the scope for using sunflower cake in ration formulation was tested in 6 horses employed for equine tourism. three experimental diets providing the same amount of proteins and energy as the control diet were formulated using rising doses of sunflower cake (sd3: 0.3 kg; sd6: 0.6 kg and sd10: 1.0 kg). digestibility evaluation using internal markers showed that rising sunflower cake doses reduced ...

published data on the effects of essential oils (eo) on in vivo nutrient digestibility in sheep are contradictory. in 2 experiments, the effect of thymol and carvacrol on nutrient digestibility was studied in sheep fed with high (70%) or low (52%) concentrate diets, using incomplete latin square designs. the essential oils were mixed with the concentrate portion of the diet at the rate of 0.0, ...

ABSTRACT The objective was to evaluate the effect of water salinity and environmental temperature on nutrient consumption, digestibility, nitrogen balance, mineral excretion creole goats. Thirty-six males with an average age 5.0±0.6 months weight 20.0±2.3kg were housed in metabolic cages. They are distributed a completely randomized design, 2×3 type crossover (2 temperatures (T1 = 26±0.6ºC T2 3...

This study was designed to evaluate dry matter intake (DMI), ruminal fermentation, digesta outflow, omasal flow of N constituents, and total-tract digestibility in response increasing dietary lipid content derived from high-lipid by-product-based pellets for finishing beef cattle. Five ruminally cannulated heifers were used a 5 × Latin square design. Dietary treatments iso-nitrogenous with ethe...

The aim of this research was to analyze the physical and chemical properties rice bran with husk addition. percentage addition 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% 100%. Husks were grounded mixed homogeneously. mixture analyzed for properties, proximate analysis van Soest analysis. variables in study included visualization bran, specific gravity (SG), bulk density (BD), moisture cont...

One minute after instillation of 14C-estradiol-17 beta (14C-E2 17 beta) into selected sections of the gastrointestinal tract of swine, radioactive estradiol metabolites were present in blood collected from the portal and jugular veins. Ether was used to extract free but not conjugated estrogens. The percentage of plasma radioactivity that was ether extractable (EE) was low in portal plasma and ...

this study was conducted to determine the nutritive value of fresh and ensiled whole and partly stoned olive cake (oc) with or without molasses i.e., 0 and 50 gkg-1 on fresh basis. dry matter (dm), organic matter (om), crude protein (cp), neutral detergent fiber (ndf), acid detergent fiber (adf), lignin (sa), ether extract (ee), water soluble carbohydrates (wsc), and total phenols (tph) of all ...

the entomopathogenic fungus beauveria bassiana (bals.) vuill. is one of the important arthropod pathogens that can play an important role in the regulation of mite populations in agricultural ecosystems. in this study, the combined effect of a native isolate of fungus b. bassiana (eut105) and ether-extract of plant, ginkgo biloba was evaluated against the two-spotted spider mite, tetranychus ur...

The aim of the study was to compare efficiency organic matter degradation between composting and vermicomposting as well possibility making compost vermicompost using cattle manure. experiment conducted with two treatments, where one conventional (T1) another (T2) from sample composted materials collected at 0, 20, 40 60th day experiment. Parameter studied were dry (DM), crude fiber (CF), prote...

Essential oils (EOs) are secondary metabolites of plants with antimicrobial functions that can be used as silage additives, but their effectiveness has been inconsistent. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects EOs additives on nutritional quality, fermentative products, microbial population, and in vitro rumen fermentation. A total 17 articles consisting 113 studies (comparisons) w...
