The sharp-nosed sand goby Favonigobius gymnauchen is one of the most dominant fish species around tidal flats and sandy beaches in Japan plays an important role food web. To clarify habitat utilization secondary production F. these waters, we investigated density, size compositions, feeding, prey availability beaches, a muddy estuary, seagrass bed Hiroshima Bay, central Seto Inland Sea, Japan. ...

Two hundred forty Angus crossbred steers were used to determine the influence of feeding various quantities of wet and dry distillers grains to finishing steers on carcass characteristics, meat quality, retail-case life of ground beef, and fatty acid profile of LM. Three replications of 5 dietary treatments were randomly applied to 15 pens in each of 2 yr. A finishing diet containing dry-rolled...

On-going fragmentation of tropical forest ecosystems and associated depletion of seed dispersers threatens the long-term survival of animal-dispersed plants. These threats do not only affect biodiversity and species abundance, but ultimately ecosystem functions and services. Thus, seed dispersers such as the straw-coloured fruit bat, E. helvum, which traverse long distances across fragmented la...

Abstract The most prevalent by-product produced by the brewery factory is brewer's spent grain (BSG). A total of 70%, 10%, and 20% BSG are used for animal feed, biogas production, landfills, respectively. Feeding wet can avoid cost drying. Wet as a replacement forage in diets animals. high moisture content ease deterioration leftover fresh feed drawbacks (3–5 days). provided low-cost despite it...

Abstract Wet winter conditions can create animal welfare issues in feedlots if the pen surface becomes a deep, wet, penetrable substrate. Feedlot pens with clay and gravel base ( N = 30) bedded 150 mm (W15) 300 (W30) depth of woodchips were compared to control treatment no bedding over 109-day feeding period, while irrigated supplement natural rainfall. The pad substrate was measured for variab...

The high moisture content of wet distillers’ grains with solubles (WDGS) has limited its feeding value despite the relatively nutritive value. co–ensiling whole–plant maize, as a complementary feed, was evaluated for growing lambs by formulating diets whose contents were: whole plant maize silage (WPMS) + sunflower oilcake meal (SOM) (control, WPMS SOM), dried (WPMS DDGS), and (WPM) co–ensiled ...

Nanofiber Polyethersulfone (PES) membrane fabrication using the electrospinning method incorporating dry/wet phase inversion was investigated. The process is a straightforward and versatile to produce one-dimensional nanostructures, especially nanofibers. electrospun’s outcome can be affected by various parameters solution parameters, making it an interesting study subject opportunity for custo...
