Nutrient composition and sensory attributes of beef from grain-finished steers and heifers
Over the past decade, nutrient composition of beef became an increasingly important topic both domestically and internationally for the beef industry and its consumers. Beef is an important source of protein, monounsaturated fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid, vitamins and minerals. Due to …

Use of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to predict water and energy content of juvenile Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
Accurate measurements of energy content and body composition are essential to effectively assess the well-being of fish. Bomb calorimetry and proximate analysis are currently the most dependable and accurate methods to estimate energy content and body composition. However, bioenergetic studies that …

Quality characteristics of Australian chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) for food usage
… the western world. Physical properties, chemical composition and nutritional qualities of four major commercially traded desi varieties, two kabuli varieties and some new releases collected from the important growing sites of Australia were evaluated over four harvests to study effect of location, …

Thiol Dough Conditioners Impact on the Formation of Advanced Glycation End-products in Bagels Containing Sunflower Seed Flour
… diseases. This research correlated color and the proximate composition with fluorescent AGEs in bagels containing 0-20% sunflower flour (SFF) and 0-90 ppm L-cysteine (Cys) or Glutathione (GSH). No significant differences were observed in the moisture and lipid content for the bagel crust and …

Investigations on Dry Beans (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.): Microstructure, Processing, and Antinutrients (Phytic Acid, Tanning, Enzyme Inhibitors)
… on antinutrients of dry beans were investigated. Proximate composition of whole beans showed minor differences among the ten varieties investigated. Most correlations between selected chemical constituents and physical characteristics were relatively low. Dry beans had a well-organized …

The Effect of Organic Acids on Compositional Characteristic of Protein and Lipid Recovered During Isoelectric Solubilization/Precipitation Processing of Silver Carp and the Effectiveness of these Organic Acids on the Reduction of Staphylococcus aureus
… The objective of this study was to determine the proximate composition of the recovered materials from ISP after processing with different acid concentrations and the bactericidal effectiveness of these acids in comparison with hydrochloric acid (HCl) and acetic acid against Staphylococcus aureus …

Seasonal range analysis for white-tailed deer on the Broad Run Wildlife Research Area
… of key forages and determining their nutrient composition. Composite diets containing plant species which represented the major portions of each seasonal diet as indicated by food habits studies, were mixed for the summer, fall and winter seasons. For the spring flush and spring seasons, …

The effects of prebiotics on the growth performance and gastrointestinal microflora modulation in oreochromis mossambicus in Hardap region, Namibia
… while fish tissue samples were used to determine proximate composition analyses. 16S metagenomics sequencing of the bacterial communities available in the intestinal samples were carried out on Illumina Miseq with primers targeting the V3-V4 region of ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA). The results …

THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES FOR USING CHEMICAL OXIDIZING AND REDUCING AGENTS IN FLOURS AS A MEANS OF CONTROLLING GLUTEN STRENGTH PRIOR TO DEVELOPING DOUGH
… between wheat quality, grain and flour composition, and dough rheology. The cultivars varied in proximate composition which in turn directly impacted their dough handling. MicrodoughLAB absorption was found to be positively correlated with protein content, grain hardness, wet gluten and …

The use of bioelectrical impedance analysis for estimating the body composition of various fish species
… a reliable method to nonlethally estimate body composition is lacking. Proximate analysis is the most dependable and accurate method for estimating internal composition, but it is lethal, time consuming, and expensive. Recent research has shown bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to be an …

Development of fortified bakery products based on kokoro, a traditional Nigerian snack
… kokoro snack samples produced were evaluated for proximate composition and sensory qualities. The results of proximate analysis showed a significant (P<0.05) difference in moisture, protein, ash content, crude fat, crude fiber, carbohydrate content and energy values in all the blends of the kokoro …

Effects of Citrullus lanatus seed (Egusi) protein isolate on lipid peroxidation in malnourished rat fed on high fat diets
… and freeze-dried to obtain the protein isolate. Proximate composition shows that egusi seed isolate is rich in protein (63.4 %), and minerals. Functional properties indicate that the protein isolate has good oil absorbability and water binding capacity. The amino acid composition revealed the …

Bioelectrical impedance analysis as a predictor of fish health and energy content in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
… measuring body content using bomb calorimetry or proximate composition analysis; however, both of these methods necessitate sacrificing the fish in order to obtain accurate data. This has led to research into novel non-lethal methods of analyzing fish tissue so as to determine the body composition …

An Investigation of Mineral Supplementation of Diet on the Growth and Metabolism of Carp
… strengthened resistance to disease in carp. The proximate composition of the fish body and the contents of the cobalt in various organs varied according to the dietary cobalt levels in the diet. Judging from the growth rate of the fish, an adequate amount of cobalt, as cobelt chloride, in the …

The effects of feeding canola meal from high protein or conventional varieties of canola seeds on pork quality
… variety of canola (Brassica napus) contains approximately 45% crude protein and may be a more desirable option as a SMB alternative than historic varieties of canola because of its higher protein and lower crude fiber content. Sinapine is another anti-nutritional component found in CM, which …
