The objective of this study was to examine the effect isonitrogenous substitution solvent-extracted soybean meal (SBM) with canola (CM) on enteric CH4 production, ruminal fermentation characteristics (including protozoa), digestion (in situ and apparent total-tract digestibility), N excretion, milk production dairy cows. For purpose, 16 lactating Holstein cows, which 12 were ruminally cannulate...

We report that planar chiral structures affect the polarization state of light in a manner similar to three-dimensional chiral (optical active) media. In experiments with artificial metal-on-silicon chiral planar gratings of 442 wallpaper group symmetry, containing millions of chiral elements per square centimeter, we observed rotation of the polarization azimuth in excess of 30 degrees of ligh...

Wepresent and discuss spectropolarimetry of theRaman scattered emission features atλ6825 andλ7082 of the symbiotic nova HBV 475. Meaningful interpretation in relation to the orbital phase requires an improved ephemeris and we first review available photometry and deduce a newperiod of 956.5 d and minimum epoch at JD 2 444 890. The flux of the λ6825 line varies with photometric phase by about a ...

Site-directed mutagenesis was applied to modify phenylalanines (Phe(475)Trp, Phe(548)Tyr, and both) to generate mutants on the basis of molecular modeling of the ATP-binding domain of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, in order to characterize the forces that stabilize ATP in its binding pocket. Each of the mutants was examined by Raman difference spectroscopy, i.e., as a difference between the spectrum of the...

The effects of feeding Fusarium moniliforme culture material, containing known concentrations of fumonisin Bj (FBi), were studied in turkey poults. Day-old poults were allotted randomly to dietary treatments containing 0, 0.41, 0.82, 1.23, 1.64, 2.87, 4.10, 5.33, 6.56, and 7.79% fumonisin culture material (FCM). These levels of FCM supplied 0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 175, 250, 325, 400, and 475 mg FBi...
