Use of soy protein concentrate and carboxy methyl cellulose as fat substitutes in the production Beji-Bersagh cake

The present study was conducted to 1) identify the natural source of feed contamination by zearalenone (ZEN), which was suspected to have caused persistently increased urinary ZEN concentrations in one of our experimental cattle herds, and 2) evaluate the effects of intervention against this source of contamination. As an experimental model, a fattening Japanese Black cattle herd showing persis...

This study was conducted to investigate the nutrient digestibility and lactation performance when alfalfa was replaced with rice straw or corn stover in the diet of lactating cows. Forty-five multiparous Holstein dairy cows were blocked based on days in milk (164 ± 24.8 d; mean ± standard deviation) and milk yield (29.7 ± 4.7 kg; mean ± standard deviation) and were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 t...

The objective of this study was to determine predictive models of rice functionality from protein and starch chemistry data. One long-grain rice variety (Cocodrie) was harvested from two fields in Arkansas. Rice was harvested from 8 locations in each field. Samples were then stored at 21oC/50% RH until equilibrated to a storage moisture content of 12%. Texture properties were measured using a T...

Four Thai - rumen fistulated male swamp buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis), about four years old with 400±20 kg liveweight, were randomly assigned according to a 4×4 Latin square design to receive dietary treatments. The treatments were: ground corn cob (GCC) replacement for cassava chip (CC) in concentrate at 0% (T1); GCC replacement at 33% (T2); GCC replacement at 67% (T3); and GCC replacement at 10...

Optimization of enzymatic hydrolysis conditions contalupe (Cucumis melo var cantalupensis) seed protein Concentrate to achieve maximum antioxidant activity

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of isolated protein from white rice on lipid metabolism in a hypercholesterolemic animal model. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups and fed either a normal diet or a high-cholesterol diet (HCD) containing either casein or isolated rice protein for 4 weeks. Compared with rats fed a HCD with casein, the total cholesterol (TC...

The investigation was expected to assess various mineral mixture supplementation impacts on Brahman crossbred cows' blood biochemical, hematological profiles and pregnancy rate. This study used ninety cows divided into three dietary treatment groups (n = 30/group). treatments were: Concentrate rice straw only as control treatment; diet + A-formulation MM-A B-formulation MM-B treatment. concentr...
