The In’s and Out’s of Digestion in the Horse
نویسنده
چکیده
Digestion begins with the prehension (grasping) of food by the lips, tongue and teeth. Horses have very mobile lips that help them select desirable feeds and avoid those that are undesirable. Many of us have witnessed this lip dexterity—ever wonder how some horses skillfully sort out powdered medications you have tried to hide in their sweet feed, or what about the soggy pellets left behind in the feed tub that were deemed unworthy?

A new kinetic model for biogas production from co-digestion by batch mode
Coming out from the growth kinetics, the Gompertz model has been developed and considered as the best one for simulating the biogas production from anaerobic digestion. However, the model has failed to describe the starting point of the process, and no-sense of lag phase constant has been pointed out. Thus, the goal of this study is to develop a new kinetic model of biogas production with meani...

Kinetic models which can express the behaviors of hydrolysis and biogas generation more precisely than the conventional models were developed. The developed models were evaluated based on the experimental data of six batch reactors. Anaerobic digestion test was co-digestion of food and vegetable waste with inoculating horse dung by 15% of the total wet weight, at the temperature of 37o</su...
متن کاملStudying of horse motifs in potteries oc Saljuk era
In Iranian art, the horse is a solar symbol of the spiritual radiance of resurrection and life, and Muslims associate it with happiness and joy. With the development of pottery in the Seljuk period and with a brief look at the pottery left from this period, the horse motif has been depicted in abundance in the form of scenes such as riding, hunting, war, and literary themes. The artists were ab...
متن کاملMaintenance of horse embryonic stem cells in different conditions
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are originally derived from the ICM of blastocysts and are characterized by their ability to self-renew and their pluripotencies. Only a few reports have been published on ESC isolations and line establishment in animals, even fewer in horses. However, it is still important to isolate equine ESCs for animal biotechnology and therapeutic applications. In the present s...
