Abstract:

Poultry is susceptible to mycotoxicoses caused by aflatoxins. Two experiments were carried out, where twenty-four, 28days old and 144 one-day-old broilers were assigned to six diets respectively. The diets were: diet1 (no aflatoxin and not fermented), diet2 (no aflatoxin and fermented without yeast), diet3 (no aflatoxin and fermented with yeast), diet4 (contained aflatoxin and not fermented), diet5 (contained aflatoxin and fermented without yeast) and diet6 (contained aflatoxin fermented with yeast). The aflatoxins were 20.034 and 30.08ppb for the first and second experiments respectively. In the first experiment, each diet was assigned to 4 chickens for 7days adaptation and 7days for feces and leftover collection. The feces were oven dried for the determination of dry matter digestibility (DMD), metabolizable energy (ME) and nitrogen (MN). In the second experiment, each diet was assigned to six chicks, replicated 4 times for 21days. Leftovers and mortalities were recorded daily and chicks were weighed on a weekly basis. The results showed that DMD and MN were significantly (p<0.05) affected by fermentation. Natural fermentation improved DMD of the clean and contaminated diets. No difference found in feed intake and body weight gain. However, gain: feed ratio was significantly (p=0.048) better in broilers fed diets fermented naturally. The mortality rate was 75.0% in chicks fed on aflatoxin diet which was not fermented. Therefore, natural fermentation is the best method of improving the quality of aflatoxin contaminated feed for broilers.

Abstract:

The link between diet and health has been long known, as well as the fact that an increase in saturated fats and simple, refined carbohydrates in the diet, combined with our modern sedentary lifestyle, is contributing to an epidemic of diseases such as obesity and diet-related metabolic conditions. Although these can be multi-factorial disorders, simple lifestyle changes such as eating more fruit and vegetables in the diet and physical activity are known to be major factors in decreasing their prevalence. This has led to a focus on how dietary habits are affecting our overall health and how this information can be utilized to provide dietary solutions to combat the obesity epidemic. Of particular interest is the relationship between the digestion of starchy foods, which comprise 55–75% of dietary energy intake, and the subsequent effects on health.

Abstract:

Linear programming is an important mathematical technique, which is widely used in military operations, economic analysis, management, and engineering technology to find the optimal choice. Moreover, it is useful when trying to find the best outcome that involves several resource constraints, like animal diet. In this paper, we will become cattle ranchers, trying to figure out the best combination of feeds for the three groups of cattle. We also considered the cattles environmental impact, methane emission, into the linear program. The goal is to minimize the cost while balancing the cattles nutritional needs and lowering methane emissions. The Simplex Loop used to solve linear programs is also explained, however, we used MATLAB to arrive at the solution.

Abstract:

Introduction. There are 103 toddlers in West Lombok suffering from severe malnutrition throughout 2013. This regency is ranked as the second place out of ten districts/cities in NTB having severely malnourished. It is due to the fact that illness and parenting-parents have yet been considered. The purpose of this study was to analyze relationship parenting-parent with diet and toddlers food consumption.Method. This study used analytical observation research with Cross-sectional design. The population were the entire households having children at Banyu Urip village with the samples, eighty-one toddlers, were taken through random sampling technique. Its data was analyzed by using Spearman Rank. Result. The finding shows; 1) parenting-parents, most authoritarian, is 47 (58%); 2) diet toddler, good category, is 58 (71.6%); 3) food-consumption on toddlers, deficit category, is 27 (33.3%); 4) no relationship among the parenting-parents, diet (p= 0.095) and toddler food consumption (p = 0.17). Discussion. Thus, it can be inferred that an authoritarian-parenting is the best parenting to diet and food-consumption for toddler-malnutrition.Key words: Parenting, Diet, Food-consumption, Toddler

Abstract:

