An experiment was conducted with the objective of measuring the concentrations of total milk solids (TMS), CP, and 5'monophosphate nucleotides in sow colostrum and milk. Twelve multiparous sows (Landrace x Yorkshire x Duroc) were used. Litter size was standardized at 11 piglets for all sows at farrowing. Sows were fed an 18.45% CP corn-soybean meal-based diet throughout lactation. The experimen...

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to compare the dry matter intake, milk yield and quality, physiological biochemical parameters in Holstein (n=10) Jersey cows under heat stress insolation, two treatments: CL - cooling by ventilation sprinkling HS insolation. Data were submitted ANOVA. There an interaction between treatment breed day effect for intake. For consumption % body weight, consu...

AIM The aim of this study was to assess the effect of microclimate alteration on temperature-humidity index (THI), milk yield, and milk composition of Murrah buffaloes during summer for a period of 90-day from March to May-2014 at Buffalo Research Station, Venkataramannagudem, Andhra Pradesh, India. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 40 lactating Murrah buffaloes were selected having similar bo...

mango (mangifera indica l.) production is on the rise in various subtropical zones throughout the world. the cultivation of this fruit tree is feasible along the coast of granada, where some 1,500 ha are presently grown. in 2006, the eu exported 118 thousand tonnes of mangoes at a value of 131 million euros. this study was conducted to assess the physico-chemical quality characteristics of some...

The effect of membrane molecular weight cut off (MWCO) at three levels (10, 20 & 50 kD) on dynamic behavior of permeate flux (JP), hydraulic resistances (total hydraulic resistance, RT; reversible fouling resistance, Rrf; irreversible fouling resistance, Rif and membrane hydraulic resistance, Rm) and milk solutes rejection (protein, R<s...

The Colorado River is a principal source of water for 40 million people and farmlands in seven states the western US Republic Mexico. river has been under intense pressure from effects climate change anthropogenic activities associated with population growth leading to elevated total dissolved solid (TDS) suspended (TSS) concentrations. Elevated TDS- TSS-related issues basin have direct negativ...

the effect of membrane molecular weight cut off (mwco) at three levels (10, 20 &amp; 50 kd) on dynamic behavior of permeate flux (jp), hydraulic resistances (total hydraulic resistance, rt; reversible fouling resistance, rrf; irreversible fouling resistance, rif and membrane hydraulic resistance, rm) and milk solutes rejection (protein, rp; fat, rf; lactose, rl; minerals, rm and total solids, r...

BACKGROUND Despite scarce scientific evidence, current feeding guidelines recommend delayed introduction of solids for the prevention of asthma and allergy. AIMS To explore whether late introduction of solids is protective against the development of asthma, eczema, and atopy. METHODS A total of 642 children were recruited before birth and followed to the age of 5(1/2) years. Main outcome me...

Replacing dietary starch with sugar has been reported to improve production in dairy cows. Two sets of 24 Holstein cows averaging 41 kg/d of milk were fed a covariate diet, blocked by days in milk, and randomly assigned in 2 phases to 4 groups of 6 cows each. Cows were fed experimental diets containing [dry matter (DM) basis]: 39% alfalfa silage, 21% corn silage, 21% rolled high-moisture shelle...
