New technique may better detect flavor compounds of cheese
The taste of fermented foods such as cheese, yogurt, beer, yeast dough or soy sauce is very popular with consumers worldwide.
In addition to volatile aroma compounds, non-volatile substances also significantly contribute to fermented foods' characteristic taste profile. Above all, these include fragments of long protein molecules that are produced, for example, during microbial or enzymatic conversion (fermentation) of milk or grain protein, according to an announcement from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in Germany.

FDA approves first drug for ammonia gas reduction from manure
Beef producers may soon have a new tool to reduce ammonia gas emissions from feedlot waste after the U.S. Food & Drug Administration announced Nov. 6 the approval of Experior (lubabegron Type A medicated article), a beta-adrenergic agonist/antagonist drug that, when fed to beef cattle under specific conditions, results in less ammonia gas released as a byproduct of their waste.
FDA said this approval is the first time the agency has approved a drug that reduces gas emissions from an animal or its waste.

What does 2018 election mean for ag?
The hope is always for bipartisanship on Capitol Hill after this week's midterm elections solidified a split Congress, with Democrats controlling the House and Republicans maintaining power in the Senate. The question remains if there's an appetite for bipartisanship or whether more gridlock is on the menu.
"We have a window of time we could accomplish things by the end of 2019, and then you are in campaign mode, and the odds for getting things done become less and less as lawmakers focus more on controlling the White House," Roger Bernard, senior policy analyst for Informa Economics, said.

ADSA asks: Did You Know about S-PAC?
While we have
S-PAC® (Searchable Proceedings of Animal Conferences)
subscribers in nearly 40 countries and all attendees of the ADSA annual meeting, the Discover and many other Conferences are provided with S-PAC information, we've found that that some ADSA members may still not be aware of one of the significant benefits of ADSA membership, the opportunity to utilize S-PAC.
Included in your membership dues
is access through S-PAC to searchable Joint Annual Meeting abstracts for 1998-2016, ADSA annual meeting abstracts from 2017 and past ADSA meetings from 1935-1997, as well as ADSA divisional meeting abstracts
and
Members have the opportunity to subscribe to S-PAC at the deeply discounted ADSA member rate. Subscriptions run for 365 days from date of sign-up.
Professionals $75; Undergrads $5 and Grads $10
ADSA member rates are extended to ASAS, PSA and ARPAS members as well as members of other organizations and conferences who share their proceedings through S-PAC.
Corporate sustaining member and academic library subscriptions are also available, as S-PAC brings current real world science and its application into the classroom and the office.
S-PAC is the most comprehensive collection of domestic and international animal production and management conference proceedings in the world. It includes animal health, dairy foods and grazing conference proceedings as well. This unique, completely user searchable collection of conference proceedings and presentations is a must-have resource for animal scientists, veterinarians, academicians, consultants and members of industry around the world. It is a great teaching resource as well since it includes current real-world application of science. As of October, 2018, 61 conferences have contributed 636 sets of proceedings, with new conferences and proceedings added frequently. The value of S-PAC increases every time a conference and a set of proceedings is added. If one can't attend the multitude of conferences that S-PAC covers, S-PAC is the next best thing to being there! Not sure yet, then try S-PAC risk free with our "5 days for $5 offer."

ADSA ANNUAL MEETING - NEW IN 2019!
In response to member feedback, we are extending the meeting through Wednesday evening. Plan now to stay for Wednesday afternoon sessions and Wednesday evening social events!
The 2019 ADSA Annual Meeting program page has been updated to include the starting lineup of symposia and workshops, by day, along with descriptions of each, confirmed speakers as of today, and presentation titles (if available). Additional symposia are being finalized. We will update this page regularly with additions and confirmed speakers, so please check back often.
Please note that in addition to the six preconference symposia and workshops on Sunday, late-breaking abstracts will be presented on Sunday afternoon. This meeting is packed with dairy science from Sunday through Wednesday and we hope you can be there for all of it!
The housing site will open in November 2018, and registration will open in early February 2019. Abstract submissions are being accepted online now, and if you want to host an event in Cincinnati, please let us know by using the online form.
We look forward to your participation in the most comprehensive global dairy science meeting in the world, June 23 through 26, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Please be sure to visit the 2019 Annual Meeting website frequently for updates and help spread the word about this landmark meeting.
Here is what some of the 2018 Annual Meeting attendees had to say about the meeting:
"If you want to know what is coming down the road in dairy science, this is the place to be. The meeting is a great networking opportunity and an excellent mechanism to maintain and strengthen professional ties with dairy colleagues. This is a 'must do' for any dairy professional."
"As a graduate student, it was really exciting to see the great research going on around the world. It really does open your eyes to the amazing possibilities of dairy science."
"Most of my collaborations, and even job opportunities, have started in the ADSA meeting. I appreciate the community, updates, and interaction at this meeting."
Thank you and we hope to see you in Cincinnati!