Background Previous research has shown that an anti-inflammatory diet can reduce inflammation and improve health outcomes in individuals with neurological disability; however, long term dietary adherence has proven to be challenging. Accordingly, we have designed a 2-part consultation targeted at identified barriers for adherence to an anti-inflammatory diet in this population. Objectives This study aimed to determine the effects of the consultation on self-efficacy for adhering to an anti-inflammatory diet, as well as adherence and health outcomes one month post-intervention. Design/Methods Eleven individuals (10 female, age 51.5±12.6 years) with neurological disability (7 multiple sclerosis, 3 spinal cord injury, 1 muscular dystrophy; 20.5±10.6 years post-injury/diagnosis) participated. The intervention group (n=7) received recipes for an anti-inflammatory diet and the 2-part consultation, while controls (n=4) received the recipes only. The consultation consisted of a home-visit that included cooking and accessible kitchen equipment demonstrations, and an accompanied trip to the grocery store. Results Both task and barrier self-efficacy improved immediately following the consultation and tended to stay above baseline one month post-intervention. The consultation was also associated with increased dietary adherence one month post-intervention and decreased depressive symptoms as measured by the Centre for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Changes in dietary adherence (r=-0.61; p=0.045), and barrier self-efficacy (r=-0.77; p=0.009) were negatively correlated to changes in CES-D scores. Conclusions A consultation targeted at barriers related to anti-inflammatory eating can improve self-efficacy for adherence as well as actual adherence and depressive symptomology one month later. Further follow-up studies to determine the persistence of these effects are warranted.

Abstract:

Poultry farmers who rely on commercial feeds sourced from the market always suffer some forms of financial loss due to sub-standard nature of such feeds. The normal practice is to formulate a balanced diet and compound the feeds with good quality ingredients. These conditions are not always within the control of the farmers who rely on buying finished feeds from the market. There is dearth of information on the quality of these common types of feedsin the market with the aim of recommending the best to the farmers. This study was therefore, carried out to examine the response of broilers to three commercial feeds at the starter and finisher phases. One hundred and eighty 1-day-old unsexed Marshal broilers at three replicates of twenty birds each were used for the study; and lasted for eight weeks. Feed and water were supplied ad libitum. The performance, carcass, haematological and biochemicalparameters of the experimental birds were measured. The three diets were tagged Diets 1, 2 and 3 each representing a treatment. The average final live weight (AFLW), daily weight gain (ADWG), daily feed intake (ADFI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were significantly (P < 0.05) influenced by the feed types (dietary treatments). The highest AFLW (758.37g/b) was obtained for broiler starters fed Diet 2 compared to 689.60g/b (Diet 1) and 263.37g/b (Diet3). The ADWG followed the same trend with birds fed Diet 2 having the highest value (25.67g/b) compared with 23.22g/b (Diet 1) and 8.00g/b (Diet 3). The ADFI (starters) were 72.88, 80.36 and 62.20g/b respectively for birds fed Diets 1, 2 and 3. The corresponding ADFI (g/b/d) for the finishers were 133.63 (Diet 1), 177.53 (Diet 2) and 58.57 (Diet 3); and ADWG (g/b/d) 42.49 (Diet 1), 51.79 (Diet 2) and 8.57 (Diet 3). Diet 2 gave the best performance in terms of weight gain, followed by Diet 1 and Diet 3 in that order for the finishers. However, the average cost per kg weight gain of the birds for the 2 phases were ? 307.88 (Diet 1), ? 309.29 (Diet 2), and ? 582.74 (Diet 3). All the carcass (live weight, bled weight, plucked weight, eviscerated weight, dressed weight and abdominal fat); and internal organs such as heart, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, intestine and proventriculus were significantly (P < 0.05) affected by dietary treatments. The RBC, Hb, Basophils, total protein, albumin and globulin differed significantly (P < 0.05) across the diets. It can be concluded that birds fed Diet 1 gavethe best overall economic, carcass, haematology and serological performance. Commercial Diet (feed) 1 is therefore recommended for broiler farmers.

