Soybean oil (SO), rapeseed oil (RO), or two commercial fat products (FP1, FP2) were incorporated at 3.5% levels into four different corn-soybean meal mash broiler diets. Each of the four diets was fed to five replicates (pens) of broiler chickens for 42 d. After slaughtering the birds, samples of the abdominal fat, subcutaneous fat, and fat extracted from the thigh and the breast portion were c...

background and objective : mozzarella is a soft cheese belonging to the pasta filata family, containing 18-24 % fat. the objective of this study was to determine the effect lowering mozarella fat content to 6% and adding whey protein concentrate on the rheological properties of the low-fat cheese. materials and methods : low-fat mozzarella was produced using 3 fat replacers ( dairy-lo, 35% prot...

In Exp. 1, soybean hull samples were obtained from nine sources across the United States and analyzed for nutrient content to determine their suitability for inclusion in dog diets. Compositional data revealed variation in both the amount of total dietary fiber (TDF; 63.8 to 81.2%) in the soybean hulls and the ratio of insoluble:soluble fiber (5.0:1 to 15.4:1). Crude protein content varied wide...

Twenty-eight (8 with ruminal cannulas) lactating Holstein cows were assigned to seven 4 x 4 Latin squares in a 16-wk trial to study the effects on production and ruminal metabolism of feeding differing proportions of rumen-degraded protein (RDP) from soybean meal and urea. Diets contained [dry matter (DM) basis] 40% corn silage, 15% alfalfa silage, 28 to 30% high-moisture corn, plus varying lev...

This study was conducted to determine the effects of four different dietary fat sources on performance, fatty acids composition of abdominal fat, thigh skin, breast and thigh muscle of broiler chickens. Soybean oil (SO), poultry grease (PG), beef tallow (BT) and a mixture of soybean oil with poultry grease (SPG 1 : 1) were used as fat source. A total 395, 4-day-old broilers were randomly assign...

Lifestyle modifications such as increase in high-fat food consumption importantly increases the risks for cardiovascular disease. The principal objective of this study is to analyze effects different high fat diet (HFD) sources on haemodynamic parameters, lipid and oxidative profile, myeloperoxidase activity, markers inflammation (IL-6/pentraxin-3). HFD containing 20% fat, provided by lard (sat...

Previous research indicates a correlation between leaf area index (LAI) and yield of full-season soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill], which is a single crop planted early in the season. Leaf area index values of at least 3.5-4.0 in the reproductive stages are required for maximum potential yield. It is unknown how yields of double-crop soybean, which is planted late into harvested small grain fi...
