the objective of this study was to test whether the stimuli of osmotic pressure (op), vfa or ph in the omasum would affect the passage of digesta from the rumen and feed intake in sheep. five experements were carried out. different solutions with specific, op, vfa concentration and ph were infused into the omasal body. rumen digesta volumes and outflow rates (liquid and solid) were measured by ...

this study was carried out to determine the effects of immunogen as a prebiotic on growth-related parameters and gut micro-flora in r. kutum fry. a basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients supplemented with immunogen at 0, 1, 1.5, and 2 g kg-1 leading to four experimental diets.  fish were randomly distributed in 500 l fiberglass tanks (1×1×0.5 m). the experiment lasted for eight ...

in this paper, the removal of phenol by using aqueous solution in a low pressure reverse osmosis membrane was investigated. the effect of feed pressure, feed concentration, feed flow rate and feed ph on phenol rejection was investigated. the results showed that feed ph is the most affective parameter on the phenol rejection. rejection of phenol increased with increasing ph from 2 to 10 under th...

In the paper a genetic algorithm for feed rate profiles synthesis is proposed. An E. coli fed-batch fermentation process is considered. The feed rate profiles based on three different lengths of chromosomes are synthesized. A satisfactory result for the fermentation system due to economical effect and process effectiveness is achieved.
