This study was carried out to investigate the effects of dietary putrescine (PUT) on broiler’s response fed low crude protein (CP) diets. A total of 192 male day old chicks were fed with four dietary treatments including two levels of PUT (0 and 0.03%) and two levels of CP (normal and low) with factorial combinations. Weekly growth performance, nutrient digestibility and intestinal morphology (...

A 21-day study was conducted to determine whether isoleucine might limit the performance of piglets fed low-crude protein (CP), amino acid (AA)-supplemented diets and to investigate the potential benefits of low-CP diets on gastrointestinal health in weaned pigs. Ninety-six piglets (initial BW = 6.44 ± 0.14 kg), housed four per pen, were randomly assigned to one of four diets, resulting in six ...

The effects of Ile and Val supplementation of a low-CP, corn-wheat-soybean meal-based piglet diet on growth performance, incidence of diarrhea, and N balance were studied using 60 Landrace x Duroc male piglets in a 4-wk experiment. The 60 individually caged piglets were divided into 5 dietary treatments, each consisting of 12 piglets. Diet 1 was a positive control diet (20% CP); diet 2 was a lo...

  Shirbot (Barbus grypus) as a species with high potential for aquaculture development recently propagated artificially in South Iran Aquaculture Research Center to extend the species diversity in polyculture system. To provide an effective economic diet for this species 9 experimental diets containing three crude protein levels (250, 300, and 350 g kg -1) and three metabolizable energy levels ...

Ruminal and abomasal cannulated mature wethers were fed 800 g daily of low quality bermudagrass (49 days of age, containing 8.6% crude protein) and used in a 4 x 4 latin square experiment to study the effects of different protein supplements on the daily quantity of protein and amino acids reaching the abomasum and on rumen microbial protein synthesis. Treatments were as follows: (1) control (l...

Four mature rumen and abomasal cannulated wethers were used in a 2 x 2 reversal experiment to study the effect of forage quality on daily quantity of abomasal protein and microbial protein synthesis. Diets were either high quality [HOo 16.4% crude protein (CP)] or low quality (LOo 9.3% CP) Coastal bermudagrass which provided 110.7 and 58.3 g CP intake daily, respectively. Non-ammonia CP reachin...

BACKGROUND Conduct problems (CP) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are often comorbid and have each been linked to 'unhealthy diet'. Early-life diet also associates with DNA methylation of the insulin-like growth factor 2 gene (IGF2), involved in fetal and neural development. We investigated the degree to which prenatal high-fat and -sugar diet might relate to ADHD symptoms vi...

Sixty-three Friesian heifers were assigned to three different diets (21 per group) of 11 MJ ME per kg DM containing low crude protein (CP, 142 g CP per kg DM) with high rumen protected protein (REP, 270 g REP per kg CP) (diet A), high-CP (183 g CP per kg DM) with low-REP (133 g REP per kg CP) (diet B) and high-CP (182 g CP per kg DM) with high-REP (267 g REP per kg CP) (diet C) to obtain livewe...

Breeding leaner pigs during the last decades may have changed pig's empty body (EB) composition, a key trait for elaborating feeding recommendations. This research aimed to provide new experimental data on changes in the chemical composition of the EB of pigs from 20 to 140 kg BW. In addition, the impact of a reduction in the dietary CP associated with lower lysine, methionine+cystine, threonin...
