limited data exist about the production of extruded linseed as a feed ingredient in farm animal nutrition. the objective of this study was to produce and evaluate extruded linseed mixed with alfalfa hay, pistachio by-products, and sugar beet pulp or corn grain in different proportions of linseed: alfalfa hay: pistachio by-products at ratios of 70:15:15, 70:20:10, 70:10:20, and 80:10:10 for qual...

High-moisture extrusion of soy protein isolate generates a highly palatable meat substitute. No systematic evaluation of the nutritional quality of soy processed in this manner has been performed. This study compared the growth rate of male and female mice fed diets containing soy protein isolate without extrusion or with high-moisture extrusion. Other measures of overall growth and animal heal...

an experiment was conducted to examine the effect of different levels of extruded soybean and enzyme on broiler performance. in a completely randomized design with 2×3 factorial arrangement, 480 one day-old, ross broiler chickens were divided into 40 groups, 12 chicks per pen. treatments were consisting of combination of four levels of extruded soybean (0.0, 5.0, 10.0 and 15.0 %) and two levels...

The nutritive value of triticale distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) for broilers was investigated in 2 experiments. In experiment 1, four hundred male broilers housed in battery cages were fed diets including 15 or 30% triticale DDGS (extruded or not) or a basal diet, supplemented with or without a multi-enzyme complex from d 21 to 28. Birds were killed and ileal digesta was collected...

Apparent amino acid availability coefficients of several typical and novel feed ingredients were determined in rainbow trout using extruded diets and the faecal stripping technique. The ingredients were tested included five fish meals, three terrestrial animal by-products, five plant protein concentrates, four plant meals, and seven low-protein plant ingredients. Amino acid availability from th...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the cataract preventive effect of dietary histidine regimes in adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in seawater, both through manipulating the dietary histidine level and feeding period. Mean body weight of individually tagged Atlantic salmon at the start of the experiment was 1662 (sd 333) g. Low prevalence of mild cataracts were recorded in th...

Ten crossbred gilts fitted with simple T-cannulas at the distal ileum were used to determine the apparent and true ileal amino acid digestibilities in five different soybean products: extruded, jetsploded, micronized, or roasted full-fat soybeans (FFSB) and soybean meal (SBM). The gilts with an average initial body weight of 36 kg were fed the different diets according to a replicated 5 x 5 Lat...

Glucose metabolism was studied in 31 pregnant ewes fed mixtures (50:50) of chopped alfalfa hay and corn grain given in whole (HWC) or extruded form (HEC). Number of fetuses was 1 (n = 10), 2 (n = 11) or 3 (n = 10). Diets were supplied at three dietary levels: maintenance (1.0 M), 1.25 x maintenance (1.25 M) or twice maintenance (2.0 M). Glucose metabolism was estimated by a double isotope dilut...

Three isoproteic 35% crude protein diets were formulated with same basal ingredients and ranging levels of extruded soybean, beniseed and yellow maize meals and fed at 5% body weight to groups of genetically improved Heterobranchus longifilis juveniles of mean weight 79.57± 0.365g in nine out door concrete tanks each measuring 2x2x1m. The tanks were filled to 2/3 of their holding capacity with ...
