Fluxomic Evaluation of Bovine Embryo Nutrient Utilization
One of the main factors that influence the success of embryo production is the culture medium that is used for embryo incubation. The nutritional diet composition can result in altered epigenetics that can negatively affect the health of the resulting offspring. This study focused on investigating …

The effect of high-fiber diets on nutrient utilization and intestinal morphology of growing pigs
Three balance experiments were conducted to determine the effects of dietary fiber on mineral balance and intestinal.morphology of growing pigs. Fiber sources were added to corn-soybean meal diets at levels which increased neutral-detergent fiber levels by 6 to 8%. In experiment 1, 10% oat hulls …

Composition and nutrient utilization by sheep of ensiled tall fescue with different levels of endophyte infection
Low and high endophyte infected stockpiled tall fescue was harvested, chopped and ensiled in 210 liter metal drums, double lined with polyethylene bags. Endophyte infection averaged 4 and 70%, respectively, for the low- and high-endophyte fescue. A metabolism trial was conducted with 24 wethers fed …

The Effect of Various Feed Additives on Growth Performance, Nutrient Utilization, and Cecal Microbial Populations in Poultry
… enzyme, and whole grains on growth performance, nutrient utilization, and select cecal microbial populations in poultry. Unless otherwise noted, all diets were corn soybean meal. In the first study, inulin, oligofructose, short-chain fructooligosaccharide (SCFOS), mannanoligosaccharide (MOS), and …

Nutrient Utilization in Pigs and Chicks Treated With Lipopolysaccharide: Lysine, Threonine, Arginine, Sulfur Amino Acids and Vitamin E
… 12 h after LPS injection. It is apparent that nutrient deficiencies or excesses can affect the immune response of LPS-challenged animals. Severe dietary deficiencies of lysine, threonine or arginine ameliorated the negative effects of LPS in chicks. In addition, pigs receiving high levels of …

The Influence of Dietary Alfalfa: Orchardgrass Hay and Lasalocid on Nutrient Utilization and Reproductive Performance by Gravid Swine
… CSL-fed sows. Lasalocid did not influence energy utilization. Lasalocid increased percentage nitrogen digestibility; however, the diet x additive interaction decreased nitrogen retention for CSL-fed sows. Hay-fed sows digested more grams of neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber but had …