Abstract:

This study evaluated the impact of diet as a mitigation action to improve the water efficiency of lactating cows. An intensive pasture dairy system was considered to calculate direct and indirect water use. Group 1 was fed with a diet containing 20% crude protein content. The crude protein content of Group 2 was adjusted according to milk production, ranging from 23% to 14.5%. The total water footprints had a value of 502.4 L kg-1 fat protein corrected milk for Group 1 and 451.2 L kg-1 fat protein corrected milk for Group 2. The diet with the adjusted protein provided a reduction of 10% in the footprint value. The green water footprint was the most representative of consumption in the total value of the water footprint, 86.4% and 85.5% for Groups 1 and 2, respectively. The animals in Group 1 had a mean total drinking water consumption of 83.3 L animal-1 day-1 and those of Group 2, 80.4 L animal-1 day-1. This study demonstrated that high crude protein content in the diet provided a greater water footprint, therefore lower water efficiency. The proposed nutritional practice proved viable as a water-mitigating action, making the ratio of liters of water per liter of milk more advantageous. The results of this study could be considered a validation of a nutritional mitigation practice to improve water efficiency and could be used as best management for the dairy supply chain.

Abstract:

Abstract Three experiments were carried out to study whether a gestation diet, a simple transition diet, or a lactation diet is the best choice in late gestation and when sows preferably should be transferred to a high crude protein (CP) lactation diet. In experiment 1, 35 sows were fed either a gestation diet (12.1% CP), a lactation diet (15.9% CP), or a 50/50 mix (simple transition diet; 14.0% CP) from 6 d before parturition until parturition, to study the impact on farrowing and colostrum performance. In experiment 2, 90 sows were studied from 6 d before parturition until weaning at day 24 and they were fed one of five strategies: a gestation diet until day 3 or day 10 of lactation (strategy 1 and 2) and then lactation diet; a simple transition diet until day 3 or day 10 (strategy 3 and 4) and then lactation diet; or a lactation diet throughout the study (strategy 5). In experiment 3, 124 sows were fed strategy 1 or 5. Sows were weighed and back fat (BF) scanned when entering the farrowing unit and at day 2, 10, 17, and 24. Piglets were weighed at birth and after 24 h, and colostrum production was studied (experiment 1). Litter weight at day 2, 10, 17, and 24 was recorded, milk and blood samples were collected weekly and sow fat and protein mobilization, and balances of energy, N, and Lys were calculated from day 3 to 10 of lactation (experiment 2). Total- and live born piglets, and frequencies of stillbirth and piglet diarrhea were recorded (experiment 3). Feeding sows a gestation diet, a simple transition diet, or a lactation diet showed no evidence of effects on colostrum production or farrowing process (experiments 1 and 3) or lactation performance (experiments 2 and 3). Compared to previous studies, sows had a poor milk yield. Plasma urea was elevated (P < 0.001) indicating CP oversupply prior to parturition in sows fed the lactation diet as compared with the two other diets. According to calculated balances, all dietary strategies supplied insufficient amounts of N and Lys from day 3 to 10, indicating that the best choice is to feed sows with a high CP lactation diet from parturition and onwards. Primiparous sows had a higher plasma insulin concentration (P < 0.01), lower colostrum yield (P < 0.01), and higher frequency of piglet diarrhea (P < 0.001) than multiparous sows. In conclusion, in our conditions (high CP in gestation diet; poor milk yield; restricted feeding in early lactation), sow performance was not compromised by the dietary strategies, but results indicate that primiparous and multiparous sows should be fed differently.

Abstract:

Ninety-one individuals with phenylketonuria who were treated early in life were followed for as many as 22 years. Regression analyses were used to determine the best predictors of IQ and IQ change. Among treatment-related variables, good dietary control of the blood phenylalanine level stood out as the best predictor of IQ. Diet discontinuation and the natural (off diet) blood phenylalanine level best predicted IQ loss, suggesting that diet continuation may be important for children with natural blood phenylalanine levels greater than 18 mg/dL.

