Two experiments were carried out to determine the nutritive value and to evaluate the performance of growing rabbits fed on isoenergetic diets containing high moisture sorghum silage grain with low or high tannin levels. In the digestibility assay (experiment 1), the nutritive values of silages were determined with 30 New Zealand White rabbits, 15 males and 15 females, 55 days old, allotted in ...

The article presents data on the chemical, fatty acid composition of beef and pork meat in various types fattening. nutritive value obtained from grain traditional cattle feeding, as well concentrate-type was studied. Significant differences content protein, fat, individual acids are shown: saturated, unsaturated polyunsaturated. It has been established that concentrate type feeding leads to a ...

In order that dietitians and physicians be able to prescribe and give proper suggestions to individuals or groups, regarding their diet, it is desirable to have a knowledge about the nutritive value of the cooked food preparations of that particular place. Such values for South Indian districts have been reported by Devadas (1949), but so far no work has been done on this subject in this State....

on 29th November, 1937, and the following recommendation was made : 'Diet surveys have shown that intake of pulses in various parts of the country might be increased with resulting improvement in the nutritive value of diets based largely on cereals \ In this matter, certain questions arise : (1) Are all the common pulses equally good in nutritive value ? (2) Could they be tolerated in high pro...

The effect of diets containing as their protein component wheat gluten or casein, fed ad libitum to adult male rats for 1 to 6 days, after 6 days of protein deprivation, on the liver levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G8PD) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD) were studied. In rats fed the gluten diet the values of body weight gain, liver size, liver protein, liver xanthine oxi...
