Two growth trials are reported. In the first (of 141 days) , 42 bulls of initially about 220 kg and 2 years of age were given: (A) chopped whole sugar cane ad libitum plus 300 g/d extracted soya bean meal; (B), © and (D) as (A), but with 100, 200 or 300 g molasses/urea (2.5%) per kg fresh cape mixed into the cane; (E) as (D) , but with 600 g soya/d; (F) , chopped whole cane plus 1 kg/d wheat br...

In the current scenario due to increased input costs, commercial dairy operations are seeking reduced-cost feed alternatives to enhance productivity while reducing feed costs. The organic dairy sector has had recent unprecedented changes in their industry due to increased grain prices. Therefore, organic dairy farmers in particular are seeking lowercost energy alternatives. Sugar cane molasses,...

The application of ion-exclusion chromatography to desugarization of molasses has been investigated in the beet sugar industry for many years and is now being applied routinely to sucrose recovery. Recent work on the desugarization of molasses from cane processing has been carried out and a large-scale system is under construction. Ion-exclusion chromatographic processes are very efficient for ...

___________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract In commercial ethanol production producers often use sugarcane or sugar beet molasses as raw material due to their abundance and low costs. The most employed microorganism used for fermentation is Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast due to its ability to hydrolyze sucrose from cane or beet molasses i...

Molasses is a significant by-product of sugar beet or sugar cane refining industry. In this work, the effects of storage temperature and packaging on the contents of free amino acids (AAs) in sugar beet and sugar cane molasses after freeze drying were inquired. The effect of different variables such as, temperature (4 and 25˚C) and light (Metallized polypropylene container and Normal polypropyl...

T HREE switchback metabolism studies were conducted to study the effects of replacing corn with 5, 10 and 15% cane molasses. Five percent molasses had no significant effect on any of the parameters studied. At 10 and 15% molasses added at the expense of corn in the basal ration, nitrogen retention and apparent digestibility of dry matter and energy were all significantly improved (P< .05) . The...

Molasses meal is a popular stock feed which is manufactured from two by-products of the sugar milling process, namely cane flour and molasses. Cane flour, or pulp, is prepared from bagasse by separating the pithy fraction and then drying and milling it. In this form it is capable of absorbing up to four times its own weight of molasses. One such stock feed, produced in Natal, is made up of 75% ...

Recovery of sugars from cane molasses (i.e. the by-product of sugar industries) is of great interest to industry and academia. The prerequisite for refning cane molasses is removal of pigments and suspended solids present in the molasses. In this work, the utilization of membrane separation for clarifcation and decoloration of cane molasses has been examined. Three oper...

OBJECTIVES Sugar cane molasses is a commonly used ingredient in several food products. Contrasting reports suggest that molasses may have potential adverse or beneficial effects on human health. However, little evidence exists that examines the effects of molasses on the different physiological systems. This study investigated the effects of sugar cane molasses on various physiological systems ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The essential amino acid L-tryptophan can be produced by a condensation reaction between indole and L-serine, catalyzed by B. subtilis with tryptophan synthase activity. Application of the tryptophan is widespread in the biotechnology domain and is sometimes added to feed products as a food fortifier. MATERIALS AND METHODS The optimum concentration of the Iranian can...
