Effects of protein source and calcium level on the utilization of minerals in adult men
The effect of three sources of protein: soy, dairy, and meat protein, and two levels of calcium on zinc, iron, copper, calcium, and magnesium retention in young adult men was determined in a 30-day metabolic balance study. The study was divided into a twenty-day baseline period, a thirty day …

Application of the Statistical Energy Landscape Theory to Protein Structure Prediction
… statistical mechanical energy functions for protein structure prediction by threading and simulated annealing molecular dynamics methods. These optimized energy functions improve upon the previous approximations of Goldstein, Luthey-Schulten and Wolynes by taking into account correlations in …

Reduction of Campylobacter jejuni on Chicken Wingettes by Treatment with Caprylic Acid, Chitosan or Protective Cultures of Lactobacillus spp.
<p>Poultry is one of the main sources of protein in the United States and in 2014 Americans ate approximately 100 lbs per person. However, consumption of poultry products is strongly associated with foodborne illness from Campylobacter. In the first study, chitosan, caprylic acid and their …

An Experimental Comparison of the Feeding Value of Soy Bean with Alfalfa Hay for Feeding Dairy Cows
… the last few years has been to use more and more of the legumes for feeding dairy cows. Just a few years ago (1)”Dairymen near the Yakima Valley, Washington state, fed their cows nothing but alfalfa hay during the winter. The cows received 40 to 50 pounds of alfalfa per cow per day and produced …

Rapeseed, Sunflower and Soybean Meals as Protein Supplements in Dairy Calf Starters
<p>The world need for protein is ever-increasing causing the feed industry to seek new sources of protein supplementation for livestock (17). Urea and other non-protein-nitrogen (NPN) source have received much attention in the past twenty years as protein substitutes, but their use is limited to …

Utilization of Soybean Products as Fish-Meal Protein Replacements in Yellow Perch Perca flavescens Feeds
As a result of increasing demand, uncertain availability, and increasing cost for fish meal (FM), fish nutritionists have been driven to find alternative sources of protein. Particularly for carnivorous species such as Yellow Perch Perca flavescens (Mitchell), alternative plant-based feedstuffs …

Spatial distribution and intensity of snare poaching in the Boland region of South Africa: implications for optimising anti-poaching efforts
The human population of sub-Saharan Africa is growing exponentially, increasing anthropogenic impacts on natural resources, including wildlife, both inside and outside of protected areas. The rising demand for cheap sources of protein is fuelling the harvesting of bushmeat. In South Africa, illegal …
