Comparison of the digestive efficiency of extruded diets fed to ferrets (Mustela putorius furo), dogs (Canis familiaris) and cats (Felis catus)*
The digestive tract of ferrets is anatomically simple, with no caecum, ileocolic valve or external differentiation between the transition of ileum and colon. The species has a short large intestine that provides minor contributions to the digestive process. Aiming to better understand the digestibility efficiency of ferrets, the present study compared the digestibility of extruded diets with di...
متن کاملInfluence of different cultivation methods on carbohydrate and lipid compositions and digestibility of energy of fruits and vegetables.
BACKGROUND Environmental as well as cultivation factors may greatly influence the chemical composition of plants. The main factors affecting the chemical composition of foodstuff are level and type of fertilizer (conventional and organic cultivation systems), location or soil type, and year of harvest. Organic foods are defined as products that are produced under controlled cultivation conditio...
متن کاملDigestion kinetics of carbohydrate fractions of citrus by-products
The present experiment was carried out to determine the digestion kinetics of carbohydrate fractions of citrus by-products. Grapefruit pulp (GP), lemon pulp (LE), lime pulp (LI) and orange pulp (OP) were the test feed. Digestion kinetic of whole citrus by-products and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) fraction and acid detergent fiber (ADF) fractions of citrus by-products were measured using the <e...
متن کاملAge-related changes in apparent digestibility in growing kittens.
The ability of the growing kitten to digest protein, fat, carbohydrate, dry-matter and energy were assessed. Kittens were divided into two groups; one group was fed a wet diet, the other a dry diet. Both groups were allowed ad libitum access to food. Apparent digestibility of the two diets, and kitten bodyweights were measured over a 24-week period. There were no significant differences in mean...
متن کاملImpact of variety type and particle size distribution on starch enzymatic hydrolysis and functional properties of tef flours.
Tef grain is becoming very attractive in the Western countries since it is a gluten-free grain with appreciated nutritional advantages. However there is little information of its functional properties and starch digestibility and how they are affected by variety type and particle size distribution. This work evaluates the effect of the grain variety and the mill used on tef flour physico-chemic...
