Effect of Diet Complexity, Multi-enzyme Complexes, Essential Oils, and Benzoic Acid on Weanling Pigs 

wang, yingfeng (2016-05-05)
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of supplementing a simple corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet with multi-enzyme complexes, essential oils, and benzoic acid on growth performance, serum metabolite profile, ...

Effect of dietary 25-hydroxycholecalciferol supplementation on intestinal inflammation and epithelial integrity of young broiler chickens 

Abascal-Ponciano, Gerardo (2021-11-22)  ETD File Embargoed
Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of broiler chickens is a continuous structure that has direct contact with external substances. It is responsible for nutrient absorption, but its contact with external organisms, including ...

Effect of Dietary Energy, Protein, Lysine, Versatile Enzyme, And Peptides on Commercial Leghorns 

Gunawardana, Priyantha (2009-03-25)
Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of increasing dietary lysine on performance, egg composition, egg solids, egg quality, in seven commercial brown egg layer strains, and to determine the nutrient ...

Effect of Dietary Energy, Synthetic Amino Acids, Enzymes, Antibiotics, and Molting Method on Commercial Leghorns 

Wu, Guangbing (2006-08-15)
A series of experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of dietary energy, antibiotics, and molting method on performance, egg composition, egg solids, egg quality, and profits of current strains of commercial ...

Effect of Dietary Fish Peptide and Enzyme Supplementation on Weanling Pigs 

Wilson, Taylor (2021-04-21)
A corn-soy diet is the gold standard for feeding pigs, however, such a diet may not be appropriate for weanling pigs. Weanling pigs are subjected to various stressors at weaning, and their digestive system is immature or ...

Effect of dietary inclusion of corn from different origins on metabolizable energy, amino acid digestibility, growth performance, carcass traits, and nutrient digestibility of broilers. 

Vargas Patino, Jose Isaac (2022-12-02)  ETD File Embargoed
Corn is an important feed ingredient of broiler diets due to its high content of apparent metabolizable energy (AME). Additionally, its high inclusion in diets makes it a non-negligible source of crude protein (CP) and ...

Effect of Dietary Phosphorus Level and Phytase Enzymes on Broiler Performance and Bone Mineralization 

Shaw, Ashley (2010-07-06)
A series of experiments evaluated dietary levels of non-phytate phosphorus (npP), with or without phytase enzyme supplementation in corn-soybean meal diets, on growth and skeletal performance in the broiler chicken. A ...

Effect of Different Atmospheres for Isolation, Molecular Characterization, Pathogenicity Gene Screening, and Control of Campylobacter spp. from Processed Broiler Meat 

Hussain, Syeda (2009-05-04)
Our first experiments involved the studies of the effects of Oxyrase®, an enzyme based membrane system that selectively reduces oxygen from the medium, during the growth and isolation of Campylobacter spp. The effect of ...

Effect of different dietary protein sources on skeletal muscle growth characteristics and stem cell activity of young piglets 

Sandoval, Jorge (2022-11-29)  ETD File Embargoed
Neonatal period of pigs is distinguished by a rapid growth as a result of a high protein synthesis, influenced by amino acid availability. Nutrients necessary for immune system function are redirected from growth and ...

The effect of different oxygen concentrations on oxidative stress in anesthetized horses 

Midon, Monica (2021-07-13)
Anesthesia-associated mortality in horses is high when compared with other species, and may be related to development of hypoxemia during recumbency. To overcome this, high fractions of inspired oxygen (FiO2 >95%) are used. ...

Effect of different protein sources on intestinal crypt cell proliferation and density of macrophages in neonatal piglets 

Calderon Jimenez, Allan J (2021-11-22)  ETD File Embargoed
Pre-weaning mortality is one of the major concerns for the swine industry since it can negatively affect production efficiency. Since the piglet immune system is not fully developed at birth, they are more likely to suffer ...

Effect of Different Synthesis Conditions on the Physical and Chemical Properties of MXenes (Two-dimensional Transitional Metal Carbides/Nitrides) 

Kayali, Emre (2021-07-21)
Transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) are a new family of two-dimensional (2D) materials first discovered in 2011. They have gained huge interest over the last decade due to their excellent physical and chemical ...

Effect of Dispersion of SWCNTs on the Viscoelastic and Final Properties of Epoxy Based Nanocomposites 

Uzunpinar, Cihan (2010-01-11)
The properties of polymer nanocomposites depend primarily on the dispersion of nanoparticles and the interaction between nanoparticles and the polymer matrix. Homogeneous dispersion and good interfacial adhesion can transfer ...

The Effect of Drama Activities in the Second Language Classroom: Vocabulary Acquisition and Fluency Development 

Sanchez Vizcaino, Elena (2015-05-07)
Recent studies stress the benefits of using drama activities in the L2 classroom to improve oral skills, based on qualitative analyses rather than on empirical evidence. This thesis explores, through quantitative analysis, ...
