The effects of CO2 injection and barrel temperatures on the physiochemical and antioxidant properties of extruded cereals (sorghum, barley, oats, and millet) were studied. Extrusion was carried out using a twin-screw extruder at different barrel temperatures (80, 110, and 140°C), CO2 injection (0 and 500 mL/min), screw speed of 200 rpm, and moisture content of 25%. Extrusion significantly incre...

Aim: The aim of this ex vivo study was to compare the amount debris extruded during retreatment using stainless steel hand files (Hedstroem files) and R-Endo Nickel Titanium rotary instruments. Methodology: Eighty single-rooted freshly extracted human mandibular premolars were divided into two groups consisting 40 teeth each. Retreatment performed with (Micro-Mega, Besançon, France) Hedstroem (...

The nutritive value of isonitrogenous and isoenergetic levels of these processed beans, raw NB-SOY and NB-SOY extruded at 121, 135 or 157OC was assessed by pig growth assay. The raw NB-SOY diet caused severe scouring and was fed only for two weeks. Growth rate and feed conversion of pigs fed extruded NB-SOY improved as the extrusion temperature increased to 135OC but declined with higher temper...

Replacing dietary grass silage (GS) with maize silage (MS) and dietary fat supplements may reduce milk concentration of specific saturated fatty acids (SFA) and can reduce methane production by dairy cows. The present study investigated the effect of feeding an extruded linseed supplement on milk fatty acid (FA) composition and methane production of lactating dairy cows, and whether basal forag...
