Understanding how consumers handle poultry can highlight gaps in consumer knowledge and practice of food safety. Quantitative research provides only a partial image, whereas qualitative data is helpful in gaining a complete picture of a shopper's behaviors. The objective of this study was to determine what poultry product microbes could potentially be transferred during purchasing and home storage; using a shop-along observational technique to observe actual shopping, transporting, and storing behavior of consumers with raw poultry products. In 71% (n=97) of the situations observed there was no visible hand sanitizer or wipes in the meat section of the grocery store. Plastic bags could be found in the meat section 85% (n=97) of the time, which only 25% of shoppers (n=82) used the bag for their poultry products. During transportation, the consumer bagged the poultry separately from other products in 71% of the observations. A majority of shoppers (59%) stored poultry without using a plastic bag or other container. Overall, there needs to be an increase in food safety education on the handling of poultry during purchasing, transporting, and storage.

Full textLe concept de compétitivité a gagné en popularité dans le milieude la recherche au cours des dernières années. L’accord de libre-échange ainsi que la politique libérale ont apporté de nouveau défis pour les entreprises de transformation alimentaire qui œuvrent dans les marchés domestiques et internationaux. L’industrie de transformation avicole est un des secteurs ou le niveau de la compétitivité se doit d’être étudié. Cette thèse a pour but de faire la comparaison entre les industries de transformation avicole canadiennes et américaines. La compétitivité de ces industries est donc étudiée au niveau des industries ainsi qu’au niveau des firmes, et les facteurs tant internes qu’externes déterminant la compétitivité sont présentés. La comparaison est faite au niveau des prix, du ratio de valeur ajoutée, et du taux de croissance de production. Les résultats démontrent que l’industrie canadienne de transformation avicole est moins compétitive que sa voisine américaine. Le niveau peu élevé des économies d’échelle réalisées, la rigidité du système d’offre, ainsi que le prix élevé des intrants canadiens sont les principales raisons expliquant cette différence. fr

Full textThe thesis aims to explore the relationship between stress and immune response in poultry, focusing on acute phase proteins (APPs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) as welfare biomarkers for transport- and disease-related stress. We worked on two poultry species, namely turkey and chicken. Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) was studied in order to provide new information in this species, which is poorly characterised for what concerns immunity and welfare. Existing studies related with avian species are mostly carried out on chicken (Gallus gallus), but there is still lacking information that needs to be addressed. In fact, we have complemented information, already available in chicken, describing the extrahepatic expression of APPs. The effects of transport-related stress on liver and adipose tissue gene expression of four APPs, namely α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), Serum Amyloid A (SAA), PIT54 (Haptoglobin-like) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) was investigated. The expression of AGP and CRP mRNA was found to be increased in liver and adipose tissue from birds after road transport. The presence of AGP protein was also confirmed. In addition, the expression of the same APPs was studied under a disease-related stress, caused by a heamorrhagic enteritis virus (HEV), which is a stressful disease for turkeys. As preliminary results, the expression of AGP, PIT54 and SAA mRNA was found to be increased in liver and adipose tissue from HEV-affected birds, while CRP expression was decreased in jejunum from HEV-infected birds. These results showed that road transport and HEV disease induce the mRNA expression of AGP, PIT54, SAA and CRP, suggesting their use as welfare biomarkers in turkey species. Although APPs are produced mainly by liver, extrahepatic production has been described in many species but not in poultry. The expression and location of five APPs, namely AGP, SAA, PIT54, CRP and OVT, was studied in 20 different tissues from healthy chickens. SAA, OVT and CRP mRNA expression was particularly higher in gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system and lymphatic system. AGP and OVT proteins were detected in different organs. Moreover, the expression of five miRNAs, namely miR-22, miR-155-5p, miR-181a-3p, miR-204 and miR-365-3p, was analyzed under transport-related stress in turkeys. The expression levels of miR-22, miR-155 and miR-365 were increased, suggesting they can be used to discriminate stressed- and unstressed animals. In order to better characterize the disease and to investigate a possible source of biomarkers, the intestinal proteome of turkeys was also determined to study the effects of HEV disease on intestinal mucosa. A total of 523 proteins were identified by SWATH-MS strategy between healthy and HEV-affected birds. A number of 64 of them were found to be differentially expressed. The effective presence of fifteen proteins related with immune system was also validated by mRNA expression. These findings can help us to better understand the effect of HEV in turkeys.

