Objective evaluation of lean meat yield and EUROP scores for Icelandic lamb carcasses by video image analysis
… authorities. The heritability for VIAscan® yield prediction as proportions was generally high, ranging from 0.39 to 0.63,lowest for Shldr% and highest for Loin%. Heritability of viaEUROPc was 0.32 and 0.29 of viaEUROPf while heritability was 0.35 for pEUROPc and 0.31 for pEUROPf. For weight …

Effects of added dietary fat and protein on the growth and carcass characteristics of turkeys
… quality as measured by fat deposition, carcass yield and breast meat yield was determined. The addition of each 1% added fat up to 10% increased body weight gain .72%. Feed consumption decreased 1.3% and feed efficiency increased 2.3% for each 1% added fat up to 15%. Addition of Fat 2 to the …

The Effects Of Different Amino Acid Concentrations, With Or Without Chromium Supplementation, On The Performance And Yield Of Commercial Broiler Chickens Fed Two Different Feeding Programs.
… study was to evaluate performance parameters and meat yield of commercial broiler chickens fed diets with different amino acid concentrations, with or without chromium supplementation, and delivered through two different feeding programs over 54 days. The experimental study was completed as a …

CHARACTERIZATION OF PROTEIN SOURCES AND THEIR EFFECTS ON BROILER PERFORMANCE, DIGESTIVE TRACT MORPHOLOGY AND CAECAL FERMENTATION METABOLITES
… (IDP) fraction affected broiler performance and meat yield. The disease status of the birds and the level of digestible AA in the diets influenced the bird’s response to dietary IDP. The level of caecal metabolites depended on dietary protein source, disease status of the birds and PL. In …

A technology analysis of the U.S. Atlantic blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) processing industry
… type (sexual maturity) of crab and season on the yields of lump, top flake, bottom flake, and claw and total meat were examined. The effects of cooking time and method and storage time on meat yield was also determined. During summer, male crabs yielded more lump, claw, and total meat than female …

Evaluation of Different Probiotic Strains Supplemented in Commercial Broiler Rations and their Influences on Performance, Yield, and Intestinal Microbiota.
… rations and their influences on performance, yield, and intestinal microbiota. This trial was completed as a randomized-block design with 4,800 birds split into 96, 5’x10’ pens, and randomly assigned to one of eight treatment groups. The birds were placed at a stocking density of 1.00 …

Responses of Two Strains of Broilers to Diets Varying in Essential Amino Acid Density and Energy Levels
… gain, cumulative feed:gain, carcass weights and yields, parts weights, breast meat yield, and tender yield were negatively impacted by reduction of amino acid levels. Abdominal fat weights and yields were increased when energy levels were increased or amino acid levels decreased. Cumulative …

Tumble Marination Strategies to Improve pH, Color, and Water-Holding Capacity in Pale, Soft, and Exudative (PSE) Broiler Breast Fillets
… the incidence of pale soft and exudative poultry meat. Pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) meat is caused by a decline in pH early postmortem while carcass temperatures are still high. This decrease in pH leads to protein denaturation attributing to the pale color and poor water holding capacity (WHC) …

EFFECT OF PROTEASE SUPPLEMENTATION IN BROILER FEED ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE, CARCASS YIELD AND TOTAL NITROGEN RETENTION IN FECAL MATTER AND LITTER
… on commercial broiler performance, carcass yield, and nitrogen retention in fecal matter and litter. Total of 4,800 female (Ross 708) birds split into 96 floor pens, and randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups. Birds were placed within 96, 5’x10’ floor pens in a randomized-block …

Development of Alternative Crab Claw Processing Systems to Minimize Environmental Impact
… the Harris Claw machine, to separate crab claw meat and shell, nd this process yields a waste water which is significantly high in pollutant strength, and is untreatable by biological methods due to the toxicity associated with the high chloride concentrations found in the waste stream. Several …

The Effects Of Microencapsulated Vitamin And Trace Mineral Premixes And Red Osier Dogwood Extract On Growth Performance, Immune Response, And Gut Health Of Broiler Chickens In A Coccidiosis Vaccine Challenge Model
… nutrient digestibility, immune response, and meat yield during a coccidiosis vaccine challenge using a 12x label dose of live coccidiosis vaccine in broiler chickens housed in bioassay cages. The first study evaluated the effects of red osier dogwood extract (RDE) inclusion (0%, 0.15%, and …

Comparative Response of Different Broiler Genotypes to Dietary Nutrient Levels
… since the 1950's (HER) representing the old meat-type bird and three current strains (Ross 308, Ross 708, and a test product (TY)) were studied. Differences in growth, morphometry, and response in performance and processing yield to different nutrient levels were studied.</p> <p>Experiment 1 …

Effects of Supplementing Crystalline L-Valine and L-Isoleucine and a Novel Threonine Biomass in Reduced Crude Protein Diets fed to Broilers
… broiler growth performance, processing yields, or animal well-being. A common approach is to reduce dietary crude protein (CP), the second most expensive component in a broiler diet. Subsequently, reducing CP will reduce the inclusion levels of intact protein sources (e.g., soybean meal …

Determination of methionine and lysine requirements of growing broilers using the Ideal Protein Concept
… improved dressing percentage and breast meat yield. There were differences in the estimated ratios of Met or TSAA to Lys required for optimizing FI, BWG, and FCR for broiler chickens fed different Lys levels. Results of this study suggest that the response to variation in Lys level is …
