An experiment was conducted to evaluate Japanese quail performance under phase feeding CP regimes during growing and laying periods. A total number of 480 unsexed day-old Japanese quail chicks were equally divided into 4 groups of 3 replicates each. Four iso-caloric starter-grower basal diets (2900 Kcal ME/Kg diet) containing 24, 22, 20 and 18% CP were formulated. Four iso-caloric layer basal d...

REVOLUTIONS can bring both benefits and risks to the people they touch. The livestock revolution , arising from an increasing worldwide demand for animal products (specifically meat, poultry, and milk), is no different. This growing demand is especially prevalent in developing countries, which historically have consumed far less of animal products on a per capita basis than have developed count...

Meat and meat products are a good source of bioactive compounds with positive effect on human health such as vitamins, minerals, peptides or fatty acids. Growing food consumer awareness and intensified global meat producers competition puts pressure on creating new healthier meat products. In order to meet these expectations, producers use supplements with functional properties for animal diet ...

Purpose: checking the assimilation of beta-carotene from a nanostructured globe and influence 10% on productivity organoleptic qualities products. Materials methods. Experience was conducted basis Russian Pularka farm "Russian Pularia" Leningrad Region. 2 groups quail meat - egg direction Estonian breed were formed for 10 goals at age 50 days beginning production. All quails contained in same c...

As China's meat production is growing, the quality safety of meat food as an important human food sources has increasingly become a major issue which related to the national economy and people's livelihood. Using early warning technique, tracking and tracing techniques and so on in the key link of meat food production in order to fulfill quality control is an important method which can effectiv...

Low pathogenic Avian Influenza Viruses (LPAIVs) are a persistent threat to poultry and have zoonotic potential. Wild birds such as Ducks and Quails may serve as not only carrier but could be intermediate host for mutation of viruses into highly pathogenic forms. Present study compares pathogenesis of LPAIV H7N3 in chicken, ducks and quails. Thirty-two birds of each species were grouped accordin...

The study was conducted to determine the effect of varying protein levels and preservation method on internal egg qualities of Japanese quails. A total of 180 birds were randomly allotted into three dietary treatments in a completely randomized design (CRD) replicated six times. A factorial arrangement of 3x4x4 which involves 3 protein levels, 4 storage method and 4 time intervals was designed ...

To evaluate the action mode of Berberis vulgaris root extract in the alleviation of oxidative stress, female Japanese quails (n 180, aged 5 weeks) were reared, either at 22°C for 24 h/d (thermoneutral, TN) or 34°C for 8 h/d (heat stress, HS), and fed one of three diets: diets containing 0, 100 or 200 mg of B. vulgaris root extract per kg for 12 weeks. Exposure to HS depressed feed intake by 8·5...

Over the last decade, several clusters of scientists have been using animal cells in an attempt to grow meat. Known as in vitro, or cultured, meat, the technology involves tissue engineering muscle cells for potential consumption as food. Those supporting the technology articulate a diversity of potential benefits in producing meat in this way, which include environmental-, health-, innovation-...
