In vitro and in sacco determination of neutral detergent fibre digestibility of treated cereal straw
Abstract Background Cereal straw is hardly digestible due to its complex bonds of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. That is why chemical treatments, such as with sodium hydroxide, may help to loosen the bonds and thus increase ruminal digestibility. Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) digestibility is a good predictor of feed intake.

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Abstract BACKGROUND Arabinoxylans (AX), abundant in wheat bran, represent a valuable yet underutilized fraction of cereal milling by‐products. In this study, an AX‐enriched fraction obtained from durum wheat meal (DWM), produced from defatted durum wheat germ and debranning fractions, was incorporated at increasing levels (0–25%) into pea starch ...

White and whole wheat flour breads: composition and simultaneous exposure to group B trichothecenes
Abstract BACKGROUND The study aimed to determine the profile of group B trichothecenes (TCTBs), to estimate the daily exposure to them and to evaluate the relationship with the composition of different types of sliced wheat bread. A method for simultaneous determination of the TCTBs (deoxynivalenol (DON), 3‐acetyl‐deoxynivalenol, 15‐acetyl ...

ABSTRACT The main aim of the study was to assess the toxicity of ash generated in household furnaces through the combustion of materials most commonly burned in individual households. The toxicity tests were conducted using plant bioassays with cress (Lepidium sativum), mustard (Sinapis) and sorghum (Sorghum) seeds.

ABSTRACT Soil nutrient depletion severely constrains crop productivity in degraded and saline environments. Strategies such as biochar–compost integration could be useful for sustainable agriculture and land restoration on a global scale. This study evaluated the effects of biochar (1% Bc), compost (1% Co), and their blends (0.5% Bc + 0.5% Co and 1% Bc
