The feeding trial was conducted 252 Lohmann Brown hens allocated 84 cages that were randomly assigned to 12 dietary treatments (2 × 3 levels 2 mineral forms). After...

The objective of the present study was to determine content and bioaccessibility carotenoids in 104 maize hybrids available at market. Lutein, zeaxanthin, α- β-cryptoxanthin, β-carotene were determined whole grains micelles produced during standardized INFOGEST digestibility analysis, their calculated as ratio micellar grain carotenoids. Tested varied total carotenoid content, with 34% having range 15–20 µg/g dry matter (DM) 41% 20–25 DM. amount bioaccessible increased linearly (p < 0.05)...

Yolk carotenoid profile reflects the hen diet when corn grain is only source of carotenoids, but origin and processing may affect utilization. In present study, 2 commercial dent hybrids differing in hardness (soft- hard-type) were dried at low (40°C) high (85°C) temperature ground through a 5- 9-mm sieve to investigate their effects on bioavailability laying hens. With 3 hens per cage, 168 Lohmann Brown allocated 8 dietary treatments (2 × drying temperatures grinding sieves) completely...

Commercial high-yielding corn hybrids have not been evaluated for their ability to pigment egg yolk. Therefore, the objective of this research was investigate effects commercial with different carotenoid profiles as only source pigments in diets hens on yolk color and content, well deposition efficiency into Treatment diets, differing one five hybrids, were offered a completely randomized design six cages per treatment, each three hens. yolks differed profile (contents lutein, zeaxanthin,...

This study investigated the effects of supplementing diets consisting two dent corn hybrids (soft- and hard-type) with different amounts rapeseed oil (2, 3 4%) (0.05%) or without emulsifier (Lysoforte®Extended, Kemin, USA) on content deposition carotenoids in egg yolk. The feeding trial was conducted 216 Lohmann Brown laying hens which were by three located 72 cages. cages randomly assigned to 12 dietary treatments (2 × levels 2 levels), resulting 6 (replicates) per each treatment. After...

Despite the high proportion of maize grain in animal diets, contribution made by phytochemicals is neglected. Tocols and their to vitamin E content diets are one example, exacerbated sparse information on tocol bioaccessibility commercial hybrids. In this study, contents individual total tocols were determined samples 103 hybrids using a standardized INFOGEST digestion procedure. studied hybrids, ranged from 19.24 54.44 µg/g dry matter. The micellar α-, γ-, δ-tocopherols, γ-tocotrienol,...

Most studies investigated the effects of air exposure during ensiling whole maize silage and high-moisture grains on chemical composition fermentation profile, but not rehydrated grain. The aim present study was to investigate effect hybrid duration pH content moisture, main nutrients, products nitrogen fractions in silages from three commercial hybrids. were 32 % moisture ensiled for 63 days with addition an inoculant (BIO-SIL®, Dr Pieper Technologie und Produktentwicklung GmbH). After...

The beneficial effect of acorn on blood lipid level could be linked with presence both high tannin content (70.10 g/kg DM) and amounts unsaturated fatty acids (more than 80%) such as linoleic (43.38%), oleic (30.52%) alpha linolenic (4.58%) acid. In this study the influence ad libitum intake profile longissimus muscle (MLD) composition Black Slavonian pig were investigated compared effects commercial corn based diet. Acorn consumption in last three weeks fattening period had a decreasing...

The nutritional value of maize grain can be influenced by its genetic background, which lead to differences that could affect laying hens due the high proportion hybrids in complete feed. This study aimed investigate effects modern on hen production and egg quality. Dietary treatments differed only a 15 high-yielding hybrids, added at fixed 600 g kg−1 without additional pigments. By 3 each cage, 225 Lohmann Brown were allocated dietary completely randomized block design (15 × 5 cages)....

When higher concentrations of starch are given to horses, degradation may shift from small intestine further hindgut where it can cause alternation the microbiome and unsatisfied fiber fermentation. The aim study was determine effect daily intake levels 0.3, 0.6 0.9 g/kg body weight (BW) animal on fecal in vitro digestibility neutral detergent fibers (IVNDFD) dry matter (IVDMD) whether changes occur. Three horses were fed three periods with trial, designed as 3x3 latin square. main...

The sunflower ( Helianthus annuus L.) is the most important oil plant in Republic of Croatia for production edible from seeds. Subsequent to production, utilizable biomass postharvest residues remains, being used solid biofuels, as well heads, which can be ingredients animal feed. aim this study was determine physical and chemical properties head with seeds order able use whole head, usually has a diameter 10 40 cm, contains 7% protein, 16% fiber, 4% subsequent separation seeds, while seed...

Maize is considered a promising candidate for biofortification through breeding, given its widespread cultivation and significance as food crop. This cost-effective sustainable approach could be used to increase the content of different tocol compounds, i.e., vitamin E, in maize grain due well-documented genetic variability. In present study, an evaluation nine traits was performed genebank collection 88 inbred lines temperate grown at two locations Croatia 2019. A large genotypic...

Applied microbiology is one of the fundamental branches biotechnology, as it plays a role in production and isolation products obtained or used from microorganisms. The major microorganisms include microbial enzymes, biomass, metabolites compounds derived transformation. Large amounts enzymes are produced on an industrial scale, especially hydrolytic i.e., amylases, proteinases, lipases, cellulases, others. These various industries, but due to increasing environmental pollution need...
