Substitution of live food by formulated diets in marine fish larvae

TL;DR: Larvae have the ability to digest and thrive on compound diet, if this diet is well adapted, and could totally replace live prey.

Significance of endogenous gut nitrogen losses in the nutrition of growing pigs: A review

TL;DR: Estimates of ENL are important for determining true ileal N and amino acid digestibilities and for identifying means to improve the efficiency of N and energy utilization in growing pigs.

Ileal amino acid digestibility and performance of growing pigs fed wheat-based diets supplemented with xylanase.

TL;DR: The supplementation of xylanase to a diet in which wheat provided the sole source of protein and energy improved the AID of AA, ADG, and feed:gain ratio; however, this improvement was very small compared with that obtained with the supplementation of synthetic amino acids.

The effect of supplementing microbial phytase and organic acids to a corn-soybean based diet fed to early-weaned pigs.

TL;DR: In conclusion, addition of MP and OA to pig starter diets improved P digestion and utilization, thereby leading to a reduction in P excretion.

Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of nutrition on stress and immunity in dairy cows and discussed the potential applications of GM technology on pig performance and piglet starter feeding in a changing business environment, with special emphasis on tryptophan and valine.

Recent advances in animal nutrition.

TL;DR: This research examines the effect of nutrition on stress and immunity, legislation affecting animal production systems, and potential applications of GM technology on pig performance in a changing business environment.

Reduction of intestinal viscosity through manipulation of dietary rye and pentosanase concentration is effected through changes in the carbohydrate composition of the intestinal aqueous phase and results in improved growth rate and food conversion efficiency of broiler chicks.

TL;DR: Intestinal viscosity, which rose as digesta passed from the proximal to distal small intestine, fell with pentosanase addition and decreasing rye concentration, and correlated positively with reduced weight gain and FCE.

Measurement of (1 → 3),(1 → 4)‐β‐D‐glucan in barley and oats: A streamlined enzymic procedure

TL;DR: In this paper, a commercially available enzymic method for the quantitative measurement of (1 → 3),(1 → 4)-β-glucan has been simplified to allow analysis of up to 10 grain samples in 70 min or of 100-200 samples by a single operator in a day.

Gastrointestinal implications in pigs of wheat and oat fractions. 1. Digestibility and bulking properties of polysaccharides and other major constituents.

TL;DR: The present work was undertaken to study the gastrointestinal effects of wheat and oat dietary fibre using 40-50 kg pigs cannulated in the terminal ileum to study chemical characteristics of the DF, ileal and faecal digestibility of nutrients and bulking properties of polysaccharides and other major constituents.
