Mineral Contamination of Feed Samples by Grinding

Analysis of feed samples for aflatoxin B1 contamination by HPTLC - a validated method

Mycotoxins are by-product of fungal growth which occur naturally in a range of plant products. Due to ingestion of mycotoxins from feed by food producing animals, mycotoxin residues may occur in their products like milk, egg and meat. Mycotoxins have received considerable attention due to their significance in agricultural loss and human health. Amongst the mycotoxins that are known to cause hu...

Ultrasonic assisted creep feed grinding of Inconel

The paper details the effects of depth of cut and vibration amplitude when ultrasonic assisted (US) creep feed grinding Inconel 718 with an open structured alumina based wheel. The workpiece was actuated at a constant frequency (~20.5kHz) via a block sonotrode attached to a 1kW piezoelectric transducer-generator system. A full factorial experimental array comprising 12 tests was conducted invol...

THE EFFECT OF GRINDING TIME ON THE SPECIFIC SURFACE AREA DURING INTENSIVE GRINDING OF MINERAL POWDERS

Abstract: the changes of BET surface area of a mineral substance during intensive grinding process. Validity of the proposedmodel was tested by the experiments performed using a natural chalcopyrite mineral as well as the published data. Itwas shown that the model can predict the experimental results with a very good accuracy and can be used to predictwhat may happen under the similar experimen...

Deoxynivalenol (DON) Contamination of Feed and Grinding Fineness: Are There Interactive Implications on Stomach Integrity and Health of Piglets?

The common feed contaminant deoxynivalenol (DON) was reported to influence the morphology of the pars nonglandularis (PN) of porcine stomach. Moreover, finely ground feed is known to trigger the development of ulcers and other pathologies of PN while coarsely ground feed protects from such lesions. The interactions between grinding fineness and DON contamination of feed were not examined so far...
