In situ and digestion studies were conducted to evaluate feather meal (FTH), blood meal (BM), and meat and bone meal (MBM) for escape protein content, amino acid composition of the escape protein, true protein digestibility, and digestibility of the individual amino acids. Following 12 h of ruminal incubation, escape protein values were 73.5, 92.4, and 60.8% of CP for FTH, BM, and MBM, respecti...

Eight multicannulated heifers (average BW 415 +/- 34 kg) were used in a replicated 4 x 4 Latin square to evaluate fluid milk processing wash water solids (WWS) as a dietary N source. Heifers were fed corn/cottonseed hull-based diets containing soybean meal (control, 0% WWS N) or WWS replacing soybean meal at 33, 67, or 100% of supplemental dietary N. Total tract and ruminal DM and OM digestibil...

The effect of consuming different amounts of whey protein on appetite and energy intake was investigated in two separate studies using randomised, crossover designs. Healthy-weight men and women (range: BMI 19·0-25·0 kg/m², age 19·4-40·4 years) consumed one of four 400 ml liquid preloads, followed by an ad libitum test meal 90 min later. In study 1, preloads were 1675 kJ with 12·5, 25 or 50 % o...

palm date leaves were processed with lime in a processing reactor in a factorial arrangement of treatments (3 × 3) with 3 levels of temperatures (40, 80 and 100°c) and time periods (80, 160, and 240 minutes) in a completely randomized design. fermentation parameters measured using gas production technique. with increasing pretreatment time and temperature lignin content reduced from 13.0 percen...

Because of the widespread use of botanicals, it has become crucial for health professionals to improve their knowledge about safety problems. Several herbal medicines contain chemicals with allergenic properties responsible for contact dermatitis. Among these, one is Rosmarinus officinalis L. (rosemary), a plant used since ancient times in folk medicine; at the present time it is used worldwide...

Background: Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) as a member of the Lamiaceae family is a valuable aromatic and medicinal plant which is cultivated in large scale in Iran. Therefore, it is necessary to determine influence of factors affecting plant growth and drug metabolite production. Objectives: This experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of bio-stimulators compounds on growth a...

The effect of different extraction methods rosemary leaves on the total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant activity extracts was herein investigated. Firstly, solid-liquid conventional (CEM) microwave-assisted (MAE) were implemented in an effort to identify solvent microwave irradiation extract quality. obtained from CEM at room temperature, using ethanol/water 95:5 v/v, showed highest (IC...

This research is a nutritional assessment of a fungal (Aspergillus fumigatus 1-21A) single-cell protein (SCP) that was fed to rats and pigs. The sun-dried biomass resulted from fermentation of either fresh roots or cassava meal substrates and had the following percentage composition: crude protein (N x 6.25), 34.3; ether extract, 3.1; crude fiber, 20.0 ash, 4.3; N-free extract, 27.9; Ca, .20 an...

Good evaluation variables are needed to study postweaning lag in early weaned pigs. In this study, performance, digestibility, concentration of blood components and aerobic fecal microflora under different dietary regimens from weaning at 3 wk of age to 35 d of age are reported. Treatment 1 (T1) consisted of a corn-soybean meal starter diet. Pigs in treatment 2 (T2) received a steamed, rolled o...
