An accurate feed formulation is essential for optimizing feed efficiency and minimizing feed cost for swine and poultry production. Because energy and amino acid (AA) account for the major cost of swine and poultry diets, a precise determination of the availability of energy and AA in feedstuffs is essential for accurate diet formulations. Therefore, the methodology for determining the availabi...

ABSTRACT: Feed formulation is a basic need in the animal feed industry. In view of this, alternative foods have been used as way to minimize cost feed. Yam flour substitute for corn bran can meet energy requirements fish. The objective was study potential use yam flour, proportions that add quantities nutrients and conventional raw materials, order daily juveniles tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus...

F EED manufacturers are often forced by circumstances to focus on short-term concerns such as: How many tons were produced this week? How many customers do I have, or how much down time did I have this week? While important, shortterm problems can cause manufacturers to focus on solving problems rather than pursuing the company’s mission. Manufacturers who regularly examine their company’s miss...

BACKGROUND Astaxanthin is a xanthophyll carotenoid, which exhibits many important biological activities including a high degree of antioxidant capacity (AOC) and antibacterial activity, hence has a significant applicability in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. An attempt was made towards optimization of astaxanthin extraction conditions using three different extraction conditions an...

Display of proteins like feed enzymes at the surface of bacterial spore systems has a great potential use for animal feed. Feed enzymes increase the digestibility of nutrients, leading to greater efficiency in the manufacturing of animal products and minimizing the environmental 5 impact of increased animal production. To deliver their full potential in the gut, feed enzymes must survive the ha...

In this work, a platform of alginate beads loaded with Prednisolone in hypromellose/gellan gum capsules (F6/Cps) able to delay steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (SAID) release as needed for chronotherapy of rheumatoid arthritis is proposed. Rheumatoid arthritis, showing a worsening in symptoms in the morning upon waking, is a pathology that can benefit from chronotherapy. With the aim to maximiz...
