The use of whole citrus fruits in the food industry means that valuable peel is used, but this may raise palatability or health concerns among consumers. content sugars, dietary fibre, redox compounds, lead, and cadmium was compared (orange; pomelo; mandarin; lemon; key lime; red, yellow, green grapefruit). pulp all contained significantly less tannins, phenolic compounds than peel. Whole had lower sugars higher fibre including ferulic acid, their pulps. grapefruits concentrations ascorbic...

Due to exposure of animals numerous stress-inducing factors and a high level cellular metabolism resulting from the conditions manner in which they are raised, destabilisation redox balance towards excessive activity free radical species is common phenomenon. Enhancing antioxidant status animal organism by optimising quality feeding, especially supplementation with exogenous antioxidants, may be one essential highly effective means improving health thus productivity animals. Natural plant...

A hypothesis was verified that dietary methionine (Met) improves the growth and antioxidant status of turkeys, its effects depend on inclusion levels sources. total 816 female Hybrid Converter turkeys fed wheat-soybean meal-based diets supplemented with 3 sources Met: DL-, L-isomers DL-hydroxy analog (DLM, LM, MHA, respectively). In 4 4-week periods (from one to 16 wk age), Met content corresponded NRC (1994) recommendations or increased by approximately 50% (in 8 44 46% in 9 55 56% vs....

Abstract The ban on the use of zinc oxide has increased interest in probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics and organic acids, as well fermented components diet weaned piglets. This study assessed effect 8% rapeseed meal weaner diets characteristics gastrointestinal tract, small intestinal microbiota, immune antioxidant status. effects were determined by measuring biochemical haematological blood parameters, levels class G, A M immunoglobulins IL-6, potential plasma. After slaughter, tract was...

There are indications that organically grown plants safer for health and have higher antioxidant content than conventional ones. Vegetables of the genus Allium L. a valuable source health-promoting substances, including compounds with properties. The aim study was to compare potential nutritional value four species vegetables obtained from organic production: garlic, leek red yellow onion. Their proximate mineral composition were determined, as well bioactive substances potential. showed...

Abstract Yarrowia lipolytica yeast can be a valuable component of feed compounds due to its high content protein and essential amino acids, as well minerals. The objective the study was verify research hypothesis that (YL) yeast, having more chemical composition than Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC), improve growth performance in piglets. An attempt made determine what proportion YL compound for piglets would produce measurable effects terms production health. experiment carried out on...

Abstract The aim of the study was to determine effect inclusion 2%, 4% and 6% extruded flaxseed in diet fattening pigs on their growth performance parameters, carcass selected blood parameters. experiment conducted 160 weaners (from about 30 kg 110 BW) assigned four experimental groups 40 animals each (5 replicates with 8 individuals each). control group received a which source fat soybean oil. other (FE) place meal amount 2% (group 2FE); 4FE) 6FE). Soybean oil added diets treatments obtain...

Quality feed is essential for correct bone development and proper functioning of animals. Post-weaned piglets experience a radical change in eating behaviour that can influence their intake. For this reason, functional additives ingredients be used post-weaning feeds are needed. The objective study was to evaluate the effects partially replacing wheat with rapeseed meal fermented using Bacillus subtilis strain 87Y on overall quality metabolism weaner piglets. From 28th day life, barrows were...

Abstract The effect of different dietary levels selenium (Se) and vitamin E on egg production, the antioxidant status immune system response hens was investigated in current study. A total 32 Lohman Brown were divided into four groups fed diets with 5% soybean oil two Se (0.15 0.30 mg/kg) (30 60 mg/kg). During 10 weeks experimental feeding, body weights production similar all treatments, but a higher content contributed to significant increase weight. level significantly increased...
