Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of source of fatty acids (FA) fed as tallow or calcium salts of fish and palm oils (CaSFO) on performance of dairy cows. In experiment 1, 738 multiparous Holstein cows were fed a diet with either 18 g/kg of tallow or 19 g/kg of CaSFO to supply equal amounts of FA in two replicates per treatment. In experiment 2, 331 multiparous cows were fe...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the organogelation potential tallow fat (TF) and partially hydrolyzed (HTF) against saturated monoglyceride (MG) a + diglyceride mixture (MDG) as organogelators. TF itself created oleogel at 30% addition level, while HTF, MG MDG oleogels were prepared 10% levels. Fatty acid composition data showed that HTF (HTFO) quite similar those oleogels. Solid content,...

this trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of different dietary factors that affect egg cholesterol concentration in laying hens of 56 to 70 weeks of age. three hundred and ninety six hy-line w36 laying hens were subjected to 11 experimental treatments, each treatment consisting of 4 replicates, each replicate of 9 hens. dietary treatments included the control, made up of corn plus soy me...

Effects of supplementing growing steers consuming forage-based diets with high levels of partially hydrogenated tallow on feed intake, digestibility, live weight gain, and carcass characteristics were determined in this study. In Exp. 1, Holstein steer calves were fed bermudagrass hay alone (Control) and with a ground corn-based concentrate at .95% BW (DM basis) plus partially hydrogenated tall...

The aim of the present work was to assess the influence of dietary lipid source on fatty acid phospholipid profiles and on lipid mobilization. Forty male Wistar rats were divided into four groups and fed on high-fat diets which provided olive oil, sunflower oil, palm oil or beef tallow. All rats received the same amount of energy to avoid hyperphagia and differences in energy intake among group...

Previous experiments have shown lower abdominal and body fat deposition in broilers fed polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) compared with those fed saturated fatty acids (SFA) or monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). These changes in fat deposition may be related to different rates of lipid synthesis or lipid oxidation. In Experiment 1, in vivo lipogenesis of broilers fed different dietary fatty a...

Two finishing trials were conducted to compare the addition of fat from either wet or dry distillers byproducts (WDGS; DDGS) to that provided from one of two commercially available fat sources (corn oil, Trial 1; tallow, Trial 2). In Trial 1, feed conversion and ADG decreased linearly as level of corn oil increased, while feed conversion and ADG were improved numerically as the level of WDGS in...

I. Diets containing different proportions of skim milk and fat, either beef tallow or soyabean oil, supplemented with fat-soluble vitamins were given to 2-d-old pigs. Each fat source was used in three diets containing approximately 280, 350 and 420 g fat, and 260, 235 and 210 g protein/kg dry matter respectively. 2. The diets were given as a milk containing zoo g solids/l during a 26 d experime...

Female rats 4 weeks old were fed diets including beef tallow or safflower oil in combination with sucrose or rice starch. At 8 weeks of age, half the rats were orally administered 2 of estrogen (mestranol) in5 Ml of safflower oil and half were fed the vehicle only. After 10 to 14 days of estrogen treatment, rats were fasted and exsanguinated. Alterations were found in weight gain, liver weights...

Poultry fat has become a more economical source of energy than byproducts currently used. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary fat source (poultry fat or beef tallow) in finishing diets for cattle on the fatty acid composition of beef. Sixty Angus crossbred steers (410.8 kg initial BW) were stratified by source, blocked by weight, and assigned within block to ...
