The dry matter content was determined [31 ] by drying samples in an oven at 105 °C until a constant weight was obtained (method No. 950.46B; AOAC, 1990). The crude protein content was determined by the Kjeldahl method using the Kjeltec system 1002 apparatus (Foss-Tecator AB, Höganäs, Sweden), and a conversion factor of 6.25 was used to convert total nitrogen into crude protein (method No. 981.10; AOAC, 1990). Crude fat was determined by the Soxhlet extraction method (method No. 960.39; AOAC, 1990). Ash was determined by incineration in a muffle furnace at 550 °C for 24 h (method No. 920.153; AOAC, 1990). The samples were analysed in duplicate for all analytes. The content of protein, fat and ash were expressed as the weight percentage of yolk dry matter.
The cholesterol content in yolk was determined according to the extraction method described by Zhang et al. [32 (link)] and followed by HPLC separation and analysis on Shimadzu10 A HPLC system (Shimadzu Corp., Kyoto, Japan). The data collection and evaluation were performed by using LC Solution (Shimadzu Corp., Kyoto, Japan) operating system. The analytical column was LiChrospher 100 RP-18e, 150 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm (Alltech Associates Inc., Columbia, MD, USA) with a guard column (LiChrospher 100 RP-18, 7.5 × 4.6 mm). The cholesterol content was expressed as mg/g of wet yolk weight.

The dry matter content was determined [34 ] by drying samples in an oven at 105 °C until a constant weight was obtained (method No. 950.46B) in [34 ]. The crude protein content was determined by the Kjeldahl method using the Kjeltec system 1002 apparatus (Foss-Tecator AB, Höganäs, Sweden), and a conversion factor of 6.25 was used to convert total nitrogen to crude protein (method No. 981.10) in [34 ]. Crude fat was determined by the Soxhlet extraction method (method No. 960.39) in [34 ]. Ash was determined by incineration in a muffle furnace at 550 °C for 24 h (method No. 920.153) in [34 ]. The content of protein, fat and ash was expressed as the weight percentage of dry matter from muscle tissues. The hydroxyproline content was determined by the NMKL-AOAC method [35 (link)].
The cholesterol content in meat was determined according to the extraction method described by Polak et al. [36 (link)], followed by HPLC separation and analysis on a Shimadzu 10 A HPLC system (Shimadzu Corp., Kyoto, Japan). The data collection and evaluation were performed by using the LC Solution (Shimadzu Corp., Kyoto, Japan) operating system. The analytical column was LiChrospher 100 RP-18e, 150 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm (Alltech Associates Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) with a guard column (LiChrospher 100 RP-18, 7.5 × 4.6 mm). The cholesterol content was expressed as mg/100 g of fresh meat.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
