Dried Rum Distillery Stillage in Broiler Rations

Bacterial chemotaxis to effluent from a rum distillery in tropical near-shore coastal waters.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Vibrio cholerae showed a strong positive chemotactic response towards rum distillery wastewaters (mostos) and a high oxygen uptake rate in the presence of this complex substrate. Rum slops stimulated only motility in Aeromonas hydrophila and Escherichia coli. The A. hydrophila and E. coli isolates were unable to oxidize mostos significantly.

Inclusion of Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) in Swine Rations

Introduction As the ethanol industry grows in Michigan and the U.S., so does the discussion about including distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) in swine rations. The DDGS byproduct has the potential to be a nutritious, cost effective replacement for corn, SBM and inorganic phosphorus. Much has been written about feeding DDGS recently in popular magazines and newspapers, including infor...

Short-term effects of lower oil dried distillers grains with solubles in laying hen rations.

Extraction of oil from dried distillers grains has become a common practice among US ethanol producers. The valuable oil has been diverted to markets other than poultry feed, leaving new dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) products higher in fiber and purportedly lower in ME. This study compared 3 DDGS products with 10.3, 7.3, or 5.2% ether extract, respectively, with a corn-soy contro...

Dried Distillers Grain with Solubles in Laying Hen and Pullet Rations

A study was conducted to test the inclusion rates of corn dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) in laying hen diets on egg production (EP) parameters for a full production cycle. Two hundred eighty-eight Bovan Single Comb White Leghorn laying hens were fed diets containing 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25% DDGS from 24 to 46 wk and 47 to 76 wk of age for Phase I and Phase II, respectively. The di...
