For a pet diet to be labeled as human-grade, every ingredient and the finished food must be stored, handled, processed, and transported according to the current good manufacturing practices for human edible foods. Human-grade dog foods are now available and increasing in popularity, but little research has been conducted to test the digestibility of ...

Dietary fibre and the importance of the gut microbiota in feline nutrition : a review [PDF]
Domestic cats are obligate carnivores and in this light hindgut fermentation has been considered unimportant in this species. However, a diverse microbiota has been found in the small and large intestines of domestic cats.

Evaluation of red and white sorghum as alternative carbohydrate sources and the effects of extrusion in monogastric nutrition through the determination of macronutrient digestibility, fecal microbiota, digestible and metabolizable energy content [PDF]
The pet food market follows human nutrition trends such as being gluten-free, non-genetically modified, and wheat-free. Additionally, alternative sources of grains and carbohydrates are needed to feed production animals, companion animals, and the ...

Abstract Microbial determinations were made on excreta obtained from intact, cecectomized, and ileal-cannulated roosters. Mean diaminopimelic acid (DAP) quantities in the excreta from intact and cecectomized birds did not differ significantly. The DAP value was greater in excreta from intact and cecectomized birds when they were fed 30 g of either ...

Justifying phytogenic feed additive matrix values in conjunction with exogenous feed enzymes [PDF]
Phytogenic feed additives are purported to possess antimicrobial properties as well as nutrient sparing characteristics that may aid in alleviating high diet costs; however, in order for PFAs to assist nutritionists in decreasing diet cost, matrix values
