Many of the software systems we use for everyday purposes incorporate elements developed and maintained by third parties. These elements include not only code components and data bases but also dynamic data feeds from online data sources. Even though everyday software is not mission critical it must be dependable enough for its intended use. This is limited by the dependability of its constitut...

Genetically modified (GM) crops with higher yields and better quality are currently being used in the feeds of livestock and fishes. Despite the advantages, there are concerns about GM-feeds including their effect on animal health, performance and safety of the consumers of animal products like milk, meat, egg and fish. Studies are conducted to assess the feeding efficiency of GM-crops in lives...

The focus of the research was to determine how giant floater (Pyganodon grandis) worked as a feed ingredient in broiler production. A total 120 one-day-old Cobbs 500 were reared for 42 days, regardless sex. chicks weighed and brooded 14 days. distributed at random on fourteenth day four treatments with three replications, each containing ten chicks. They given varied proportions meal ingredient...

BACKGROUND A prelacteal feed is any food except mother's milk provided to a newborn before initiating breastfeeding. Prelacteal feeding is a major barrier to exclusive breastfeeding. It is a prevalent practice in Nepal. Little is known about the factors associated with providing prelacteal feeds to the Nepalese newborn. This study explored the factors associated with providing prelacteal feeds ...

AIM Preterm infants begin the transition from gastric tube feeds to sucking feeds around 34 weeks' postmenstrual age. We compared physiological stability in two bottle feeding positions, cradle hold versus side lying in preterm infants. METHODS Randomised crossover trial of infants <34 weeks' gestation at birth, ≥34 weeks' postmenstrual age at study and receiving at least two sucking feeds/da...

Two feeding trials were conducted to study the combined effects of (i) varying degrees of selective consumption and (ii) supplementation with cowpea (Trail 1) or groundnut haulms (Trial 2), on intake of organic matter (IOM) from sorghum stover, and total intake of digestible organic matter (IDOM). In both trials, 36 rams were allocated to 36 different treatments: six levels of feeding sorghum s...

in the present work, the effect of milk supplementation on viability of yogurt bacteria (streptococcus thermophilus and lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus) and probiotic bacteria (lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacteria) was studied during yogurt manufacture and thirty three days storage. incubation time to reach ph value of 4.5 was greatly affected by the addition of casein fract...
