The study was conducted to determine the effects of supplementing probiotics and concentrates on intake growth performance Sahelian does fed Brachiaria decumbens grass. Twenty-four averaging one year weighing 13.3 ± 1.16 kg were assigned randomly in a 2 × factorial arrangement four treatments Completely Randomized Design with 6 replicates used measure live weight changes for 14 weeks. factors l...

Treating ruminant feeds with exogenous fibrolytic enzymes may potentially increase forage cell wall degradability and thus feed efficiency. In nature, fungi biosynthesize lignocellulolytic that can break down lignocellulosic material into its sugar components, thereby providing ready fermentable substrates. This work showed the in vitro activity of three Trichoderma strains (T. atroviride strai...

An improved methodology is presented for assessing the economic feasibility and effectiveness of recycling industrial waste. The based on break-even control mechanism, but at same time provides introduction new evaluation criteria such as threshold conditionality degree ore substitution. Based an analysis, it becomes possible to more precisely predict efficiency. A refined determination lower l...

There are no large-scale data available describing the increments obtained with platelet concentrates stored for varying durations. Platelet concentrates prepared by standard techniques were stored at 22 degrees C with horizontal agitation in PL-732 bags and administered to clinically stable, nonalloimmunized recipients known to respond well to random donor platelet transfusions. The platelet c...

The mode of furfural accumulation was determined in aseptically filled containers of single-strength orange juice and concentrates during storage at six different temperatures. Results showed that furfural accumulated in orange juice more rapidly than in concentrates of 34,44, and 58 OBrix. There was 4 times the amount of furfural in orange juice (12 "Brix) than in concentrate (58 "Brix) stored...

Repeated exposure to foreign human leukocyte antigens (HLA) present on both platelets and leukocytes often results in refractoriness to transfusions of platelet concentrates. Evidence now exists which suggests that the leukocytes are more immunogenic and that their removal from blood products may delay or prevent the development of refractoriness. In this study, the ability of three blood filte...

Recombinant factor VIII and factor IX concentrates, human-plasma–derived albumin, and samples from previously untreated patients with hemophilia were examined for the presence of TT virus (TTV) by using polymerase chain reaction testing. Blood samples from the patients were obtained prospectively before and every 3 to 6 months after therapy was begun. TTV was detected in 23.5% of the recombinan...

—Taurine has been demonstrated to be conditionally indispensable for several carnivorous fish species. Current trends in trout production include decreasing levels of fish-meal content in feeds, along with faster growing strains of fish. Taurine may be a limiting nutrient in support of elevated planes of growth for rainbow trout. A 9-wk feeding trial was conducted using a factorial treatment de...

The main feature of this new approach to platelet freezing is a controlled rate of addition and postthaw removal of 5#{176}/odimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). When DMSO was removed from fresh nonfrozen platelet concentrates before transfusion, no adverse effect on posttransfusion survival was observed. The 51Cr recovery of autologous fresh platelet concentrates in vivo was 65#{176}/o ± 5#{176}/o, while...
