Newborn lambs (n = 45) at the Agricultural Research Institute of Northern Ireland were fed either 50 grams of commercial lamb milk replacer or 50 grams of commercial colostrum replacer (bovine origin) in 200 ml of water four times during the first 24 hours of life or were given ad libitum access to the ewe. Total plasma protein at 24 hours of age was highest in lambs allowed to suckle the ewe (...

This experiment aims to study the effects of dietary fat level during suckling period on growth performance and meat characteristics in twin lambs. Thirty pairs male Hu lambs were divided into two groups, namely high (HF) normal (NF). Lambs HF group fed milk replacer starter containing 26.89% 5.07% fat, whereas those NF 15.15% 2.80% respectively, from eight 60 days age. From 120 age, all a feed...

Forty-eight Holstein bull calves were assigned to a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized block design. Main effects were colostrum versus a serum-derived colostrum supplement, 0 versus 1 g of trypsin inhibitor added at the initial 2 feedings, and milk replacer containing 0 or 50% CP from whole egg. Calves were bled at 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24 h after birth for determination of...

An alternative protein ingredient based on spray-dried, hydrolyzed red blood cells was evaluated in calf milk replacers. Two experiments were conducted to determine the value of the ingredient on intake, growth, and feed efficiency in dairy calves. In experiment 1, Holstein bull calves (n = 120) were fed calf milk replacer containing 0, 11, 22, or 43% of crude protein as spray dried hydrolyzed ...

The problems associated with the consumption of high-fat foods have increased the requirement to use new formulations based on fat replacer. Inulin has textural properties and it’s a prebiotic source. Due to the cream’s wide usage in dairy industry, it is tried to make cream with textural and organoleptic characteristics that contains the least amount of calories. Meanwhile, Table cream (30%) w...

BACKGROUND Potentially, pâtés could be a functional food and are an important source of proteins, vitamin A, B complex vitamins and iron. Unfortunately, one problem in pâtés is the high level of animal fat, about 30%. Pâté with low-fat guinea fowl meat and animal fat replaced with inulin can result in this product being classified as a pro-health food. The objective of the present study was to ...

ABSTRACT: Mayonnaise is probably one of the most widely used sauces worldwide. The oil content of traditionally mayonnaise is more than 65%. Fat has a role in creating viscosity, color and texture but might cause many diseases and disorders in human. In this study the influence of modified wheat bran as a fat replacer on the rheological properties of low fat mayonnaise was studied and compared ...

UNLABELLED The first cause of death of dairy calves is often diarrhea which is mainly caused by pathogenic bacteria, which can result in excessive use of antibiotics. However, facing the increase concern by the industry and consumers, the use of antibiotics not only to control pathogens, but also to manipulate growth, has become a challenge. Alternative additives, such essential oils, have the ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical, physical and sensory characteristics of lowfat beef patties formulated by replacing different levels (25, 50, 75 and 100%) of fat with hydrated potato flakes. Uncooked and cooked beef patties formulated with potato flakes had higher (p#0.05) moisture, carbohydrate and ash content and lower (p#0.05) fat contents than that of the control. ...
