Simmental x Angus weanling heifers (n = 96; 239 +/- 2.3 kg) were used in four replications to evaluate three dietary treatments in Trial 1. Treatments were cracked corn-hay diets supplemented with one of three corn milling industry coproducts: dry corn gluten feed (DCGF), dried distillers grains (DDG), and a new modified corn fiber (MCF). In Trial 2, ruminally cannulated mature crossbred beef s...

A retrospective analysis was carried out to identify factors associated with delay in diagnosis of Kawasaki disease in a tertiary care pediatric hospital setting in Chennai, India. Over a period of 2 years, a total of 37 cases were studied. The cases were divided into Early Diagnosis Group (EDG) and Delayed Diagnosis Group (DDG) with the cut-off for early diagnosis being ten days. A greater pro...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the different levels inclusion corn DDG in laying hens diet and its effects on performance, egg quality, yolk pigmentation economic analysis. A hundred fifty (Hisex Brown) were distributed a completely randomized design with five treatments six replicates, birds per experimental unit. formulations met nutritional requirements chickens, using following...

During the winters of 2008 and 2009, a study was conducted at the Texas AgriLife Research facilities in Bushland, Texas, to evaluate dried distillers grains as a supplement to wheat pasture. Each yr, 60 preconditioned Hereford steers (initial BW = 198 kg ± 3) were revaccinated against viral and Clostridial pathogens and implanted with 36 mg of zeranol. Steers were stratified by BW and randomly ...

Abstract To evaluate whether quantitative PET parameters of motion-corrected 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT can differentiate between intrapancreatic accessory spleens (IPAS) and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET). A total 498 consecutive patients with tumors (NET) who underwent March 2017 July 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Subjects (n = 43, thereof 7 IPAS) pNET 9) included, resulting in a 45 ...

Two experiments were conducted to compare the ileal digestibility of AA in distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) sourced from different regions (IL, MN, KY), to compare AA digestibility in DDGS and in distillers dried grains (DDG) and to compare AA digestibility in DDGS from ethanol production (DDGS(ethanol)) and DDGS from beverage production (DDGS(beverage)). In Exp. 1, five samples of ...

Strip loins from two experiments were used to evaluate effects of feeding dry (DDG) or wet (WDG) distiller's grains on beef color, tenderness, and sensory traits of Holstein steers. In Exp. 1, conducted at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, dietary treatments consisted of a control whole corn-corn silage diet with soybean meal (SBM) or diets formulated with 12.5% DDG plus urea, 25%...

We show how to combine two techniques for efficiently computing shortest paths in directed planar graphs. The first is the linear-time shortest-path algorithm of Henzinger, Klein, Subramanian, and Rao [STOC’94]. The second is Fakcharoenphol and Rao’s algorithm [FOCS’01] for emulating Dijkstra’s algorithm on the dense distance graph (DDG). A DDG is defined for a decomposition of a planar graph G...

An experiment was conducted to investigate pig performance, carcass quality, and palatability of pork from pigs fed distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), high-protein distillers dried grains (HPDDG), and corn germ. Eighty-four pigs (initial BW, 22 +/- 1.7 kg) were allotted to 7 dietary treatments with 6 replicates per treatment and 2 pigs per pen. Diets were fed for 114 d in a 3-phase p...

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the nutrient composition, in vitro dry matter disappearance (IVDMD) and organic matter disappearance (IVOMD) of three kinds of distillers grains (DG); i) wet distillers grains (WDG, KRW 25/kg), ii) dried distillers grains (DDG, KRW 280/kg), iii) dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS, KRW 270/kg) produced from tapioca 70% and rice 30%, and to eval...