Abstract:

Background: Obesity is a teenage health problem that needs to be addressed. One of the handling efforts in overcoming excess weight is proper eating/diet settings. Research Methods: This type of research is a quasi-experimental design with a randomized pre-post test control group design. The research subjects used in this study were female adolescents aged 18-20 years with overweight nutritional status. The variables measured were body weight before and after treatment. The data obtained were tested statistically univariate to get an overview of the distribution of research variables and bivariate test to determine the effect of the REST diet on changes in body weight. Research Result: The results showed that the average weight loss in the treatment group was 0.92 kg, and the control group was 0.67 kg. From the results of the Paired-samples T-Test, a significant value of 0.000 (p <0.05) was obtained, which means that there was a substantial difference in the mean weight before and after treatment. Conclusion: The conclusion is that there is a difference in body weight before and after the study, but there is no effect of giving the REST diet on weight loss in obese adolescents.Background: Obesity is a teenage health problem that needs to be addressed.

The research subjects used in this study were female adolescents aged 18-20 years with overweight nutritional status. The variables measured were body weight before and after treatment. The data obtained were tested statistically univariate to get an overview of the distribution of research variables and bivariate test to determine the effect of the REST diet on changes in body weight. Research Result: The results showed that the average weight loss in the treatment group was 0.92 kg, and the control group was 0.67 kg. From the results of the Paired-samples T-Test, a significant value of 0.000 (p <0.05) was obtained, which means that there was a substantial difference in the mean weight before and after treatment. Conclusion: The conclusion is that there is a difference in body weight before and after the study, but there is no effect of giving the REST diet on weight loss in obese adolescents.

Abstract:

Abstract Lobster is among freshwater crustaceans which is potentially cultivated in aquaculture system. This present study was conducted to determine the growth and survival rate of freshwater lobster Cherax quadricarinatus fed different forage feed. The experimental methode used a completely randomized design consisted of 4 treatments in triplicate: commercial diet (PL), commercial diet and carrots (PW), commercial diet and potatoes (PK) and commercial diet and sweet potatoes (PU). The experimental lobsters were 5-7 cm in size and 6-8 g in weight. Results indicated that forage feeding can affect the total weight and length, weight gain, specific growth rate and survival rate of lobster. Data showed the best weight gain and specific growth rate were found in PW (34.37±0.30%) and (1.05±0.03%), respectively. The lowest survival rate was seen in PU at 86.67%. However, the best feed conversion ratio gained by PL at 1.74±0.09. This study suggested that the combination of commercial diet with carrots provided the best growth performances in freshwater lobster Cherax quadricarinatus.

Abstract:

