Distiller grains with solubles (DDGs) is not a new or novel feed ingredient. However, increased supplies of distiller’s dried grains with solubles are anticipated throughout the US as a result of ethanol production and this has rekindled the interest in utilization of this corn co-product in animal feeds. DDGs as a feed ingredient has a moderate protein content. In the Midwest US, corn is the p...

It has been demonstrated that pollen grains contain NAD(P)H oxidases that induce oxidative stress in the airways, and this oxidative insult is critical for the development of allergic inflammation in sensitized mice. On the basis of this observation, we have examined whether pollen grain exposure triggers oxidative stress in dendritic cells (DCs), altering their functions. To test this hypothes...

this study was carried out to assess the effects of alfalfa hay level and replacing corn grain by other grains in starter on daily feed intake, average daily gain (adg) and feed efficiency (fe) of pre and post-weaning dairy calves during the pre and post-weaning periods. for this purpose, a database meta-analysis used in the present study. statistical analyses were performed using proc mixed in...

BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome poses a serious health threat in Asian countries. Rice is a staple food in Korea, and carbohydrate intake is associated with the risk of MetS. We hypothesized that various rice-eating patterns in a carbohydrate-based diet would have different effects on the risk of MetS. METHODS Participants were 26,006 subjects enrolled in the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Stud...

Multiple cropping (i.e. intercropping or mixed cropping) plays an important role in agriculture because of the effective utilization of resources, significantly enhancing crop productivity compared with that of monocultured crops. The study was planed to assess the effect of various concentrations (00, 30, 60, 90 kg ha(-1)) of phosphorous on the biochemical composition of grains of Hordeum vulg...

Introduction: Water liquid has been considered to be main fluid in cold Mars, though major sources of liquid water are not clearly found on Martian surfaces. Recently author (Y.M.) found carbon-bearing grains on plagioclase composition in druses of terrestrial volcanic basalts in Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi, Japan [1], where many scientists have been reported as normal “plagioclases” formed at hydro...

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the use of pulse grains in receiving diets for cattle. In Exp. 1, 8 Holstein (615 +/- 97 kg of initial BW) and 8 Angus-crossbred steers (403 +/- 73 kg of initial BW) fitted with ruminal and duodenal cannulas were blocked by breed and used in a randomized complete block design to assess the effects of pulse grain inclusion in receiving diets on intake, ...
