Effects of dietary fat levels and fat sources on growth and trace mineral deposition in young male rats [PDF]

, 1987
This study investigated the effects of dietary fat levels and fat sources on growth and trace mineral deposition in young male rats at four weeks. Dietary factors included four levels of fat (2.5, 5, 10, and 20%) and three fat sources for each of two ...

Effects of medium-chain fatty acids on growth performance, microbial attributes, and fat deposition in broiler chicken [PDF]

Poultry are monogastric animals that share a fat tissue structure that is strikingly comparable to the fat in animal feed. This indicates that the kind and source of fat in animal diets can significantly impact the accumulation and composition of fatty ...

Host–Microbiota Interactions in the Pathogenesis of Porcine Fetal Mummification

Microorganisms
The number of mummies (MUM) in pigs is a major factor affecting sow reproductive performance. Reducing the incidence of MUM can effectively improve sow utilization efficiency.

Turning Unpredictable Biomolecule Adsorption to Controlled Corona Formation: Focus on Carbon Nanomaterials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Controlling the protein corona formation onto carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) enhances their functionalities as platforms for cancer theranostics. Here, we reviewed the effects of the intrinsic and acquired properties of CNMs on protein corona formation, the consequent biological and toxicological outcomes, and the strategies to reshape corona formation ...

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.

Image_1_Effect of host genetics and gut microbiome on fat deposition traits in pigs.TIF

, 2022
Fat deposition affects meat quality, flavor, and production in pigs. Fat deposition is influenced by both genetics and environment. Symbiotic microbe with the host is an important environmental factor to influence fat deposition.
