Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Possibilities of the Application of Feed Additives from Macroalgae in Sustainable Mineral Animal FeedingIzabela Michalak, Katarzyna Chojnacka, Peter GlavičProblem statement: The idea of the application of biological material as mineral feed additives could constitute an innovative practice that would encourage environmental sustainability. The main idea of this study was to present the advantages of macroalgae enriched with microelements when compared to inorganic salts. Approach: In order to evaluate the potential participation of macroalgae in sustainable animal feeding, it … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSustainable Production Process of Biological Mineral Feed AdditivesAgnieszka Zielińska, Katarzyna Chojnacka, Marjana SimoničProblem statement: This study discussed the problem of accumulation of Zn and Cu in the topsoil as a result of application of mineral feed additives that possess low bioavailability in animal diet. The review considered the production process of mineral feed additives in which a product supplies microelements in highly bioavailable form. Enrichment of natural biomass of edible microalgae with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAging Study and Lifetime Estimation of Transformer Mineral OilMohammad R. MeshkatoddiniProblem statement: Power transformer is the most expensive equipment in electrical network; and the mineral oil has the main roles of insulating and cooling in it. Oil is subjected to the degradation because of the ageing, high temperature and chemical reactions such as the oxidation. Then the oil condition has to be checked regularly and reclaimed or replaced when necessary, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Mar 2008 · 11,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy on the Correlations between Mineral Contents in Musculus Longissimus Dorsi and Meat Quality for Five Breeds of PigsREN Guang-zhi, WANG Ming, LI Zhen-tian et al.The correlations between mineral contents in musculus longissimus dorsi and meat quality for five breeds of pigs were studied in this experiment. Two imported breeds (Duroc and Yorkshires) and three local breeds (Huainan pig, Nanyang black pig, Queshan black pig) from Henan province of China were chosen in this trial. Ten 90 kg finishing pigs were selected randomly to slaughter … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Fat-Mineral Preparation From Fish Oil on Fatty Acid Content on Cow MilkWitold Janeczek, Marek Szoltysik, Robert Kupczynski et al.8-week-lasting investigation aimed at the assessment of the effect of fish oil application in the form of fat-mineral preparation (F-M) on fatty acid content in milk fat. The subject of this investigation were highly efficient dairy cows (primiparous and multiparous). The cows were administered F-M containing fish oil (1% in dry mass of ration) which resulted in decreased level of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,825 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Utilization of Peat, Lignite and Industrial Wastes in the Production of Mineral-Organic FertilizersKrystyna Hoffmann, Józef HoffmannThe results of chemical analyses of the composition of peat, lignite, turkey droppings and the potato industry effluent are presented. The results indicate that the substances can be used in mineral-organic fertilizer recipes. Although lignite and peat do not contain assimilable nutrients, from the ecology and pedology point of view they are valuable components of mineral-organic fertilizers. In order to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,483 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Degrading Calcium Phosphate on the Remodelling and Mineralisation of Avascular Osseous Tissue in a Rat Calvaria ModelTulio Fernandez, Carlos H. Valencia, Yuann Li et al.Artificial bone graftingis the subject of intensive investigation for craniofacial reconstruction. Among the syntheticcandi date materials, those incorporating Calcium Phosphates (CaP) have gained popularity, due to their osteoinductive properties. Despite many quantitative studies on the degradation rates of CaP biomaterials in vitro, there is lack of quantitative studies in relation to bone remodelling kinetics in vivo. In this investigation, we … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,210 accessesView PDFCite
