High concentrate diets are fed to early and mid-lactation stages dairy ruminants to meet the energy demands for high milk production in modern milk industry. The present study evaluated the effects of a high concentrate diet on milk fat and milk composition, especially, cis-9, trans-11 CLA content in milk and gene expression of lactating goats. Eight mid-lactating goats with rumen fistula were ...

The recovery of high-quality, valuable end products from cheese whey is a very important industrial process. The aim of this study is to improve the recovered protein content of concentrate stream in cheese whey. The experiments were conducted by using ceramic ultrafiltration (UF) membrane followed by diafiltration (DF) process with a 15kDa molecular weight cut-off (MWCO). The volume concentrat...

The efficiency of MA recovery in the DIAMEX process has already been demonstrated using HAR. The next step aims at the demonstration of reprocessing from HAC as feed, in view of an industrial application. The volume reduction would reduce the size of the installation and thereby the costs of the process. The first step towards the demonstration of a DIAMEX process using HAC is the production of...

7 January 2013 P HYSICIANS have long sought alternatives to transfusion of allogeneic blood products for managing patients with or at risk of excessive blood loss. The complications of allogeneic blood, including transfusion reactions, transmission of infectious agents, and acute lung injury, are well known; however, the repletion of the cellular and soluble components of blood becomes necessar...

A heifer feeding trial evaluated the impact of high/low forage quality and high/low concentrate level nutrient-balanced diets on simultaneous odor and gas emissions from the manure. Gas concentration was determined using an infrared photoacoustic analyzer over a 24-hour period using a steady-state flux chamber setup containing urine:feces as-excreted from eight individual heifers. Odorous air s...

This thesis consists of studies concerning the effects of dry period energy feeding, and early lactation energy and protein feeding on the metabolic and hormonal status, tissue mobilisation and lactation performance in dairy cows. In all studies, restricted amounts of grass silage were fed during the dry period, and lead feeding with concentrate was applied during the last three weeks of pregna...

Vanilla ice cream contained 9.56% milk fat, 11.0% milk SNF, 13% beet sugar, and 4% 36 dextroseequivalent corn syrup solids. The control contained 3.74% protein and was not supplemented with milk protein concentrates. Treatments 2 and 3 (T2 and T3) were supplemented with milk protein concentrates and contained 40, 60 per cent increased protein level respectively. The ash and lactose content of a...