Full textDes méthodes à la fois in vivo et in vitro servirent à élucider le devenir et le comportement de trois antibiotiques ionophores (monensin, salinomycine and narasine) dans l'environnement d'un marais artificiel (MA). Des études in vitro en laboratoire établirent le potentiel de sorption et de décomposition de ces composés dans un loam sablo-argileux et un sol sableux, ainsi que celui de photodégradation dans l'eau de marécage. Des études avec MA à l'échelle préindustrielle déterminèrent le potential d'élimination de ces trois produits pharmaceutiques sous trois types d'écoulement: en surface libre (FWS), souterrain horizontal (HSSF) et en circulation verticale (VF). Le système FWS fut évalué avec les deux types de sols, tandis que le système HSSF ne fut évalué que pour le sol sablonneux. Le système de circulation en vertical utilisa de la tourbe mousseuse de sphaignes. In vitro le niveau de sorption des composés présenta une relation inverse au pH pour des valeurs de 4.5, 6.8, and 8.5. À un pH de 6.8, les valeurs de Kd pour tous les composés furent plus élevés pour le loam sablo-argileux que pour le sol sableux. La narasine montra les valeurs les plus élevées de Kd and Koc, tandis que le monensin montra les moins élevées. Trois concentrations (100, 500, et 1000 μg kg-1) de chaque composé, appliqués sur chacun des deux sols, présentèrent tous une cinétique de dégradation de premier ordre, avec des demi-vie d'élimination de 6 à 8 jours. Le potential de photodégradation des trois composés fut évalué dans de l'eau de marécage pré-stérilisé, de l'eau distillé (milli-Q) et de l'eau distillé dopé de nitrates. La photodégradation n'eut lieu que dans l'eau de marécage, où elle suivit une cinétique de dégradation de premier ordre, avec des demi-vies d'élimination de 55, 40, et 37 jours, respectivement, pour le monensin, la salinomycine, and la narasine. Dans une première étude, on évalua l'éfficacité d'élimination de ces composés par les deux systèmes FWS — un avec loam sablo-argileux et un avec sol sableux — et un système VF avec tourbe mousseuse de sphaignes. Le système FWS avec sol sableux comme substrat élimina significativement plus les trois antibiotiques (P< 0.01) que celui avec un loam sablo-argileux. La capacité des composés dissouts de pénétrer le profil sableux permit probablement des conditions plus favorables aux interactions sol-soluté. Ceci aurait ensuite permis une plus ample atténuation, principalement par sorption au sol sablonneux. Le rôle de la biodégradation, particulièrement dans le loam sablo-argileux, fut aussi noté. Cependant, comparé aux systèmes FWS, le système VF avec tourbe permit une élimination significativement plus élevée (P < 0.0001). Dans les trois systèmes, le monensin et la narasine s'avérèrent les composés le plus et le moins mobile, respectivement. Dans une seconde étude on évalua le potentiel d'élimination des trois antibiotiques grâce à un système HSSF pleine échelle avec sol sablonneux. Comparé au système FWS comportant le même substrat, le système HSSF élimina significativement (P < 0.01) plus de monensin (40% vs. 32%), salinomycine (49% vs. 34%) et narasine (49% vs. 38%). Un suivi de la température, du potentiel d'oxydo-réduction et de l'oxygène dissout, ne permirent pas de confirmer une contribution significative de la dégradation microbienne.En une dernière étude, des souches bactériennes compétentes à l'élimination de l'azote furent isolées d'un marécage exposé à des antibiotiques. Ces souches furent identifiées par détermination de la séquence nucléotidique d'ARNr 16s, et leur capacité de résister à ces composés pharmaceutiques fut évaluée. Une souche de Bacillus subtilis (BRAZ2B) s'avéra capable de se développer vigoureusement dans l'environnement du marécage exposé à ces composés.
