With the intention of evaluating fecal and ileal digestibility crude palm oil (Elaeis guineensis), chicken oil, Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) at inclusion levels 3%, 6%, 9%, a total 480 female Ross 308 broiler chickens were used. Digestibility was assessed 21 days age for both diets fat sources. Total collection or indicator method with chromium oxide used digestibility, while digestibilit...

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of lysolecithin on performance and nutrient digestibility of nursery pigs and to determine the effects of fat encapsulation by spray drying in diets fed in either meal or pelleted form. In Exp. 1, 108 pigs (21 d of age; 5.96 +/- 0.16 kg BW) were allotted to one of four dietary treatments (as-fed basis): 1) control with no added lard, 2) cont...

Effect of texturized defatted meal of sunflower, soybean and flaxseed on quality characteristics of chapatti was investigated. Texturized defatted meal of sunflower, soybean and flaxseed was blended at 10%. 20%, 30% and 40% levels with wheat flour (atta) for making chapatti making. Chapattis were evaluated for physical, textural, sensory and functional properties. Proximate analysis of defatted...

I . A comparative study on the digestibility of beef, buffalo, camel and mutton fats was made withchicks during theqthweekof age. Each fat was addedto a low-fat dietat levels of 3,6and 9 yo. 2. The mean digestibilities of beef, buffalo, camel and mutton fats were 85.4, 72.6, 83-9 and 9 4 1 yo respectively. Thus mutton fat appeared to be significantly superior to other fats, whereas buffalo fat ...

A trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of fat emulsifier on fat utilization in broiler chickens using 240 days old chicks which were divided into 24 replicates in a 3×2 factorial arrangement under Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Experimental diets were formulated using 1, 2 or 3% fat with or without fat emulsifier (Lecithin) at 350 mg kgG1. The trial lasted for 35 days and was divided...

An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of the form of dietary fat (extracted or intact fat) and of dietary NDF on ileal and total tract endogenous losses of fat (ELF), on apparent ileal (AID) and apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of fat, and on true ileal (TID) and true total tract digestibility (TTTD) of fat in growing pigs. A cornstarch-based basal diet that contained 1.2...

One hundred twenty crossbred yearling steers (average weight = 445 +/- 32 kg) were used in an 84-d randomized complete block design experiment to determine the value of soybean hulls (SH) as a replacement for corn in concentrate diets formulated with or without added fat (lard). The steers were blocked by weight and alloted to one of eight treatments in a 4 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatmen...

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of rancidity and FFA in choice white grease (CWG) on growth performance and nutrient digestibility in nursery pigs. In Exp. 1,150 crossbred pigs (average initial BW of 6.8 kg and average initial age of 21 d) were used. Treatments (as-fed basis) were a corn-soybean meal-based control with no added fat, 6% CWG, and 6% CWG heated at 80 degree...

Four Holstein steers (261 +/- 2 kg) with cannulas in the rumen and proximal duodenum were used in a 4 x 4 Latin square experiment to evaluate the interaction of dietary Ca (.45 vs. 90%) and supplemental fat (0 vs 5% yellow grease) on characteristics of digestion. There were no treatment interactions (P > .10). Supplemental Ca did not influence (P > .10) digestibility of OM, NDF, starch, N, and ...
