Five sheep (average BW 48 kg) with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were fed 63% roughage: 37% concentrate diets (CP = 14.5%) in a 5 x 5 Latin square design to study effects of urea and sodium bicarbonate supplementation on nutrient digestion and ruminal characteristics of defaunated sheep. Diets were fed twice daily (DMI = 1,076 g/d). Defaunation was accomplished with 25-ml doses of alkan...

Nghiên cứu được thực hiện nhằm xác định lượng ăn vào và khả năng tiêu hóa lá sắn dây (Pueraria thomsoni Benth.) vông (Erythrina variegate L.) của thỏ lai (New Zealand x Địa Phương). Mười sáu đực bố trí ngẫu nhiên 2 nghiệm thức với 8 lần lặp lại. Ở mỗi thức, tương ứng 100% hoặc dạng tươi. Kết quả thu cho thấy trong cả giai đoạn thí ở giống nhau (p>0,05). Tỷ lệ vật chất khô (DM), hữu cơ (OM), ...

this study was conducted to investigate the effect of physical and chemical processing on crude protein fractions of two varieties of canola (okapi and modena) and safflower (62 and zarfan) seed using cornel net carbohydrate and protein system and on protein subunits using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. formaldehyde was used as chemical treatment, while toasting and ...

This study presents the chemical composition and in vitro fermentation of five diets with different forage (alfalfa) to concentrate (faba bean) (F:C) ratios, F0:C100, F25:C75, F50:C50, F75:C25, F100:C0 on a dry matter (DM) basis. Results indicate that the chemical composition in term of organic matter (OM), ether extract (EE), crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fi...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of feeding pistachio hull (ph) as a source of tannin and polyethylene glycol (peg) supplementation on feed intake, nutrients digestibility, milk yield and compositions, blood lipid metabolits and milk fatty acids profile in saanen dairy goats. nine maltiparus saanen dairy goats were used in a 3 × 3 replicated latin square design with 21-d period...

Soybean hulls have been successfully fed to ruminant animals as an economical substitute for hay. This feedstuff is a source of highly digestible fiber that does not contain starch. The purpose of this trial was to evaluate soybean hulls as a replacement fiber in horse diets. Four cecally cannulated Quarter Horse geldings, aged 6 to 10 yr and averaging 502 kg, were used in a 4 x 4 Latin square ...

the effects of a multi enzyme were evaluated on performance and nutrient digestibility in african domesticated ostrich at 14 months ages. there were three treatments as; common diet (1), common diet plus multi enzyme (0.350 gkg -1) (2) and common diet plus multi enzyme (0.700 gkg -1) (3). 18 ostrich were used in this experiment (6 birds per treatment). there was significant effect of enzyme sup...

in order to investigate the effect of partial replacement of barley starch with beet pulp soluble fiber with or without roasted canola seed on apparent nutrient digestibility, dry matter intake, daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio and rumenal ph 24 arabian male lambs were used for 84 days in a completely randomized design with a 2×2 factorial arrangement. treatments had no significant effe...

Cardiovascular disease risk is associated with excess body weight and elevated plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations. This study examines how an alternate-day fasting (ADF) diet high (HF) or low (LF) in fat affects plasma FFA profiles in the context of weight loss, and changes in body composition and lipid profiles. After a 2-week weight maintenance period, 29 women (BMI 30-39.9 kg/m(2)) ...
