The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance and digestibility diets containing different levels crude propolis for growing rabbits. Forty-eight New Zealand White rabbits, 43 days old, both genders, were used, distributed in a completely randomized design. There four with inclusion (0.0; 0.5; 1.0 1.5%). no statistical difference regarding (p = 0.85), as well variables dry matter ...

Benefits to microbial fermentation in the colon and as a consequence less flatulence can be promoted for the health of adult dogs according to the amount and protein source. The present study evaluated different protein sources in dry food for brachycephalic dogs regarding microbial fermentation and nutrient digestibility. Four dry dog foods with similar protein content were formulated for adul...

Abstract Three experiments were done with different particle sizes of corn feed on its zootechnical performance, passing rate and apparent digestibility juvenile tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum). In the first, 200 juveniles used distributed in 20 tanks (220 L), 10 fish per unit (four replicates). The experimental system to record passage time was composed five incubators L. second, 75 55 days (t...

The objectives of this experiment were to measure intestinal digestibility of AA in rumen undegradable protein (RUP-AA) in soybean meal (SBM) and expeller SBM (SoyPlus, West Central, Ralston, IA; SP) and to determine if these feeds contain a constant protein fraction that is undegradable in the rumen and indigestible in the small intestine, as assumed in the French Institut National de la Reche...

Cotten, Bradley M. M.S., Purdue University, May 2015. Investigating the amino acid digestibility of alternative protein sources and determining the impact of dietary fiber on energy, nitrogen, and amino acid digestibility in growing pigs. Major Professor: Olayiwola Adeola. Three experiments were designed to quantify the nitrogen (N) and amino acid (AA) digestibility of various protein sources f...

An increased protein content and less digestible protein sources in the diet can induce bad faecal odour. The present study investigated the effect of adding prebiotics to dog diets enriched with animal-derived protein sources on apparent digestibilities and faecal ammonia concentration. In three subsequent periods eight healthy beagle dogs were fed a commercial dog diet that was gradually supp...

Metabolizable protein (MP) supply and amino acid balance in the intestine were manipulated through selection of highly digestible rumen-undegradable protein (RUP) sources and protected methionine (Met) supplementation. Four ruminallycannulated, multiparous Holstein cows averaging 193±13 days in milk were used in a 4×4 Latin square design to assess N utilization and milk production responses to ...

In order to determination of ileum apparent and true digestibility of two samples of poultry by product meal, an experiment was conducted with a total of 60 day-old broiler chicks, Ross 308 strain. Poultry by-product meal was prepared from two slaughter house in Alborz province. Samples were sent to laboratory for determination of chemical analysis. The birds received commercial broiler starter...
