TALLOW FOR LAYING HENS
Effects of tallow supplementation on dietary nutrient and minimal amino acid utilization in the laying hen were studied in two experiments. In the first experiment diets contained six levels of animal tallow ranging from 0 to 10%. Percent egg production and egg mass were not significantly affected …

Restoration through reassembly: evaluating the role of native plants in combatting Chinese tallow
… of the non-native, invasive tree, Chinese tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera</em> [L.] Roxb.), hereafter tallow, across different flooding and light regimes, I investigated how restructuring native communities with valuable native species will prevent the reestablishment of tallow. I studied the …

Improving the cold temperature properties of tallow-based methyl ester mixtures using fractionation, blending, and additives
Beef tallow is a less common feedstock source for biodiesel than soy or canola oil, but it can have economic benefits in comparison to these traditional feedstocks. However, tallow methyl ester (TME) has the major disadvantage of poor cold temperature properties. Cloud point (CP) is an standard …

The effects of the invasive exotic Chinese tallow tree (Triadica sebifera) on amphibians and aquatic invertebrates
… with an emphasis on the effect of Chinese tallow (Triadica sebifera) leaf litter on anuran larvae (i.e., frog tadpoles). This question is important to our understanding of how allochthonous inputs to aquatic habitats drive biodiversity in wetlands. It also addresses a timely conservation …

Chinese Tallow Long-Term Impact on Stand Dynamics in a Bottomland Hardwood Forest Following Vegetation Management
<p>Chinese tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera</em> (L.) Small) is an invasive tree known to have negative impacts on bottomland hardwood forests. Chinese tallow is proficient in reproducing and surviving in bottomland hardwood forests because it is more flood and shade tolerant than most native trees. …

THE INFLUENCE OF THE INVASIVE CHINESE TALLOW (TRIADICA SEBIFERA) LEAF LITTER ON AQUATIC CHEMISTRY AND MICROBIAL COMMUNITY COMPOSITION
… The nonnative and invasive plant, Chinese Tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera), </em>has already invaded much of the south eastern US where it is outcompeting native tree species and changing ecosystem diversity in a variety of habitats. Leaf litter from the Chinese tallow has been shown cause …

Novel Relative Spontaneous Ignition Temperature Determination Using Carbon Dioxide Onset with STA/IR
… samples from <em>Triadica sebifera </em>(Chinese tallow), <em>Ligustrum sinense </em>(Chinese privet), and <em>Ilex vomitoria </em>(yaupon) plants. Identification of carbon dioxide was successful with a spectral match of 90.2 percent and further used in the determination of relative spontaneous …

Nutritional and endocrine aspects of the lactation cycle of Holstein and Jersey cows: nutrient balances, response to supplemental dietary fat, rib composition and rib histology
… 4 of 8 Jerseys were fed a diet supplemented with tallow. Holsteins fed tallow had lower somatotropin than Holsteins fed control diet at 14 and 18 wk. Plasma glucose, parathyroid hormone, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ were similar between tallow- and control-fed cows in both breeds. Plasma total …

Comparison of lactational and metabolic responses of postpartum dairy heifers and cows fed diets supplemented with corn, calcium stearate and tallow
… corn (H), C + 4% calcium stearate (S), or C + 4% tallow (T). C, S, and T contained 50:50 forage and concentrate dry matter and H contained 40:60.

Investigation of Polymeric Reagents for KCI Collection Furing Potash Flotation
… flotation, which is typically facilitated by tallow amine collectors. Recent developments in mineral extraction have begun to incorporate polymeric reagents within the refinement process. However to date, the use of polymers has yet to be evaluated for potash flotation. In this research, the …

Digestibility and palatability of animal, vegetable and animal-vegetable blended fats by the equine
… corn oil, blend no. 1, cottonseed oil, inedible tallow and fancy bleached tallow. When the most preferred fats from each classification (animal, vegetable and blended) were offered in single mixture palatability trails, no significant difference was observed in consumption. In Digestion …

NATURAL REGENERATION DYNAMICS AND SURVIVAL INFLUENCED BY ABIOTIC AND BIOTIC FACTORS IN A BOTTOMLAND HARDWOOD FOREST
… previously treated with herbicide for Chinese tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera </em>L.) and one untreated, reference area.</p> <p>Shade-tolerant species were, in general, more common in the regeneration layer than shade-intolerant species. Less-desirable native species, such as water-elm …

Biohydrogenation, postruminal flow, and apparent digestibility of dietary lipids in lactating Holstein cows
… cows were fed diets with 0% supplemental fat, 3% tallow, 3% partially hydrogenated tallow, or 3% tallow coated with casein and corn syrup solids. Fatty acid intake and flow to the duodenum increased with fat supplementation. Total tract apparent fatty acid digestibility was reduced by partially …

Synthesis of a triglyceride containing a lactonizable hydroxy fatty acid and investigations into the behavior of this triglyceride and related lactones with application to the analysis of beef tallow
The presence of lactones in beef tallow and butter suggested a similarity between the two fats. Butter $\gamma$- and $\delta$-lactones are believed to be derived from precursor 4- and 5-hydroxy fatty acids, respectively. However, methodology was never adequately developed for the concurrent …