Clarias anguillaris fries were fed with three isoproteic (30.25%) and isoenergetic (1.42 MJ/Kg) diets to evaluate the effects of plant seed oil on the growth performance, feed efficiency and survival rate. The test was carried out on Clarias anguillaris with an initial average weight of 0.07 g distributed in 6 plastic tanks with a stocking density of 15 fries each. The treatments were in duplicate for 45 days. The results of this experiment showed that the fish fed diet B containing Adansonia digitata seed oil as a source of lipid has the best total average weight gain (AWGa) (0.15g) compared to those fed with P and S diets containing fish oil and the Balanites aegyptiaca seed oil respectively. Similar results were obtained with the specific growth rate, which showed a significant difference between the fish fed with B diet and those fed with S and P diets that do not differ significantly between them. The best feed conversion rate (FCR) was obtained with the fish fed with B diet, which showed a significant difference with the fish fed with P and S. The best survival rate (SR) of 80% was obtained with the fish fed with diet B, followed by 73% in fish fed with diet S, and finally the lowest value 67% was contained in the fish fed with the control diet P. The best protein efficiency ratio (PER) was obtained with the fish fed with diet B (1.16) followed by the fish fed with diet S (0.80) compared with the fish fed with the control diet P (0.74). From the results of this study, we can say the replacement of fish oil with Balanites aegyptiaca seed oil and Adansonia digitata seed oil has no negative impact on the growth of Clarias anguillaris fries. In conclusion, diet B containing Adansonia digitata seed oil appears to be more suitable for Clarias anguillaris fry growth.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background Recent evidence has confirmed that nuts are one of the best food groups at reducing LDL cholesterol and total cholesterol (TC). However, the comparative effects of different types of nuts on blood lipids are unclear. Objectives This network meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials aimed to assess the comparative effects of walnuts, pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews, and almonds on typical lipid profiles. Methods We conducted literature searches to identify studies comparing ≥2 of the following diets—walnut-enriched, pistachio-enriched, hazelnut-enriched, cashew-enriched, almond-enriched, and control diets—for the management of triglycerides (TGs), LDL cholesterol, TC, and HDL cholesterol. Random-effects network meta-analyses, ranking analyses based on the surface under the cumulative ranking (SUCRA) curves, and sensitivity analyses according to the potential sources of heterogeneity across the included studies were performed for each outcome. Results Thirty-four trials enrolling 1677 participants were included in this study. The pistachio-enriched diet was ranked best for TG (SUCRA: 85%), LDL cholesterol (SUCRA: 87%), and TC (SUCRA: 96%) reductions. For TG and TC reductions, the walnut-enriched diet was ranked as the second-best diet. Regarding LDL cholesterol reduction, the almond-enriched diet was ranked second best. The pistachio-enriched and walnut-enriched diets were more effective at lowering TG, LDL cholesterol, and TC compared with the control diet. Regarding TG and TC reductions, the pistachio-enriched diet was also more effective than the hazelnut-enriched diet. For TG reduction, the walnut-enriched diet was better than the hazelnut-enriched diet. However, these findings are limited by the low quality of evidence ratings. In addition, the quality of this network meta-analysis was limited by the small number and generally poor reporting of available studies. Conclusions The pistachio-enriched and walnut-enriched diet could be better alternatives for lowering TGs, LDL cholesterol, and TC compared with other nut-enriched diets included in this study. The findings warrant further evaluation by more high-quality studies. This network meta-analysis was registered at www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO as CRD42019131128.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The expression and activity of fatty acid synthase (FAS) enzymes determine de novo fatty acid synthesis, which can be enhanced by a high-fat and high fructose diet or inhibited by some bioactive compound diets. Beets are a great source of therapeutic compounds that have the potential to improve health and prevent disease. AIM: This study examined the effects of beets on liver FAS gene expression and FAS levels. METHODS: A total of 25 male Wistar rats divided into five groups: (1) Standard diet (n); (2) high fat and fructose diet (HFFD); (3) HFFD have given beet 6%-contained standard diet (B1); (4) HFFD have given beet 9%-contained standard diet (B2), and (5) HFFD have given beet 12%-contained standard diet (B3). The HFFD was given to rats in the 2, 3, 4, and 5 group diets for 8 weeks? and then 3, 4, and 5 groups received beet-contained standard diet for 6 weeks. At the end of the intervention, FAS levels were measured (please specify where it was measured from) using the ELISA method, liver FAS gene expression was analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and triglyceride (TG) levels were determined by the colorimetric method. RESULTS: The beet-substituted diet significantly suppressed the hepatic FAS gene expression and decreased the serum FAS levels in rats previously given HFFD (p < 0.05). The expression of the FAS gene showed a significant positive correlation with the levels of FAS serum (p < 0.05), and also with the hepatic TG levels but not significant (p > 0.05). Substitution of beet 9% in diet gives the best effect in hepatic FAS gene expression and the serum FAS levels. CONCLUSIONS: The diet contained beet 9% was seen as a necessary physiological dose to improve the effects of high-fat and diet fructose diet through suppressing FAS gene expression and a decreased serum FAS levels.

