactions towards the addition of fat-replacing inulin were positive by more than half of respondents. A further study aimed to investigate the effect of commercial inulin (CI) and Jerusalem artichoke (JA) tubers as fat replacers on the eating quality and overall acceptability of kebabs. Inulin flour prepared from JA by a simple protocol presented advantages with about 10% higher cooking yield and overall acceptability when compared with CI. Levels of inulin as low as 0.5% were detected in meat products using enzymatic assay, which could be relevant to detect additives and enforce labelling requirements. The authenticity (origin and species) was investigated in fish samples from commercial markets in Erbil, Kurdistan Region of Iraq

However, consumers struggle to make an informed dish decision due to a lack of information provided. Additionally, past food scares in Germany and the UK have created distrust and interest in food information. This study is identifying what is important to consumers, indicating their information needs and establishes the format that is most appropriate for the delivery of food information in workplace canteens in Germany and the UK. Providing consumers with enhanced food information can strengthen the relationship between consumer and canteen operator as well as establish trust in the food served. A mixed methodological, sequential approach was employed. Four focus groups were used to inform the design of a questionnaire (n=317), which tested criteria of importance and types of information provision that are relevant when making food choice in a workplace setting using Best-worst scaling.

    1 Original Research Article 2 HAEMATOLOGICAL AND HISTOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF JUVENILES OF 3 Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus IN OGBESE RIVER, ONDO STATE, NIGERIA 4 5 ABSTRACT 6 Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus catfish is a fish of economic importance in sub-sahara Africa. In 7 Ogbese town, and its environs, it constitutes a means of income and food for fisherfolks and 8 community members. Hence, this study was undertaken to assess health status of Chrysichthys 9 nigrodigitatus using heamatology and histological assessment of the fish specie due to the 10 anthropogenic activities that takes place around the river body. A total 120 live fish samples of 11 Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus were collected by the assistance of fisherfolks using fish cage at 12 Ogbese River from May to August, 2018. Some water parameters measurements were taken: 13 temperature, pH, DO, Turbidity and Conductivity. Morphometric measurement: Weight (g) and 14 length (cm) of fish were taken. Heamatoloty and histology of fish gills, liver and intestine were 15 determined. Mean water temperature (27.70±0.18oC), pH (7.36±0.22), DO (6.98±0.15 mg/l), 16 Turbidity (78.50±13.53 NTU) and Conductivity (148.35±27.98) of the river determined 17 respectively. Mean body weight of fish was 148.15 ± 36.53 g, and mean length was 25.64 ± 2.86 18 cm. The of the fish specie were examined to assess the architecture of the organs. result of 19 haematology studies of C. nigrodigitatus revealed high values in the parameters measured. Red 20 Blood Cell was higher than the White Blood Cell with mean value of (225.63±10.45 103/mm3) 21 while Eosinophils recorded lowest parameters with mean value of (1.75 ±0.52 %).

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of Freshwater Fishes of the Genus Capoeta (Actinopterygii, Cyprinidae) in Iran
    Received: 3 May 2016 | Revised: 8 August 2016 | Accepted: 9 August 2016 DOI: 10.1002/ece3.2411 ORIGINAL RESEARCH Phylogenetic relationships of freshwater fishes of the genus Capoeta (Actinopterygii, Cyprinidae) in Iran Hamid Reza Ghanavi | Elena G. Gonzalez | Ignacio Doadrio Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales, Biodiversity and Evolutionary Abstract Biology Department, CSIC, Madrid, Spain The Middle East contains a great diversity of Capoeta species, but their taxonomy re- Correspondence mains poorly described. We used mitochondrial history to examine diversity of the Hamid Reza Ghanavi, Department of algae- scraping cyprinid Capoeta in Iran, applying the species- delimiting approaches Biology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden. Email: [email protected] General Mixed Yule- Coalescent (GMYC) and Poisson Tree Process (PTP) as well as haplotype network analyses. Using the BEAST program, we also examined temporal divergence patterns of Capoeta. The monophyly of the genus and the existence of three previously described main clades (Mesopotamian, Anatolian- Iranian, and Aralo- Caspian) were confirmed. However, the phylogeny proposed novel taxonomic findings within Capoeta. Results of GMYC, bPTP, and phylogenetic analyses were similar and suggested that species diversity in Iran is currently underestimated. At least four can- didate species, Capoeta sp4, Capoeta sp5, Capoeta sp6, and Capoeta sp7, are awaiting description. Capoeta capoeta comprises a species complex with distinct genetic line- ages. The divergence times of the three main Capoeta clades are estimated to have occurred around 15.6–12.4 Mya, consistent with a Mio- Pleistocene origin of the di- versity of Capoeta in Iran. The changes in Caspian Sea levels associated with climate fluctuations and geomorphological events such as the uplift of the Zagros and Alborz Mountains may account for the complex speciation patterns in Capoeta in Iran.

Corresponding author: *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The genus Capoeta in Iran is highly diversified with 14 species and is one of the most important freshwater fauna components of the country. Central Iran is a region with high number of endemism in other freshwater fish species, though the present species was recognized as C. aculeata (Valenciennes, 1844), widely distributed within Kavir and Namak basins. However previous phylogenetic and phylogeographic studies found that populations of Nam River, a tributary of the Hableh River in central Iran are different from the other species. In this study, the mentioned population is described as a new species based on morphologic and genetic characters. Keywords: Inland freshwater of Iran, Nam River, Algae-scraping cyprinid, Capoeta.

The treatment is the concentration of the use of nilem skin gelatin 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, and CMC 0.4% (control) of the total mixture of ice cream ingredients (full cream milk powder, skim, stabilizer, emulsifier, and water) with 4 repetitions. The parameters observed were the level of preference for the color, aroma, texture, and taste of ice cream. The most preferred ice cream is obtained by using nilem skin gelatin at a concentration of 0.4%. Keywords: Javakarp, gelatin, skin, nilem fish, ice cream, preference level, Osteochilus hasselti, Osteochilus vittatus 1. INTRODUCTION Nilem is a family of Cyprinidea freshwater fish, and can be seen in Figure 1. Cultivation of nilem fish is almost abandoned because its utilization is not optimal [25]. The part of nilem fish which is eggs is generally used to make caviar so that there is fish skin waste. To maximize the utilization of nilem fish, it is necessary to diversify through processing nilem skin gelatin. Nilem fish's skin is one of the potential wastes to be the basic

TEACHING NOTES The authors prepared this case solely as a basis for class discussion and not as an endorsement, a source of primary data, or an illustration of effective or ineffective management. Although based on real events and despite occasional references to actual companies, this case is fictitious and any resemblance to actual persons or entities is coincidental. 30–2018 | Findus horsemeat scandal - How should they handle a new food scandal? TEACHING NOTES Teaching plan The teaching plan is constructed in order to prepare the lecture regarding this brand management case. The plan includes a presented guide and suggested ways to teach and perform the case. This includes for instance a time plan, a board plan and the valuable learning objectives. This case takes its standpoint in a new fictive incident and is supplied by three alternative solutions to the crisis at hand. These alternatives are described in detail and have been exemplified with possible benefits and risks, all to inspire an interesting discussion and ways to perform the case. This teaching plan is a summary of valuable ways, as well as learning objectives to be able to fulfil the requirements of a way to teach a case. The frame of this case is inspired by the following input. Harvard Business School (2017) states that their method of teaching through a case can be considered a substantial innovative way to educate. In this the most considerable challenges that face companies, organisations belonging to the government and non-profit ones, this is presented together with restraints, as well as limited information concerning a real issue (Harvard Business School, 2017).
