Dietary crude protein and nitrogen utilisation in two contrasting dairy systems : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Science, School of Agriculture and Environment, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand
… thesis evaluated the efficiency of crude protein utilisation (ECPU) in dairy cows and nitrogen (N) utilisation efficiency (NUE) of two pasture-based dairy systems differing in intensification levels in New Zealand. During two consecutive seasons, in the low-intensity production system (LIPS), 257 …

The Continuous Production of Alcohol in Tower Fermenters
… zone between the latter two zones. Sugar utilisation, nitrogen utilisation, and alcohol production rates were among the variables investigated during experimental work and some suggestions have been made for the stable operation of tower fermenters. Finally, a mathematical model of the …

Nitrogen metabolism in meatmaster sheep fed brewers grain as a supplementary source of protein
This study aimed to examine how nitrogen metabolism in sheep is affected when brewers’ grains are added to diet as a supplementary protein source. Eight Meatmaster rams (average live weight 30 ± 3.2 kg; approximately 6 months old) were randomly allocated to four iso-energetic and iso-nitrogenous …

Translating plant protein benefits to consumer products: physicochemical, technological and nutritional aspects of utilising plant protein ingredients for cereal food applications
… protein + 65%). Also, a substantially improved nitrogen utilisation (+ 69%) and protein efficiency ratio (+ 88%) compared to regular wheat bread were found in in vivo nitrogen balance tests. Fermentation (utilising the strain Leuconostoc citreum TR116) was investigated as a tool to further …

The release of nitrogen and carbohydrate from herbage during comminution
… with which ruminants utilise dietary N utilisation is low, leading to substantial losses of N to the environment, particularly in urine. There are considerable political and societal pressures for farmers to reduce N losses, yet still maintain productivity. To enable reductions in N …
