Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFatty Acid Profile in Butter from Cows Fed with Sunflower Seeds with or Without LignosulfonateWallacy Barbacena Rosa dos Santos, Geraldo Tadeu dos Santos, Daniele Cristina da Silva Kazama et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate the fatty acid composition of butter from Holstein cows fed diets containing ground sunflower seeds or ground and pelleted sunflower seeds, with or without the addition of lignosulfonate. The butter was produced from milk collected from eight Holstein cows multiparous, with 100±62.6 days in milk, with a mean weight of 556±39.8 kg … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2020 · 6,693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Drying Method on Physical-Chemical Characteristics and Amino Acid Content of Tropical Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) Hay for Poultry FeedBambang Suwignyo, Anita Mustika, Kustantinah et al.Alfalfa is an important source of inexpensive forage for poultry that has high nutritional and digestive value. Alfalfa can be dried to produce hay, although the drying method can affect the quality of the hay as forage. In this study we examined how drying methods affect the physical quality and chemical composition of hay produced from alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 15 May 2020 · 8,397 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractConsumption of an Extremely Biodiverse Probiotic and a Supplement based on Microbial Chondroitin Sulfate is Associated with Very Low Serum Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (Nagalase) Activity and Decrease of C-reactive Protein ValuesMichael Carter, Stefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroWe describe the case of a 57-years-old male healthy professional who added to his nutritional plan a novel, extremely biodiverse, probiotic and a supplement based on microbial chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D3 and ultrapure phosphatidylcholine to improve his healthy life expectancy. After three months of such a nutritional regimen, serum alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (nagalase) activity was 0.40 that is a value below the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2020 · 13,055 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved SDA Production in High Lipid Accumulating Strain of Mucor circinelloides WJ11 by Genetic ModificationJunhuan Yang, Md. Ahsanul Kabir Khan, Sergio López-García et al.Stearidonic Acid (SDA; 18:4, n-3) is a ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid which is nutritionally important and has pharmaceutical applications. Hence, scientists are trying to construct SDA producing oleaginous microorganisms by genetic modification. Two enzymes, Delta-6 Desaturase (D6D) and ω-3 desaturase catalyze the reactions to produce SDA from Linoleic Acid (LA; 18:2, n-6). But the key enzyme, ω-3 desaturase converts LA … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 23 Mar 2020 · 8,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation Study between Different Anthropometric Measures and other Clinical Markers in Saudi Female Students at King Abdulaziz UniversityAsmaa H Almalki, Maha ST Saad, Shahad S Alzahrani et al.This research addresses nutritional status, Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR), physical activity and Blood Pressure (BP) among female students attending King Abdul-Aziz University (KAU) and correlates the changes in BMI and WHR with Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Saudi female students (N = 232) aged 18 to 27 years old were recruited over two … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 21 Jan 2020 · 7,789 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomated Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, J.E. Smith) Pheromone Trap Based on Machine LearningSimon H. Chiwamba, Jackson Phiri, Philip O.Y. Nkunika et al.Maize is the main food crop that meets the nutritional needs of both humans and livestock in the sub-Saharan African region. Maize crop has in the recent past been threatened by the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, J.E Smith) which has caused considerable maize yield losses in the region. Controlling this pest requires knowledge on the time, location and extent of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 12 · 19 Dec 2019 · 8,369 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Composted Animal Manure as Fertilizer on Productivity of Azolla Pinnata Grown in Earthen PondsRistianto Utomo, Cuk Tri Noviandi, Nafiatul Umami, Adhitya PermadiAzolla pinnata contains a high nutritional value with a high protein content of 25%, so it can be used as an alternative to animal feed. The low production of Azolla is caused by the suboptimal use of fertilizers. This study aims were to determine the type of manure (composted manure from poultry, goats, and rabbit) which was the most optimal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 9 Nov 2019 · 11,074 accessesView PDFCite
