The same food formulation processed to obtain two different starch gelatinisations (SG) and resistant (RS) contents was evaluated in old adult dogs, regarding apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of nutrients, fermentation products faeces, postprandial glucose insulin responses. A diet with corn ground extruded ways, obtaining Low RS (2.2 g/kg DM; 99.9% SG) High (15.3 62.6% SG). Each fed adults (4.0 ± 0.7 years) or beagle dogs (11.5 0.4 a 2 (ages) x (RS amounts) factorial arrangement 8...
Water addition is required for proper extrusion, improving dough flow, starch hydration and swelling, viscosity generation, extrudate cellular formation. The implications of changing in-barrel moisture, however, little studied cat foods. Using a nutritionally balanced food recipe, the present study evaluated application six amounts water at extruder barrel, obtaining following mass moistures: 220 g/kg, 270 300 320 350 370 g/kg. Treatments were processed in single screw extruder; after...
This study investigated the consequences of intrauterine protein restriction on gastrointestinal tract and particularly gene expression activity intestinal disaccharidases in adult offspring. Wistar rat dams were fed isocaloric diets containing 6% (restricted, n = 8) or 17% (control, throughout gestation. Male offspring (n 5-8 each group) evaluated at 3 16 weeks age. Maternal during pregnancy produced with growth from birth (5.7 ± 0.1 vs 6.3 g; mean SE) to weaning (42.4 1.3 49.1 1.6 g),...
Hairball formation may induce vomiting and intestinal obstruction in predisposed cats. Some insoluble fibres as sugarcane fibre cellulose can prevent hairball formation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect beet pulp consumption, a moderate soluble fermentable source, on faecal trichobezoars excretion adult shorthaired cats fed kibble diets. Eighteen mixed-breed three extruded diets were used follows: basal diet without added source (PB0-8.8% dietary fibre); BP8-8% inclusion...
The influence of specific thermal energy (STE) applications on extruder preconditioner was evaluated in a dry food for cats. In the first study, six STE were tested with mass temperatures 45°C, 55°C, 65°C, 75°C, 85°C and 95°C. extrusion parameters, starch gelatinization kibble formation evaluated. Diets given to cats evaluate digestibility, faecal characteristics palatability. second experiment, three treatments compared: low STE-a temperature 45°C (L STE); high 95°C (H (preconditioner 95°C)...
Fermentable fibres are used in commercial dog food to promote intestinal health by providing substrates for better metabolic activity of the gut microbiota. Brazil is world's largest producer oranges, from which it possible obtain fibre with a relevant soluble fraction. The present study compared effects two inclusions orange (1% and 3%, on as fed basis) negative control (without addition source) positive controls, beet pulp (3%) purified inulin (1%), totalling five extruded diets dogs....
A bixina é o principal carotenóide presente na semente de urucum (Bixa orellana). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a inclusão níveis crescentes dieta frangos corte e seus efeitos sobre desempenho zootécnico características da carne. Foram utilizados 750 pintos um dia idade, Cobb 500, distribuídos em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com cinco tratamentos, cada seis repetições vinte aves cada. Os tratamentos consistiram aumentar os dietéticos (0,0, 7,14, 14,28, 21,42 35,71 g/kg)...
A adição de óleos e gorduras na dieta frangos corte é bastante comum, uma vez que esses ingredients são boas fontes energia. No entanto, estes ingredientes sofrem facilmente deterioração através da oxidação lipídica, o consumo alimentos ou oxidados pode prejudicar desempenho dos corte. Com objetivo avaliar as propriedades antioxidantes bixina adicionada à formulada com óleo soja fresco oxidado, foi realizado um experiment 1000 corte, machos, 1 dia idade, Ross 308. O delineamento experimental...
The aim of the present study was to compare orange fibre, beet pulp and inulin as fibre sources for cats. A control diet (CON) formulated without inclusion a source. Further experimental diets were also based on CON but supplemented with 1% (diet 1%OF); 3% 3%OF); 3%BP) or 1%IN). Forty cats used in randomised block design (4 blocks 10 cats, 2 animals per food each block, totalling 8 treatment). Each lasted 20 d, d adaptation, faecal collection digestibility well evaluation pH-value...
