Valorization of Prickly Pear Peel Residues (Opuntia ficus-indica) Using Solid-State Fermentation

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Prickly pear peel (Opuntia ficus-indica) residues can be used as a substrate in solid-state fermentation to obtain bioactive compounds. The kinetic growth of some Aspergillus strains was evaluated.

Nitrogen metabolism and milk production in dairy cows fed semi-restricted amounts of ryegrass-legume silage with birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) or white clover (Trifolium repens L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In change-over trials, mid-lactation dairy cows were fed concentrate-supplemented, isonitrogenous and isofibrous perennial ryegrasslegume silage diets that satisfied energy requirements but were suboptimal with respect to metabolizable protein supply ...

Exploring the anthelmintic properties of Australian native shrubs with respect to their potential role in livestock grazing systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We measured in vitro anthelmintic activity in extracts from 85 species of Australian native shrub, with a view to identifying species able to provide a degree of worm control in grazing systems.

Condensed Tannins in Plant Defense: A Perspective on Classical Theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Classical theories of condensed tannin-herbivore interactions should be reassesed. Condensed tannins may act in ways apart from digestion inhibition and may even act as metabolic toxins outside of the digestive system. Recent research has also questioned

Are giraffes pollinators or flower predators of Acacia nigrescens in Kruger National Park, South Africa? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We examined the relationship between giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis) and Acacia nigrescens in Kruger National Park, South Africa, to determine whether these tall ungulates may be providing a pollination service for the trees, or are simply flower ...

Antioxidant Tannins from Stem Bark and Fine Root of Casuarina equisetifolia

open access: yesMolecules, 2010
Structures of condensed tannins from the stem bark and fine root of Casuarina equisetifolia were identified using MALDI-TOF MS and HPLC analyses. The condensed tannins from stem bark and fine root consist predominantly of procyanidin combined with ...

DETERMINING THE TANNIN CONTENT IN PISANG AMBON (Musa × paradisiaca L.) WITH THE POTENTIAL AS ANTHELMINTIC

open access: yesJurnal Kimia Riset, 2022
Tannins result from plants' secondary metabolism, closely associated with plant defense mechanisms against insects. Condensed tannins can disrupt the life cycle of parasitic nematodes starting from eggs, adult worms, and larvae.
