Empty Body Component Gain of Rats Grown at Different Rates to a Range of Final Weights

The Journal of Nutrition, 1984
Rate of gain by final weight response surfaces for gain of empty body water, protein, lipid and ash were defined with data from 62 male Sprague-Dawley rats. Rats were fed for 21 days at 100, 88, 76, 64, 52 or 40% of ad libitum intake within each of five initial weight groups ranging from 84 to 286 g.

Variation of Stomach Shapes in Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy: Correlation With Gastric Emptying Results, Body Weight, and Symptoms

Neurogastroenterology & Motility
ABSTRACTBackgroundAlthough different gastric shapes are encountered in gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES), it is not known whether gastric shape is related to gastric emptying (GE) or symptoms.AimTo investigate different stomach shapes observed during GES and examine their associations with GE, body weight, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms ...

Effect of a Balanced Mixture of Dietary Fibers on Gastric Emptying, Intestinal Transit and Body Weight

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2008
<i>Background/Aims:</i> Dietary fibers are frequently included in diets to decrease body weight, but their scarce palatability and the occurrence of meteorism prevent a long-term intake. The aim of this study was to test a mixture of dietary fibers expressly chosen to decrease their negative properties and strengthen their positive effects.

Growth rate and its effect on empty body weight, carcass weight and dissected carcass composition of sheep

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1976
SummaryThe effect of three different growth rates from 15 to 40 kg live weight on the body composition of lambs was studied. The treatments were: High (H) ad-libitum feed intake, Low (L) restricted feed intake and High–Maintenance–High (HMH) ad-libitum feed intake from 15 to 25 kg followed by a 50-day period during which live weight was maintained ...

Effects of three different growth rates on empty body weight, carcass weight and dissected carcass composition of cattle

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1974
SUMMARYA study was made of the effect on body composition of growing Angus steers from 300 to 440 kg at three different rates. The rates were: High (H) 0·8 kg/day, Low (L) 0·4 kg/day and High-Maintenance (HM) 0·8 kg/day followed by a period during which body weight was maintained constant.The animals were individually penned and the different growth ...

Prediction of body weight and composition in lactating dairy cows: Prediction of empty body contents of lipid and crude protein

Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 2005
The accurate prediction of body composition of dairy cows is important for developing appropriate nutritional and management regimes. The objective of the present study was to develop prediction equations for empty body (EB) composition of lactating dairy cows using body weight and other live animal data.

PREDICTING EMPTY BODY COMPOSITION OF CATTLE FROM CARCASS WEIGHT AND RIB CUT COMPOSITION

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1975
Data collected on 43 steers (25 predominantly Hereford breeding (H) and 18 predominantly Angus breeding (A)) were used to generate equations to predict total body composition of Angus and Hereford steers from measurements obtained at slaughter. Empty body fat (ether extract, EBF), kg was predicted from 9–11 rib cut fat (ether extract, RF), kg and warm

Body composition of young sheep: I. Body composition in merino and Border Leicester × Merino hoggets in relation to and at common empty body weight

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1969
SUMMARYFlocks of 9-month-old Merino and Border Leicester & Merino sheep were sampled over the full range of body weights present within flocks. Six pairs of ewes and wethers of equal body weight were taken. The sheep were weighed and slaughtered after a 36 h fast. Total weights of blood, skin, head, feet, internal organs and carcasses were obtained

Prediction of empty body weight and composition from live weight and other live animal measurements in lactating dairy cows

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 2009
SUMMARYEmpty body (EB) composition data from 146 lactating Holstein–Friesian dairy cows were analysed, with cows selected from a large herd to represent a wide range of animal factors including parity, live weight (LW), body condition score (BCS), milk yield and stage of lactation.
