: ed u/c ata log Bypass protein is an important part of the diet of lactating cattle. The National Research Council recommends that bypass protein make up 34 to 36 percent of the total crude protein consumed by lactating cattle. Fish meal is high in crude protein (65 to 70 percent) and is a source of bypass protein (also called ruminally undegradable protein or RUP). It can be used in dairy rat...

A test meal for assessing the intraluminal phase of absorption in childhood has been validated. 132 test meals were administered to 110 patients aged 2 weeks to 18 years (mean age 4.3 years). 10 children with suspected malabsorption, who were proven to be normal after extensive investigation, constituted the control group. The activities of pancreatic enzymes, and the total and individual bile ...

Lysine caused a greater depression in growth of chicks fed a diet con taining casein than a diet containing a combination of safflower meal, corn gluten meal and soybean meal. Clycine, in the presence of arginine, appeared to exhibit a synergistic effect in alleviating the growth depression induced by an excess of lysine. Similarly, glycine supplementation decreased nitrogen retention in a diet...

1. Pigs (n 195) between 21 and 49 d of age were given a basal diet containing wheat, wheat gluten and cotton-seed meal which was supplemented with one of nine protein concentrates or free L-lysine. The diets were given ad lib. in two experiments. 2. Increasing the lysine content of the diets from 6.9 to 10.1 g/kg increased the weight gains of the pigs from 89 to 317 g/d in the first experiment....

Corn gluten meal (CGM) is a major coproduct of corn wet milling; it has value because of high protein. However, variation in composition and high P content reduce market value. Data that characterize gluten streams would be helpful in identifying key processing steps that could be modified to improve the quality of CGM and increase processing efficiency. Few data are published in the literature...

An experiment (3 trials) was conducted to determine the AME(n) of 15 corn co-products obtained from various wet and dry milling plants, and to develop prediction equations for AME(n) based on chemical composition. Co-products included distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS, n = 6), high-protein distillers dried grains (n = 2), corn germ (n = 2), corn germ meal, corn bran with solubles, cor...

Sixty multiprious Holstein cows were fed treatment diets from 11 to 40 d postpartum with corn silage as the forage. Treatment diets each contained a different supplemental protein: 1) solvent soybean meal; 2) extruded soy product; 3) combination of corn gluten meal and distillers dried grains with solubles; and 4) a combination of protein sources from diets 2 and 3. Covariate adjusted means for...

Objective: The aim of this experiment was to determine chemical composition, protein quality of corn gluten meal (CGM) and its effect on growth performance of broiler chicks. Methods: Chemical composition and nitrogen corrected true metabolizable energy of CGM was determined by standard and precision-fed cockerel assay methods.  For evaluating of protein quality, 90 male broiler chicks in a com...

A total of 186 samples comprising of poultry feed ingredients (n=114) and finished poultry feeds (n=72) were analyzed for the detection of total aflatoxin (TA) and ochratoxin A (OTA). The concentrations of TA and OTA in the samples were determined using direct competitive Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Overall incidence of TA was recorded as 80.64% (n=150/186); whereas, in the feed ...
