Abstract Given the dynamic market for protein-based ingredients in pet food industry, demand continues to increase both plant- and animal-based options. Animal plant protein sources contain different amino acid profiles vary digestibility, which can affect quality provided animal. Our objective was evaluate apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) compare of canine diets differing source using...

in order to evaluate the efficiency of inoculation of chickpea seeds with mesorhizobium and application of nitrogen and zinc on yield and yield components of rainfed chickpea an experiment was carried out in research station of shirvan-chardavel, ilam. the experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (rcbd) with six treatments including mesorhizobium inoculation, nitrogen (40 kg...

background:extrauterine growth restriction remains a common and serious problem in newborns especially who are small, immature, and critically ill. very low birth weight infants (vlbw) had 97% and 40% growth failure at 36 weeks and 18-22 months post-conceptual age respectively. the postnatal development of premature infants is critically dependent on an adequate nutritional intake that mimics a...

previous work by other investigators indicates a direct relation between the amount of protein in the diet and the level of urea in the blood . however, the present report shows that the type of protein , apart from its level in the ration , also has an effect on blood urea concentrations. when adult male or female rats of two strains were fed a ration in which the only source of protein was wh...

the 24 maltiparous holstein dairy cows were allocated in a completely randomized design to study the effects of different level and source of sulfur supplement in close-up diets on blood metabolites, colostrums composition and liver performance. the mean body weight of the cows was 687.9 kg and the mean days until expected calving date was 21.8 d. the first treatment (t1) has contained 0.21% su...

this study was carried out to investigate the effects of dietary levels of an active phospholipids source on immune system response in broilers using 180 male ross 308 broilers chicks. experimental diets containing 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 % of active phospholipids were prepared in a way that metabolizable energy, protein and other nutrients was the same in them. blood samples we...
