The Estrogenic Effects of the Soy Phytoestrogen Genistein on the Liver and Bone of Chickens
(2012-05-04)
Commercial chickens are known to develop various estrogen dependent diseases, including liver steatosis and osteoporosis. Studies involving both humans and animals have indicated that consuming soy protein may reduce the ...
Study of Chicken Egg Qualities Related to Different Protein Level Dietaries and Various Types Of Layers
(2012-04-18)
To determine if strain (brown and white egg shell color type) or diet (16% crude protein, 15% crude protein and 14% crude protein) would affect the component portions of egg, protein composition of albumen, and whether the ...
The Effect of Gelatin and Dietary Crude Protein Level on Broilers Vaccinated for Coccidiosis
(2008-09-09)
Vaccinating for coccidiosis has been shown to adversely affect live performance of broilers compared to those given a dietary anticoccidial. Feeding diets with higher crude protein alleviates negative response to vaccination, ...
Effect of Dietary Energy, Synthetic Amino Acids, Enzymes, Antibiotics, and Molting Method on Commercial Leghorns
(2008-09-09)
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 ...
Attachment of Listeria Monocytogenes to Austenitic Stainless Steel
(2008-09-09)
The objectives of this research were:
1. Investigate the attachment of Listeria monocytogenes, which were grown in nutrient-rich medium (brain heart infusion, BHI) or starved in minimal medium, to austenitic stainless ...
In Vitro Survival of Campylobacter jejuni And Campylobacter coli at Low pH
(2008-09-09)
A series of experiments were performed to investigate the effect of pre-exposure to acidic conditions of early exponential and stationary-phase cells of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli. The sublethal acid exposure to ...
Development of a Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensor for the Indentification of Campylobacter jejuni
(2008-09-09)
Bacteria are the most common foodborne pathogens, which can cause common, distressing, sometimes life-threatening foodborne diseases to any human around the world, especially elderly, debilitated, compromised people (cancer, ...
Effectiveness of Several Antimicrobials Used in Parts Decontamination Tank to Kill Salmonella and Campylobacter on Chicken Parts
(2014-05-02)
Research was conducted to determine the optimal contact time and effectiveness of antimicrobials (0.003% chlorine; 0.07% or 0.1% peracetic acid (PAA); or 0.35% or 0.60% Cetylpyridinuium Chlorine (CPC)) added to a parts ...
Efficacy of bacteriophage treatment in reduction of Salmonella populations on poultry parts
(2014-12-04)
In 2011, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released updated statistics detailing foodborne illness occurrence and attribution in the United States. From this compilation of data, the CDC concluded that ...
Assessment of the Effects of Acid-Adaptation on the Thermal Tolerance of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella Heidelberg
(2014-12-04)
Foodborne illnesses attributed to major pathogens cause more than 9.4 million episodes, 55,000 hospitalizations and 1,351 deaths each year. Two of the most predominant pathogens contributing to these statistics are Listeria ...
