The kinetics of nutrients digestion and development chyme characteristics in African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) were assessed response to fishmeal hydrolysation non-protein energy (NPE) sources. Four diets formulated contain starch or fat as NPE source, hydrolysed protein source a 2 × factorial design. Juvenile (average weight, 63 g) stocked glass experimental tanks connected common recircula...

five species of dominant halophyte plants including: salsola griffithii, chenopodium album, aeluropus logopoidies, alopecurus textillis and cardaria draba were sampled from sistan region at their late vegetative stage. the collected samples were dried at room temperature and ground, and their chemical components including: dry matter, organic matter, ash, crude protein, crude fat, as well as ce...

Human milk provides the best nutrition for newborn. Nowadays, more and women choose to collect freeze their own later use. However, there has been no consensus on freezing conditions standard criteria thawing. This study aimed evaluate effect of different freeze-thaw processes (frozen at −18 °C −60 30 d, followed by placing in air 4 10-h stationary, 25 1-h stationary shaking tepid water 45 1 mi...

Three growth trials and one digestion trial were conducted to compare the effect of dietary fat sources and combinations on starter pig performance, nutrient digestibility and intestinal morphology. Growth trials 1 and 2, utilizing a total of 324 weanling pigs (21 +/- 3 d), were conducted to determine the influence of addition of soybean oil, coconut oil, choice white grease, 50% soybean oil: 5...

The objectives of these studies were to predict the effects of roasting and extrusion temperatures of whole soybeans (SB) on intestinal protein digestibility in cattle. Intestinal digestibility was assessed with a two-stage in vitro or in situ ruminal incubation/precision-fed cecectomized rooster bioassay. In Exp. 1, whole SB (raw SB or SB roasted to 141, 149, or 157 degrees C exit temperature ...

The objective of this study were a) to compare the apparent total tract digestibility (TD) between non-cannulated (intact) and cannulated (steered ileo-cecal valve technique, SICV) pigs fed diets differing in energy density (Exp. 1) and b) to compare the direct vs marker (Cr2O3) methods for estimation of the TD and apparent ileal digestibility (ID) in SICV-cannulated pigs (Exp. 2). In Exp. 1, 2...

Five steers (mean BW 526 kg) fitted with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were used in a 5 x 6 Youden square design with 14-d periods. Diets contained chopped alfalfa hay, corn silage, and concentrate (25:35:40, DM basis). Treatments were 1) control (no added fat); 2) tallow (T), iodine value (IV) = 51.5; 3) partially hydrogenated tallow (PHT), IV = 30.7; 4) hydrogenated tallow (HT), IV = ...

In milk processing, special emphasis is directed to fostering the taste and healthy values of goat milk. Therapeutic properties of goat milk are very well known. Comparison of cow and goat milk at the level of chemical composition suggests significant differences in their physical and chemical characteristics. Smaller diameter of fat globules (natural homogeneity), high portion of essential ami...