Abstract:

To investigate the effects of replacement of fish oil by a mixture of Balanites aegyptiaca and Adansonia digitata seed oils three isonitrogenous (35.36%) and isoenergetic diets (3.48 MJ / kg) were formulated for one kilogram (1kg). The study was carried out on fries Clarias anguillaris for six weeks.At the beginning of the experiment, 90 Clarias anguillaris of the initial average weight of 0.82 ± 0.055g were randomly divided into three different groups with two replicates containing 15 fish/each. Fish were kept in six plastic tanks (50 x 40 x 30 cm) container (50 L). The results showed that the substitution of fish oil by a mixture of Balanites aegyptiaca seed oil and Adansonia digitata seed oil gives growth for all diets. However, the best growths are obtained from all points of view (MWGr, MWGa and SGR) with diet A (mixture of Adansonia seed oil and Balanites seed oil at a ratio of 20 : 20) followed by the diet D (mixture of Adansonia seed oil and Balanites seed oil at 10 : 30) compare to the control diet M containing fish oil. The best FCR was observed with the diet A followed by the diet D compare to the FCR observed with the diet M. The PER was higher in diet A (0.57) followed by diet D with (0.45) that has no significant difference with the control diet M (0.43). The highest value 63% was obtained with the diet D followed by 60% with the diet M and finally the lowest value 53% was obtained with the diet A. In regards to the growth performance, fish fed a 100% vegetable oil diet showed the best growth performance. Therefore, the replacement of fish oil with a mixture of Balanites aegyptiaca seed oil and Adansonia digitata seed oil has no negative impact on the growth of Clarias anguillaris fry. It would be interesting first to study the inclusion rate of Balanites aegyptiaca seed oil for a partial replacement of fish oil.

Abstract:

The Asian weaver ant (Oecophylla smaragdina) is sometimes used as a biocontrol agent against pests in tropical agriculture as part of integrated pest management programmes. However, the effectiveness of weaver ants as a predator depends on the abundance and activity of colonies in naturally occurring populations. Mass-rearing is a method that could be useful both for getting lots of colonies and for maximising colony growth and aggressiveness. The diet of mass reared weaver ants potentially impacts their growth rate and behaviour. In this study, we investigate the effect of four common commercial protein diets (mackerel, tuna, cricket and mealworms) on O. smaragdina colony growth and aggressiveness during mass-rearing over a two-month experimental study at the Smart Research Institute, Riau, Indonesia. Colonies fed on mackerel, the cheapest protein source, and mealworm were able to grow significantly larger than those fed on tuna, even though colonies fed with mackerel showed the lowest amount of mass intake of protein food. In contrast, colonies fed with crickets (the diet with the greatest proportion of protein) had the greatest aggression index against experimentally placed bagworms (a common pest in oil palm plantations), with their aggression being significantly greater than that for mackerel-fed colonies. Taken together, our results show that there are trade-offs between different protein diets for weaver ant colonies in mass rearing facilities. Protein diet can be chosen depending on whether colony growth rate, colony aggressiveness, or price is the main factor driving decisions.

Abstract:

Ten Fingerlings each of Clarias gariepinus were fed with five experimental diets compounded with major nutrient sources with varying percentages of protein obtained from housefly Musca domestica maggot meal (HFMM) at 0%, 12.5%, 50% and 100% inclusion in diets I, II, III, and IV respectively. Diet V was made up of HFMM only. The effect of the varying protein content on the growth and development of the fingerlings were studied for 8 weeks. The best-feed conversion ratio was observed in diet II (25% maggot inclusion) while the least was in diet V (whole maggot). Feed utilization was highest in diet I (0% maggot). Fish fed on diet I recorded the highest growth rate (SGR) and was least in fish fed on diet V (whole maggot). Also, the highest protein efficiency ratio (PER) was recorded in fish fed on diet Ill and least in fish fed with diet V. Proximate analysis of fish fed on the different diets revealed that crude protein was least in fish without experimental diet (70.05%) and highest in fish fed with whole maggot (diet V) 76.31%. The ash content of fish carcass composition before and after feed trial did not follow a definite pattern. The results of the study showed that the survival and the development of fingerlings were best when maggot was used as supplement.
