in the first experiment, twelve species of the most plentiful and fresh seaweeds and one species of seagrass from the beach were collected at kingston, south australia. all species were then separately sun-and oven-dried and ground. the ground samples were analysed for dry matter, ash, organic matter, crude protein, crude fibers, ether extract and digestibility in vitro. the digestible and ...

GEORGIEVA, V., S. CHOBANOVA, N. TODOROV and D. PAVLOV, 2014. Effect of dietary crude fiber on endogenous dry matter and nitrogen excretion in cockerels. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci. 20: 903-908 The experiments were carried out with 10 cecectomisеd cockerels for each diet. They are force fed by method of Sibbald (1986) with nitrogen free diets of pure nutrients and with sunflower meal with different cru...

The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects of fiber level from alfalfa meal and collection period on intestinal nutrient and energy flow, and hindgut fermentation in growing pigs. Twenty-four pigs (initial BW = 21.4 ± 1.5 kg) were prepared by T-cannula insertion into the distal ileum and allotted to 4 treatments. The pigs were provided a corn-soybean meal control diet or a di...

Twenty-one genetically lean, obese or contemporary slaughter weight castrated male pigs (6 mo old; seven of each genotype) were assigned to individual tether stalls and fed either a control diet (low fiber) or a diet containing 80% alfalfa meal (high fiber) at 1.50% of initial body weight for 71 d (1.75% for d 1 to 4). Apparent dry matter digestibility of the diets was estimated by determining ...

Health concerns led to a shift toward the consumption of high dietary fiber bread. Additionally, climate change and supply chain have investigation new sources utilizing waste products or co-products various crops, such as hazelnuts. The utilization hazelnut skin also presents value-adding opportunity for producers processors. This research aims investigate source enhance nutritional quality so...

The objective of the study was to examine the effect of growth-promoting technologies (GP) on Longissimus lumborum steak tenderness, muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA), and collagen solubility. Crossbred feedlot heifers (n = 33; initial BW 464 ± 6 kg) were blocked by BW and assigned to 1 of 3 treatments: no GP (CON; n = 11); implant, no zilpaterol hydrochloride (IMP; n = 11); implant and z...

Clostridium cellulovorans, an anaerobic bacterium, produces a small nonenzymatic protein called HbpA, which has a surface layer homology domain and a type I cohesin domain similar to those found in the cellulosomal scaffolding protein CbpA. In this study, we demonstrated that HbpA could bind to cell wall fragments from C. cellulovorans and insoluble polysaccharides and form a complex with cellu...

Soybean has good nutritional and functional properties, which are essential for human physiology. Okara, a residue from soybean processing industries distinct profile of nutrients phytochemicals. Therefore, the current study was planned to investigate importance okara. In first phase this study, okara isolated characterized in terms protein, fat, ash, soluble dietary fiber, insoluble fiber. Fur...
