Ruminal and abomasal cannulated mature wethers were fed 800 g daily of low quality bermudagrass (49 days of age, containing 8.6% crude protein) and used in a 4 x 4 latin square experiment to study the effects of different protein supplements on the daily quantity of protein and amino acids reaching the abomasum and on rumen microbial protein synthesis. Treatments were as follows: (1) control (l...

In this study, dry fractionation process was proposed in order to obtain protein-enriched sunflower meal fractions. The includes two-stage grinding using a hammer mill and roll mill, of by sieving. Central composite design (CCD) with four variables on three levels within response surface methodology applied estimate the influence parameters (sieve openings diameter mill: 2, 4, 6 mm, gap: 0.15, ...

YILDIZ, E. and N. TODOROV, 2014. The comparison of the main protein sources for dairy cows. A review. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 20: 428-446 Review of now-a-day knowledge was made for nutritive value and effect on milk yield and composition of the main protein sources – soybean meal (SBM), sunflower meal (SFM), rapeseed (canola) meal (RSM), and dried distillers grain with solubles (DDGS) – in diets ...

The present study evaluates the influence of different amounts of fat added to starch on postprandial glucose metabolism (exogenous and endogenous). Nine women (24 (se 2) years old, BMI 20.4 (se 0.7) kg/m(2)) ingested 1 week apart 75 g glucose equivalent of (13)C-labelled starch in the form of pasta without (low fat; LF) or with 15 (medium fat; MF) or 40 (high fat; HF) g sunflower oil. During t...

The influence of the quality of dietary protein source on growth and protein synthesis and degradation rates was studied in the liver and white muscle of the European eel. Fish were fed Ž . isonitrogenous diets differing in protein source: one control contained fish meal, three others Ž . Ž . incorporating meat meal MM or sunflower meal SFM as the only protein source, and SFM Ž . supplemented w...
