    Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging infectious disease that has resulted in a global pandemic and is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Zoonotic diseases are infections that are transmitted from animals to humans. COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 most likely originated in bats and transmitted to humans through a possible intermediate host. Based on published research so far, pangolins are considered the most likely intermediate hosts. Further studies are needed on different wild animal species, including pangolins that are sold at the same wet market or similar wet markets before concluding pangolins as definitive intermediate hosts. SARS-CoV-2 is capable of reverse zoonosis as well. Additional research is needed to understand the pathogenicity of the virus, especially in companion animals, modes of transmission, incubation period, contagious period, and zoonotic potential. Interdisciplinary one health approach handles these mosaic issues of emerging threats by integrating professionals from multiple disciplines like human medicine, veterinary medicine, environmental health, and social sciences. Given that the future outbreak of zoonotic diseases is inevitable, importance must be given for swift identification of the pathogen, source, and transmission methods. Countries should invest in identifying the hot spots for the origin of zoonotic diseases, enhance diagnostic capabilities, and rapid containment measures at local, regional, and national levels. The threat posed by emerging infectious diseases in modern-days also needs combined efforts internationally where a single discipline or nation cannot handle the burden alone.

    Abstract The mechanism of lactate-induced beef color darkening is unclear. Our objective was to evaluate the ability of mitochondria isolated from bovine cardiac muscle to utilize lactate as a fuel for respiration. Addition of lactate (4, 8, and 16 mM) to isolated bovine cardiac mitochondria resulted in state IV oxygen consumption at pH 7.2 and 25 degrees C measured using a Clark oxygen electrode. Combining mitochondria with lactate, LDH, and NAD increased state IV oxygen consumption compared with that of lactate alone (p < 0.05). Moreover, oxygen consumption resulting from the addition of lactate-LDH-NAD (0.2 mM each) was comparable to oxygen consumption resulting from the direct addition of NADH (0.2 mM) to mitochondria at pH 7.2. Rotenone reduced (p < 0.05) lactate-mediated darkening in bovine cardiac muscle homogenates. Lactate-induced beef color darkening may be due to increased oxygen consumption by mitochondria, which out-competes myoglobin for oxygen and results in dark colored muscle.

    Abstract Previous research suggests that lactate’s colour stabilizing effect in beef is through NADH production and antioxidant activity. However, no research has assessed lactate’s role in lamb colour. Hence, our objectives were to evaluate the effects of lactate on lamb surface discolouration, oxygen consumption, and metmyoglobin reduction. In experiment 1, lactate (final meat concentration=2.5%w/w) was added to ground lamb (n=20 carcasses) and patties were stored for 3days at 1°C in PVC packaging. Surface colour (CIE L∗ and a∗) and metmyoglobin reducing activity of ground lamb patties were measured. Addition of lactate improved colour stability and metmyoglobin reducing activity (p<0.05). In experiment 2, mitochondria were isolated from lamb longissimus muscle (n=3). Addition of lactate–LDH–NAD to mitochondria resulted in significant oxygen consumption and metmyoglobin reduction compared with mitochondrial controls without lactate (p<0.05). Lactate can improve the colour stability of lamb, possibly by increasing metmyoglobin reducing activity.
