the effects of aflatoxin (af) (0.0 and 0.5m g kg-1) and high grade sodium bentonite (hgsb) (5, 7.5 and 10 g kg-1) were tested in an in vivo study including 8 dietary treatments with three replicates of 14 birds per diet per replicate, using a total of 336 broiler chicks up to five weeks. results showed that chicks receiving af contaminated feed had significantly (p≤ 0.05) suppressed body weight...

Rations containing approximately 85% ground high-moisture, ensiled corn were fed to steers in such a way as to produce lactic acid acidosis, and three dietary buffers were evaluated in regard to their effect on ruminal and systemic acidosis. The buffers consisted of (1) 2% sodium bentonite, (2) 1% sodium bentonite plus 1% dolomitic limestone, and (3) 1% sodium bentonite plus 1% potassium bicarb...

Different compositions of mixtures sand and clay with medium-grade bentonite for molding critical large parts a freight car bogie are examined in the article. to improve bentonite’s physical mechanical properties, such as gas permeability compressive strength addition soda ash, considered. As material study were taken quartz grade 1K2O2025, medium Navbaharskogo birthplace, improving properties ...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effects of sodium bentonite litter supplement and stoking density on performance and litter quality using a total of 252 broiler chicks in completely randomized design with 6 treatments which were arranged factorially (3×2) and 4 replicates. experimental factors included: stocking density (14; low and 18; high /birds per m2) and three levels of sod...

Six ruminally cannulated steers, five Holsteins and one Hereford (250 to 295 kg), were fed 84% forage sorghum silage plus 16% supplement or 50% forage sorghum silage plus concentrate and supplement diets containing either no addition (controls), 1% sodium bicarbonate (NaI-1CO 3 ) or 2% sodium bentonite in a 2 X 3 factorial arrangement of treatments in a 6 • 6 Latin-square experiment with 3-wk p...

this study was conducted to investigate the effect of ascites-related physiological and metabolic parameters in broiler chickens fed with different components of bentonite. two hundred and seven days old arian male chicks were allocated into five dietary treatment groups including 1) basal diet (control); 2) basal diet + 1% sulphated sodium bentonite (ssb); 3) basal diet + 1% non-processed sodi...

Hydraulic conductivity was evaluated for eight commercially available geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) permeated with leachate characteristic of low-level radioactive waste (LLW) disposal facilities operated by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Two of the GCLs (CS and GS) contained conventional sodium bentonite (Na-B). The others contained a bentonite–polymer mixture (CPL, CPH, GPL1, GPL2, an...

application of hyperactivation process in palletizing iron ore, in order to decrease bentoniteconsumption has been investigated. different amounts of bentonite and sodium hydroxide, as activating agents,were added to iron ore and the quality of formed pellets were determined. the results show that addition of 0.01pct. naoh improves the pellet quality significantly while the bentonite content re...

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of ascites-related physiological and metabolic parameters in broiler chickens fed with different components of bentonite. Two hundred and seven days old Arian male chicks were allocated into five dietary treatment groups including 1) basal diet (control); 2) basal diet + 1% sulphated sodium bentonite (SSB); 3) basal diet + 1% non-processed sodi...

A study was conducted to determine the effect of ration containing differently treated Sodium Bentonite on broiler performance. 280 day-old broiler chicks were randomly allocated to 7 experimental groups designated as A (Control), B & C (Sodium Bentonite 0.5% & 1.0% respectively), D & E (Sodium Bentonite + Gention Violet 0.5% & 1.0% respectively), F & G (Sodium Bentonite + Acetic Acid 0.5% & 1....
