Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExtrusion of Peas (Pisum sativum L.): Effects on the Apparent Metabolisable Energy and Ileal Nutrient Digestibility of BroilersCatootjie L. Nalle, Ganesharanee Ravindran, Velmurugu RavindranProblem statement: The potential feeding values of grain legumes, such as peas (Pisum sativum), are limited because of the presence of anti-nutritional factors. In particular, protease inhibitors are of interest, but these can be readily destroyed by thermal treatments. In the present study, the influence of extrusion on the chemical composition and nutritive value of peas was evaluated. Approach: Two … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 8,415 accessesView PDF Cite

Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Genetic Basis of Starch Biosynthesis and Waxy Allelic Variation in Rice Grain QualityInnabat Sartbayeva, Aigul Amirova, Dana Mynbaeva et al.The culinary, nutritional, and industrial properties of rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains are fundamentally governed by the structural arrangement of endosperm starch, a complex physiological phenotype shaped by genetic architecture and environmental conditions. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of the molecular pathways driving starch biosynthesis in rice, centering on allelic diversity within the Waxy (Wx) locus, which codes for … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2026 · 479 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOat Pellets and Hay in Alpacas of Pastures of the Andean Zone, PerúMarcial Enciso Altamirano, Jimny Núñez Delgado, Alejandrina Sotelo-Méndez et al.The research was carried out at the INIA's Quimsachata experimental center in Puno, Peru; with the purpose of evaluating oat pellets and hay in Alpaca pastures in the Andean Zone. A total of Sixty-three 15-month-old female alpacas were used to evaluate their weight gain and feed consumption. The experiment was conducted with three treatments and 21 replicates under a completely … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 4 Mar 2025 · 5,583 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Enzyme Supplementation on Performance, Carcass characteristics, Carcass Composition and Some Blood Parameters of Broiler ChickenH. HajatiProblem statement: Endogenous enzymes of broilers cannot adequately digest nonstarch polysaccharides and subsequently the ingestion of high levels of soluble NSP leads to increased digesta viscosity and reduced nutrient digestibility and absorption. Supplementation of NSPs degrading enzymes may remove the anti nutritive effects of NSPs and release some nutrients (starch, protein) from these elements. Therefore, in a completely randomized design … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,649 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlkali Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cattails from Constructed WetlandsBo Zhang, Abolghasem Shahbazi, Lijun Wang et al.Problem statement: To date, production of liquid fuel, particularly ethanol, has only been economically feasible from food crops that are high in sugar and starch. However, the use of arable land for fuel rather than for food production and the use of a food source for fuel rather than as food have created issues in prices and availability of traditional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,105 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Flavomycin on Ruminal Fermentation, In Situ Degradability and In Vivo Digestibility in Bovine Fed Sugarcane DietsS.M. Mogentale, E.J.A. Silva, P.M. Meyer et al.Problem statement: The aim of the present study was to characterize and differentiate the effects of addition of flavomycin or monensin on ruminal fermentation and degradability as well as on total digestibility in bovine. Approach: Twelve non-pregnant and non-lactating cows (736 kg of BW) were randomly assigned to three treatments: control, flavomycin (20 mg animal-1 day-1) and monensin (300 mg … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,370 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordIsoquinoline Alkaloids and the Ionophore Monensin Supplemented Alone or Combined on Ruminal Fermentation and Nutrient Digestibility in Steers Fed a High-Energy DietJesús D. Urías-Estrada, Beatriz I. Castro-Pérez, Alfredo Estrada-Angulo et al.The aim of this experiment was to investigate the Influence of Alkaloids (IQA) and sodium Monensin (MON) supplementation on characteristics of ruminal fermentation, microbial protein synthesis and site and extend of digestion. For this, 4 cannulated steers were used in a 4×4 Latin square design. Treatments consisted of a high-energy basal diet supplemented with: (1) No additive (Control), (2) 15 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 7 Oct 2021 · 6,580 accessesView PDF Cite
