Feeding standards and feeding systems
Animal Feed Science and Technology, 1993Abstract Feeding standards are commonly understood to be developed in and for feeding systems of temperate countries. The application of these feeding standards is often challenged, particularly for the tropics, but the discussion about their relevance needs clear definitions and statements of objective to be fruitful.

Consequences of feeding for future feeding
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2001The intake of food has physiological consequences via physical (e.g. distension) and chemical (e.g. glucose) stimulation of receptors in the viscera and, in the longer term, by changes in signals from adipose tissue (e.g. leptin), integrated by the CNS.

To feed or not to feed: circuits involved in the control of feeding in insects
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2016To feed or not to feed is a dilemma faced by every animal. The sense of taste is fundamental to the control of food intake. It permits recognition of nutrients, the rejection of toxins, and provides feedback for the coordination of feeding. The suboesophageal zone of the insect brain uses taste information to orchestrate the motor programs responsible ...

Early nutrition can help to improve energy and protein intake and decrease the negative impact of the metabolic response to surgery. A key goal is to identify patients who exhibit increased respiration risk before beginning oral alimentation. Once a simple bedside 3-oz (90 ml) challenge, or early intervention in the oral care, administered by a trained

Although natural food organisms may provide certain micronutrients, the contribution of pond organisms to the nutrition of intensively cultured catfish is considered minuscule. The nutritional requirements of cultured catfish are met by using a feed that is formulated to provide all required nutrients (a complete feed) in the proper proportions ...
