We’re bringing you a dairy food science *icon* on this episode of #DairyDigressions! Host Matt Lucy is joined by MaryAnne Drake, PhD of @fbnsncstate, a leading authority in sensory science, dairy flavor chemistry, and consumer research. 🎧 Listen in:

What is the impact of a highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 outbreak on health, productivity, and economics at the herd and individual levels on a dairy farm? Learn more in a #JournalofDairyScience study from a @msuvets team ➡️ #DairyScience

Can we differentiate between breath and exhaled volatile organic compounds and improve breath metabolomics (or breathomics) ability to describe the metabolic phenotype of cows? Learn more in a #JDSCommunications study from a @ETH team ➡️

By affecting cows’ diets, climate change can affect cheese’s nutritional value and sensory traits such as taste, color, and texture. This is true at least for Cantal, researchers report in the #JournalofDairyScience (.

Dairy cattle respiration rates (RR) have been traditionally used to aid detection of disease & excessive heat load, but how can weather, characteristics (like breed and age), and behavior impact RR? Learn more in a #JournalofDairyScience study ➡️

How do higher volumes of milk replacer impact ruminal leakage and ruminal development, the flow of protein and energy to the calf, and the physiology of the rumen? Learn more in a new #JournalofDairyScience study (.

Can whey protein fractal assembly particles create stable, cold-set emulsion gels and offer new protein-based texturizers for consumer food products? Learn more in a #JournalofDairyScience study from a @CALSNCState and @CalPoly_CAFES team ➡️

How do prepartum muscle reserves and branched-chain volatile fatty acid supplementation during the last six weeks of gestation influence the neonatal calf? Find out in a #JDSCommunications study from a @PurdueANSC team ➡️ #DairyScience #SocietyPubs

Precision tech isn’t a silver bullet, but when used effectively, it transforms calf management. This focus on how tech can benefit animal welfare is key to the public perceptions of its use, according to a #JDS study (.

How can microwave vacuum drying technology be used to make cheese puff snacks? Learn more in a #JournalofDairyScience study from a @CornellCALS team led by Carmen Moraru ➡️ #DairyScience #SocietyPubs

We’re excited to announce that #Discover48 will be held in partnership w/ the American Society of Animal Science (@CritterChatter) on “Beef × Dairy," bringing together experts to discuss emerging knowledge relevant to both sectors. Join us ➡️
