The replacement of fishmeal with plant protein sources has been studied in Penaeus vannamei. However, it only from the point view replacement, forgetting integral role that plays nutrition shrimp. This study aimed to determine if a supplement dietary phosphorus can sustain by blend feedstuffs, betaine and tauren as attractants still supporting homeostasis, growth, digestive enzymes, lipid-solub...

Corn, wheat, and soybean meal (SBM) have been primarily used as feedstuffs in animal feeding programs. However, it is necessary to explore evaluate alternative deal with variable costs the supply of these conventional feedstuffs. This study determined nutrient composition macadamia nut cake (MNC) its effect on growth performance broiler chickens fed at graded levels. A total 180 d-old chicks we...

Aflatoxins are secondary toxic metabolites produced by some Aspergillus spp. particularly, Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus that contaminate food and feed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the contamination of feedstuffs with Aspergillus spp. and detect genes involved in the aflatoxin biosynthesis pathway of A. flavus and A. parasiticus isolates. A total of 110 cow feed samples ...

The presence of microbial load and high fiber content in various non conventional feedstuffs limit their utilization in poultry feed. In the present study, the feedstuffs were treated with acidified sodium chlorite (ASC) and its impact on  the microbial load and metabolizable energy availability was assessed in  the chickens. The effect of supplementation of feed grade enzyme was also evaluated...
