Results: Gender, animal density, and concurrent disease were not associated with death due to HBS. Rates of death due to HBS were higher for pigs finished during the summer than for those finished in the winter. Rates of death due to HBS were lower in pigs fed rations containing bacitracin methylene disalicylate or chlortetracycline than in pigs on rations containing virginiamycin or no antibio...

without meeting fresh supplies, whilst the one week's " daur" is now a prominent feature of Indian Frontier warfare. When here we speak of emergency rations therefore we mean not so much the compressed food ration, which may keep a man going for a day or so, though this rightly, too, has its place in every man's haversack, as that collection of foods that an army cut oft from all fresh supplies...

1 Mohacsi PJ,Thompson JF, Nicholson JK, Tiller DJ. Patients’ attitudes to xenotransplantation. Lancet 1997; 349: 1031. In the absence of a political solution, we believe that there are only two ethical alternatives. Preferably, more autonomy should be granted to the refugees and aid should be targeted towards restoring their livelihoods. Such a change would probably involve dividing the camps i...

Twenty crossbred steers (400±40.1 kg of initial body weight) were used to assess the effects of a dietary supplementation with crude glycerin (CG) as a substitute for corn grain on performance, carcass traits, and meat quality. Four isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets were offered to the experimental animals (5 steers per treatment) for 121 days using randomized complete block design. The steer...

OBJECTIVE This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of crude glycerin from waste vegetable oil (CGWVO) on performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and muscle chemical composition. METHODS Twenty-four crossbred (Thai Native×Anglo Nubian) uncastrated male goats (16.8± 0.46 kg body weight [BW]) were assigned to a completely randomized design and subjected to four experimental di...

OBJECTIVE This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of fungal treated oil palm fronds (FTOPF) on performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and muscle chemical composition. METHODS Eighteen growing crossbred male goats (Thai Native×Anglo Nubian) with 18.7±2.0 kg of initial body weight (BW) were stratified and blocked by BW in a randomized complete block design. Three diets cont...

in magnetic abrasive finishing (maf), abrasive grains as a tool move on surface and can removechip from surface of work piece. in this study al 6061 tube was considered as the work piece andthe effect of finishing parameters such as gap distance between tube and poles, rotational speed oftube, abrasive ration and finishing time on surface roughness was investigated. the mixture offerromagnetic ...

An on-farm experiment was conducted with Nellore ram lambs by feeding intensively for five months period with sole maize silage (R-I), silage + concentrate at 0.5 per cent body weight (R-II), silage + concentrate at 1.0 per cent body weight (R-III), silage + concentrate at 1.5 per cent body weight (R-IV), silage + lucerne hay (R-V) and silage + GN haulms (R-VI) to develop a feeding system based...
