The purpose of the conducted research is to analyze methods, regimen and diet feeding calves three breeds. main factor growth development mode feeding. Feeding for months requires 180-200 kg fodder, 200-250 dry grass 600 silage or other loose feed. work was carried out over 18 months. Studied: Caucasian brown breed cows, Simmental their hybrid. It found that regardless same level feeding, all b...

Neuropeptide Y (NPY), colocalized with norepinephrine neuron, is known to modulate sympathetic activity and feeding behavior. Although experimental type 1 diabetes has increased sympathetic activity at the early part of the disease process, little effort was made so far to understand the correlation between NPY level in the hypothalamus and sympathetic activity in diabetes. Male Sprague Dawley ...

objective: the effects of dietary fish oil on semen quality and sperm fatty acid profiles during consumption of n-3 fatty acids as well as the persistency of fatty acids in ram’s sperm after removing dietary oil from the diet were investigated. materials and methods: in this experimental study, we randomly assigned 9 zandi rams to two groups (isoenergetic and isonitrogenous diets): control (ctr...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine whether healthy 2- to 3-day-old newborns have better memory of a spoken word after a typical feeding (breast milk or formula) than before a feeding and, if so, whether memory is related to blood glucose. METHODS A naturalistic study was conducted in which delayed recognition memory of a spoken word was examined in 60 healthy 2- to 3-day-o...

Spontaneously Diabetic Torii-fa/fa (SDT fatty) rat is a new model of obese type 2 diabetes. SDT fatty rat exhibits obesity associated with hyperphagia. In this study, SDT fatty rats were subjected to pair-feeding with SDT-+/+ (SDT) rats from 6 to 22 weeks of age. The ratio of visceral fat weight to subcutaneous fat weight (V/S) decreased at 12 weeks of age in the pair-feeding rats. The intraper...

OBJECTIVES International guidelines on infant feeding for HIV- positive mothers promote Exclusive Replacement Feeding (ERF) (infant formula or animal milk) or exclusive breastfeeding (with no supplements of any kind). A mixed feeding pattern, where breastfeeding is combined with other milks, liquid foods or solids, has been shown to increase the risk of transmission of HIV and is strongly disco...

Style of child feeding may be an important determinant of child nutrition and health outcomes. Responsive feeding refers to the level and kind of interaction between caregiver and child that lead to a positive feeding experience, adequate dietary intake, and enhanced developmental opportunities. Responsive feeding behaviors may include active physical help and verbalization during feeding, role...

Adaptive trade-offs between foraging and social behavior intuitively explain many aspects of individual decision-making. Given the intimate connection between social behavior and feeding/foraging at the behavioral level, we propose that social behaviors are linked to foraging on a mechanistic level, and that modifications of feeding circuits are crucial in the evolution of complex social behavi...

the aim of this study was to compare the effects of two levels of crude protein using poultry by-product meals (pbpm) fed during late gestation on the performance, blood metabolites, and colostrum composition of holstein dairy cows. sixteen multiparous cows 26±6 d before expected calving were assigned randomly to two treatments containing 1) 14% and 2) 16% crude protein. the cow’s bcs was 3.56 ...
