Ingestive Behaviour of Grazing Ruminants: Meta-Analysis of the Components of Bite Mass
Bite mass (BM) is the main parameter determining intake, production level and efficiency for grazing ruminants. Various data have been published concerning BM and its components bite diameter, bite area, bite depth and bite volume (BDiam, BA, BD and BV).

Is Hand Plucking an Accurate Method of Estimating Bite Mass and Instantaneous Intake of Grazing Herbivores? [PDF]
Instantaneous intake is central to the understanding of large herbivore foraging strategies and rangeland ecology. Unfortunately, its measurement under field conditions remains challenging because of the difficulty of estimating bite mass. The hand plucking method provides a simple, noninvasive method of estimating bite masses and thus instantaneous ...

Inter-Relationships Among Body Mass, Jaw Musculature and Bite Force in Birds
AbstractBite force can provide an insight into the feeding biomechanics and ecology of vertebrates. There has been an increasing interest in bite force in birds with data being collected using force transducers although bite forces have also been calculated from the mass of the jaw musculature.

Effects of Herbage Mass and Herbage Allowance on Bite Mass of Grazing Dairy Cows
Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2021Abstract Dry matter intake (DMI) of herbage is a product of bite rate and bite mass and is a determinant of the performance of grazing ruminants. This research tested the effect of herbage allowance and herbage mass on average bite mass of individual dairy cows grazing perennial ryegrass herbage (Lolium perenne L.).

Inter-Relationships Among Body Mass, Body Dimensions, Jaw Musculature and Bite Force in Reptiles
AbstractBite force is important in understanding how feeding biomechanics impacts the life‐history of vertebrates. Bite force has been measured in many lizards and crocodilians but fewer turtles and snakes. Few comparative interspecific studies exist of the inter‐relationships between body size, jaw musculature and bite force.

AbstractThe effect of sward structure of four temperate grass species on the bite mass of cattle was evaluated. Micro‐swards (79 cm × 47 cm; approximately the area of a feeding station) of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), quackgrass [Elymus repens (L.) Gould], meadow fescue [Schedonorus pratensis (Huds.) P.

To gain more insight into the mechanism of muscle plasticity in response to mechanical overload, we analyzed the effects of bite -opening (BO, 3 mm increase in the vertical dimension for 2 weeks) and/or a calcineurin (CaN) inhibitor, cyclosporin A (CsA, 10 mg/kg body weight, once daily for 2 weeks, ip) treatment on the myosin heavy chain (MHC I, IIa ...

Relationship between bite force and body mass index in the institutionalized elderly
Geriatrics & Gerontology International, 2005Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible relationship between nutritional status and chewing ability in the institutionalized elderly.Methods: We examined the oral condition and bite force in relation to the age, sex and body mass index (BMI) in 559 institutionalized elderly (155 men and 404 women).

“Bite-Wing” X Rays—A Scheme for Mass Dental Radiography
The British Journal of Radiology, 1946A scheme has been devised whereby accurate X rays for interstitial caries can be taken quickly by dental assistants. It is hoped that this scheme may be used in the R.A.F. to lower the incidence of dental pain while flying, but a much wider field can be envisaged for its application.
