Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Animal science
  • Biochemistry

Margalida Joy mainly focuses on Grazing, Animal science, Food science, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. Her Animal science research includes elements of Meal, Pasture and Anatomy. Her Pasture research focuses on subjects like Protein content, which are linked to Breed.

Margalida Joy combines subjects such as Forage and Live weight with her study of Food science. Margalida Joy has included themes like Vaccenic acid and Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma in her Internal medicine study. Her study in Endocrinology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both ACACA and Gene expression.

Her most cited work include:

  • Use of dietary vitamin E and selenium (Se) to increase the shelf life of modified atmosphere packaged light lamb meat. (93 citations)
  • An integrated sustainability assessment of mediterranean sheep farms with different degrees of intensification (91 citations)
  • Effects of Corn Processing on the Site and Extent of Digestion in Lactating Cows (85 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Margalida Joy mostly deals with Animal science, Grazing, Food science, Forage and Hay. Animal science is closely attributed to Straw in her study. Her studies in Grazing integrate themes in fields like Meal, Lactation, Pasture and Subcutaneous fat.

Her work in Food science covers topics such as Fatty acid composition which are related to areas like Intermuscular fat. Margalida Joy interconnects Silage, Rumen, Dry matter and Animal feed in the investigation of issues within Forage. Her Hay research incorporates elements of Postpartum period, Domestic sheep reproduction and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (52.29%)
  • Grazing (32.11%)
  • Food science (22.02%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Animal science (52.29%)
  • Fatty acid (14.68%)
  • Hay (16.51%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Animal science, Fatty acid, Hay, Food science and Carotenoid. The Animal science study combines topics in areas such as Fermentation, Forage and Grazing. Her Grazing study combines topics in areas such as Total mixed ration, Lactation, Pasture and Subcutaneous fat.

Margalida Joy incorporates Food science and Tocopherol in her studies. Her work focuses on many connections between Carotenoid and other disciplines, such as Retinol, that overlap with her field of interest in Lutein. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of FADS1, Breed is strongly linked to Intramuscular fat.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Rosemary distillation residues reduce lipid oxidation, increase alpha-tocopherol content and improve fatty acid profile of lamb meat. (21 citations)
  • Simultaneous determination of carotenoids, tocopherols, retinol and cholesterol in ovine lyophilised samples of milk, meat, and liver and in unprocessed/raw samples of fat. (11 citations)
  • Malondialdehyde determination in raw and processed meat products by UPLC-DAD and UPLC-FLD. (7 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Her primary areas of study are Fatty acid, Lipid oxidation, Hay, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Food science. Her work carried out in the field of Fatty acid brings together such families of science as Fermentation, Maturity and Animal science. Her work deals with themes such as Grazing, Forage, Pasture and Fatty acid composition, which intersect with Animal science.

Her Oxidative phosphorylation research extends to Hay, which is thematically connected. In her research, Margalida Joy performs multidisciplinary study on Polyunsaturated fatty acid and alpha-Tocopherol. Her work on Detection limit, Saponification and Analyte as part of her general Chromatography study is frequently connected to Fluorescence spectroscopy, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
