The present study evaluated the dose response of Buttiauxella phytase on apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of DM, Ca, and P in weaned pigs at 2 locations. Experimental diets fed to weaned pigs were a positive control (PC), a negative control (NC), and NC supplemented with increasing levels of Buttiauxella phytase. In Trial A, ATTD of P was 57.2% for PC, 32.5% for NC, and 59.4, 62.0, 63....

Abstract Myo-inositol is a breakdown product of phytate produced in the gut through action phytase. Although effect phytase-released phosphorus on growth performance animals has been well characterized, there still little understanding myo-inositol effects. The objectives this study were to determine effects added phytate-rich low-protein diet and apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) growi...

Abstract Introduction Orders such as vital signs (VS) and neurological checks (NC) contain frequency options to help clinicians align workflows with patient needs. However, these clinical decision support (CDS) systems often default around-the-clock, may over-accept leading unnecessary sleep disruptions. Methods We added two radio buttons VS/NC orders: q4 hour while awake (q4WA) TID (TIDWA). ga...

in this paper, we extend the construction of a fuzzy subgroup generated by a fuzzy subset to $l$-setting. this construction is illustrated by an example. we also prove that for an $l$-subset of a group, the subgroup generated by its level subset is the level subset of the subgroup generated by that $l$-subset provided the given $l$-subset possesses sup-property.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). The exact role of the NGF/TrkA signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of diabetic ED is largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the role of the NGF/TrkA signaling pathway in Sprague-Dawley rats with diabetic ED. Animals were divided into 2 groups: the normal group and the DM ED model group. The model gro...

The present experiment was conducted to compare the effect of Acacia nilotica bark extract and antibiotic on different biological parameters in broilers challenged with E. coli. Five hundred 2-week-old broiler chicks were divided into five treatments (Cont, NC, PC, AN-BE3, AN-BE5) ten replicates per treatment (10 replicate), extended over 2 weeks. All chicks, except that Cont coli (10$^{7}$ CFU...

This study investigated the effect of dietary supplementation with phytase on growth performance, fecal excretion, and compost nutrition broilers fed available phosphorus (avP)- calcium (Ca)-deficient diets. A total 750 one-day-old broiler chicks were randomly divided into five groups having ten replications in a floor house. Diets formulated positive control (PC), negative (NC; low avP Ca), NC...

A study was conducted to determine the additive effects of calcium (Ca) levels and the enzyme phytase, organic acids (citric, ascorbic acid), vitamin D on broiler performance and nutrient digestibility (d 3 1 to 21) in wheat-based diet. Broilers were fed the following diets at either 7.9, or 9 g/kg of dietary Ca with: 1) a negative control wheat-based diet, 3.15 g/kg available phosphorus (P) (N...

Prebiotics are defined as fermentable food ingredients that selectively stimulate beneficial bacteria in the lower gastrointestinal tract of the host. The purpose of this study was to assess growth performance of broilers and the cecal microbial populations of an antibiotic, BMD50, supplemented birds compared to broiler chickens fed the prebiotic, Biolex® MB40. Weight response data including fe...
