Using nylon bag techniques, Cornell net carbohydrates and protein systems (CNCPS), scanning electron microscopy, the authors examined digestibility structure of Vicia ervilia (ervil, bitter vetch) after steam flaking, roasting, microwave processing. During in situ technique, samples were incubated at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48 h. For description ruminal DM (dry matter) CP (crude protein)...

The disappearance of total N, non-protein-N and amino acid-N after washing, rumen incubation and intestinal passage of sugarbeet pulp, maize-gluten feed, maize feed meal, palm kernel meal, soyabean hulls, soyabean meal, grass silage, maize silage and concentrate was measured in four dairy cows using nylon-bag techniques. Disappearance of amino acid-N after washing varied between feedstuffs from...

Five Yorkshire x Lacombe barrows (45 kg initial wt) fitted with duodenal cannulas approximately 10 cm from the pyloric sphincter were used to determine the influence of the pH of the predigestion solution (pH 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 or 2.5), pepsin activity (189 vs 377 IU/liter) and duration of predigestion (0, 1.5, 2.5 or 4.0 h) on the apparent digestibility of the protein in soybean meal (SBM), meal an...

In this study, the tensile and compressive behaviors of pure and hybrid composite laminates reinforced by basalt–nylon bi-woven intra-ply fabrics were experimentally investigated. Epoxy resin was used as the matrix material. The purpose of using this hybrid composite is to obtain superior characteristics by using the good strength property of basalt fiber with the excellent toughness of ny...

This study focuses on achieving high stiffness/strength and good FR characteristic of nylon 66/MCA/NC nanocomposites, prepared via melt compounding by twin screw extruder. A synergistic effect of flame retardant systems based on melamine cyanurate and zinc borate on the flammability and mechanical behaviours of crysnanoclay reinforced nylon 66 nanocomposites have been reported. Mechanical test ...

In this study, dry matter and crude protein in situ degradation data from different concentrate feeds were used to test the accuracy of effective degradability (ED) measures when using reduced ruminal incubation times compared with models based on seven or eight incubation times. The ED was estimated both with and without correction for nylon bag particle loss. The crude protein ED corrected fo...

Straw and animal manure are major organic waste materials from agricultural ecosystems. Different kinds of combined with straw (AM-S) may have varying effects on the decomposition, nutrient release, structural changes maize straw. Using Humic Cambisols soil as experimental area, decomposition characteristics under co-application were studied following nylon net bag landfill method. The experime...
