Two experiments were conducted to determine the standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) of P and the concentration of DE and ME in corn, hominy feed, bakery meal, distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), corn gluten meal, corn gluten feed, and corn germ meal fed to growing pigs. In Exp. 1, 84 barrows (initial BW: 13.7±2.3 kg) were placed in metabolism cages and allotted to 14 diets w...

The objectives of this experiment were to determine the apparent ileal digestibility and the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and AA in bakery meal, corn gluten meal, corn gluten feed, corn germ meal, and hominy feed and to compare these values with the apparent ileal digestibility and SID of CP and AA in corn and distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS). Eight growing barrows (...

Two finishing experiments were conducted to determine the effects of concentration (Exp. 1) and composition of wet corn gluten feed (Exp. 2) in steam-flaked corn-based diets on feedlot steer performance. In Exp. 1, 192 English x Continental crossbred steer calves (299 +/- 0.6 kg) were used in a completely randomized design with six dietary treatments (four pens per treatment). Treatments were s...

this experiment was performed to investigate whether feeding xylose-treated soybean meal (xsbm) or corn gluten meal (cgm) is economically better under field conditions. ninety-four multiparous early lactating holstein cows (55±5 days in milk and 2.82±0.41 body condition score) were used in a completely randomized design. cows were randomly assigned to one of two treatments: xsbm or cgm as the m...

In a study involving the use of food-grade corn meal as a growth media for microorganisms, it was observed that stand establishment of creeping bentgrass seedlings was reduced by the incorporation of corn meal into the soil. Studies on the effect of adding corn starch, corn gluten meal, corn germ, corn seed fiber, or corn meal to the soil surface before seeding creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palu...

A modified true metabolizable energy bioassay was used to determine the nitrogen-corrected apparent (AMEn) and true (TMEn) metabolizable energy of various feed ingredients for ducks. In each of two experiments, which lasted 102 h with a 54-h excreta collection period following a 48-h period of feed withdrawal, six male White Pekin ducks were assigned to each of three test feed ingredients and d...

objective: the aim of this experiment was to determine chemical composition, protein quality of corn gluten meal (cgm) and its effect on growth performance of broiler chicks. methods: chemical composition and nitrogen corrected true metabolizable energy of cgm was determined by standard and precision-fed cockerel assay methods.  for evaluating of protein quality, 90 male broiler chicks in a com...

Two trials evaluated the effect of a composite of feed ingredients formulated to be similar in nutrient composition to wet distillers byproducts on finishing performance of sheep and cattle. Trial 1 used 60 crossbred lambs (31 kg) assigned to one of four treatments: dry-rolled corn (DRC) control, dried distillers grains plus solubles, wet corn gluten feed (WCGF), and wet distillers grains compo...

24 A study was conducted with Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) to determine the 25 apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of protein, phosphorus and energy in 26 practical feed ingredients. The digestible energy (DE) content was also evaluated. 27 Test ingredients were anchovy fishmeal, solvent-extracted soybean meal, corn 28 gluten and wheat meal. Due to their low cohesion, sole faeces...

Ethanol byproducts or coproducts (I may use the two terms interchangeably) result from the fermentation of grains, typically corn, to produce ethanol – either for fuel use or for human consumption plus distillers grains and possibly other byproducts. Most of the ethanol produced in the U.S.A. today is via dry grinding, with dried distillers grains plus solubles (DDGS) as the main byproduct (Rau...
