The present study was conducted on efficiency of utilization of dietary energy for milk production in lactating crossbred cattle. 18 lactating crossbred cattle of early to mid-lactation, approximate body weight (375.39±23.43 kg), milk yield, parity and stage of lactation were divided into three groups of six animals each and were fed 0, 50 and 100% diammonium phosphate (DAP) in the mineral mixt...

This study investigated the effects of replacing soybean meal (SM) with canola meal (CM) and decreasing crude protein (‎CP) levels in CM based diets on performance of dairy cows when different sources of processed grains and CM were used. Canola meal was untreated or roasted at 130°C for 30 minutes and grains sources (corn and barley) were either ground or steamed-flaked. Eight Holstein cows (‎...

I. Reduced intake of energy or protein per se decreased riboflavin requirement of the chicks under restricted feeding regimens. 2. In severe riboflavin deficiency (2.26 mg/kg diet), efficiency of utilization of both energy and protein was decreased significantly under ad lib. conditions of feeding. 3. Efficiency of utilization of energy (but not protein) was decreased significantly in borderlin...

tissue nutrient supply may be synchronized with endogenous physiological rhythms to optimize animal and human health. glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity have endogenous rhythms that are not essentially dependent on food type and eating. human glucose tolerance declines as day comes into night. based on such evolutionary findings, large evening meals must be avoided to reduce risks of vis...

Quercetin is a flavonoid which activates oxidative metabolism. Quercetin may reduce weight gain by decreasing feed efficiency. The present study aims to evaluate weight gain, caloric intake and feed efficiency in exercised and sedentary rats supplemented with quercetin. Wistar rats were divided into four groups: quercetin-exercise training (QT), quercetin-sedentary (QS), placebo-exercise traini...

Nonprofit organizations implementing their strategies through multi-project environments are perennially confronted with the difficulties embedded into institutional design. Assessing social results is intrinsically dependent on missional depiction of change and it to be performed in settings project networks influenced by multiple stakeholder interests. In order balance efficiency, terms tripl...
