Phosphorus availability of rock phosphates as compared with feed-grade phosphates for swine

Biological availability of phosphorus in defluorinated phosphates with different phosphorus solubilities in neutral ammonium citrate for chicks and pigs.

Two experiments were conducted to assess the bioavailability of P in five sources of defluorinated phosphate (DFP) that differed in P solubility in neutral ammonium citrate (NAC). In Exp. 1, 384 2-d-old male chicks were fed a corn-cornstarch-dextrose-soybean meal basal diet (1.22% lysine, 1.00% Ca, .45% P) or the basal with .05 or .10% P from monosodium phosphate (MSP), or .10% P from DFP with ...

Calcium Phosphates as Delivery Systems for Bisphosphonates

Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the most utilized drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis, and are usefully employed also for other pathologies characterized by abnormally high bone resorption, including bone metastases. Due to the great affinity of these drugs for calcium ions, calcium phosphates are ideal delivery systems for local administration of BPs to bone, which is aimed to avoid/limit the un...

Production of potentially prebiotic condensed phosphates by phosphorus redox chemistry.

Adjusted as Published in: Afma Matrix, December 2001. Utilisation of feed phosphates: Fact or confusion?

Feedstuffs of plant origin do not contain enough digestible phosphorus to meet the requirements for animal production. For this reason additional inorganic P is added to animal diets. Feedstuffs of plant and animal origin as well as inorganic phosphate sources contain various amounts of phosphate that is available for biochemical functions. Therefore most Nutritionists include a safety factor t...
