BACKGROUND Ileal motor patterns are adapted to the propulsion of viscous meal residue, such as bran, which accumulates in the distal ileum postprandially. AIMS To examine the effects of a second liquid/solid meal on ileal emptying. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Eleven healthy fasting subjects consumed a 1.47 MJ pancake containing 15 g bran and 5 MBq Technetium-99m labelled amberlite resin (meal A). ...

Hospital meal carts are used to deliver meals, drugs and some other materials to patients in the hospital environment. These carts which are moved manually by operators, the health workers, mostly do not comply with ergonomics guidelines and physical requirements of the equipment users in terms of anthropometry data of the region thus increasing the risk of musculoskeletal disorder among...

An experiment was conducted to deter­ mine apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) and standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) by grow­ ing pigs of P in canola meal, 00­rapeseed meal, and 00­rapeseed expellers. Canola meal and 00­rapeseed meal are the coproducts produced after the residual oil has been solvent extracted from the prepressed canola seeds and 00­rapeseeds, respectively, wh...

this study investigated the inhibitory effects of bacillus licheniformis on g1 and g2 aflatoxins in culture media and kilka fish meal. two concentrations of aflatoxins (8 and 12 ppb for g1 and g2) and (2 and 4 ml from aflatoxins standard per 50g of fish meal) were used in culture media and kilka fish meal respectively. the doses of bacillus were 3 and 4% for this experiment. changes of aflatoxi...

1. The rate of utilization (k) of labelled thyroxine increased when energy intake, given as standard pig meal, was doubled from 20 to 40 g/kg body-weight per d. When the bulk of food was increased, but not its energy content, the value of k did not change. Ambient temperature was constant throughout the experiment. 2. Groups of pigs were given pig meal at 20 g/kg body-weight, 40 g/kg body-weigh...

an experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of rapeseed meal and diet formulation based on total and digestible amino acid (aa) using 192 day old ross 308 male broiler chicks. experiment was carried out using a complete block design with 4*2 factorial arrangements. the factors included different levels of rapeseed meal (0, 10, 20 and 30%) and two method of aa form...

Breeding of yellow-seeded rapeseed (Brassica napus) is preferred over black-seeded rapeseed for the desirable properties of the former. This study evaluated the metabolites and nutritive values of black-seeded rapeseed meal and yellow-seeded meal from the progeny of a B. napus-Sinapis alba hybrid. Yellow-seed meal presented higher protein (35.46% vs. 30.29%), higher sucrose (7.85% vs. 7.29%), l...

Because food intake is a function of meal number and meal size and because gender-related hormones are involved in feeding regulation, we explored effects of orchiectomy and testosterone replacement on the relationship between meal number and size and changes in resulting feeding patterns in adult male rats, randomized into orchiectomy and sham-operation groups. A rat eater meter measured feedi...
