The antioxidant activities of TBHQ, BHT and tocopherol mixtures at different concentrations (0, 100, 200, 400 mg/kg) have been evaluated by the application of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Rancimat apparatus. Rancimat apparatus that measures the secondary oxidation products was set at 110 ⁰C with an air flow of 18-20 L/h to measure the induction period (IP) of the samples. The DSC...

Aim: The present study was undertaken to describe the biotyping of Bacillus cereus isolated from different street vended mutton tikka and chutney samples. Materials and Methods: A total of 100 street vended food samples comprising of 60 mutton tikka and 40 chutney samples were tested. Results: The biotype 3 and biotype 4 showed the highest occurrence with, 29.63% and 25.93% isolates falling in ...

The aim of this experiment was to assess the effects of four different feeding programs designed to include tallow, a saturated fat at 0, 8, 12, and 28 d prior to slaughter on female broiler performance and the deposition, fatty acid profile, and melting point of abdominal fat. The following treatment groups were established according to dietary inclusion--from 21 to 49 d of age--of: sunflower ...

Tallow mainly consists of triglycerides, whose major constituents are derived from stearic, palmitic and oleic acids, its usage reduces production cost soap, adds lather stability hardness to soap. Laundry soaps were produced with variation on amount tallow (sourced cow, sheep goat) labelled as A, B, C, D E formulations. The respective tallows characterized in terms saponification value acid de...

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 ...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of saturated and unsaturated fats and their composition in growing and finishing periods on performance, carcass traits and blood lipids level in broiler chickens. In this experiment, 432 Ross 308 broilers were used from 11 up to 42 days in 9 treatments, 4 replicates and 12 birds in each replicate in growing (11-24 day...

Introduced plant success often is attributed to release from natural enemies in their new ranges. However, herbivores may accumulate over time and reduce invasiveness but evidence for this process to date is weak. We report here that enemy release is indeed limited to the early stages of introduction of the Chinese tallow tree (Sapium sebiferum). In bioassays and gardens along a geographical gr...

Thirty eight veal calves aged 7 weeks were fed milk replacers containing either coconut fat or tallow for a period of 15 weeks. Body weight gain was 114.2 10.3 and 115.7 22.5 kg (mean SD, n = 19, P > 0.05) for the calves fed the diets with either coconut fat or tallow, respectively. Faeces were collected during the last week of the trial. Apparent digestibility of crude fat was 93.3 4.9 and 91....
