Residual Feed Intake as a Behavioral, Nutritional and Economic Criterion in Poultry Production

open access: yesAnimals
Rising feed costs in the poultry industry have the greatest impact on the price of the final product. To address this issue, several indicators have been developed to assess feed efficiency.

Genetic aspects of feed intake in lactating sows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Productivity of sows has increased worldwide, especially during the last decade. Sows have been changed genetically to produce larger litters. It was hypothesized that including feed intake or feed efficiency during lactation or both in the breeding ...

Region‐Specific Profiling of the Gut Microbiome and Metabolite Landscape in Response to Dietary Intervention Using Electronics‐Free Ingestible Smart Sampling Capsules

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Region‐specific profiling of the gut microbiome is achieved non‐invasively using electronics‐free ingestible sampling capsules that activate at defined intestinal sites through stimuli‐responsive coatings. Deployed in a porcine dietary intervention model, the capsules resolve spatially distinct, fiber‐driven shifts in microbial composition and short ...

Feed Consumption and Cost of Feeding of Bronze Turkey Breeding Stock

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1936
Abstract THERE appear to be available only a few experimental data relating to feed consumption and the cost of feeding adult turkeys; and these data, for the most part, are based on small numbers of birds. Albright and Thompson (1932) state that 26 breeding turkeys (24 hens and two toms) consumed an average of 6.87 pounds of mash, 7.18 pounds of ...

Customizable Piezo‐Transmittance‐Based Multiaxial Force Sensor With Deep‐Learning‐Assisted Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Development of a soft tri‐axis piezo‐transmittance sensor with integrated LEDs and photodiodes enables multidirectional force sensing through deformation‐induced optical modulation. A tailored 1D convolutional neural network provides real‐time force direction and intensity prediction, achieving 99.6% classification accuracy and a mean squared error of ...

Spatial Stiffness Programming in Single‐Filament Material Extrusion Through Data‐Driven Thermal Foaming

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Single‐filament material extrusion enables spatial stiffness programming through locally controlled thermal foaming of TPU. A data‐driven G‐code framework tunes porosity from 15.7% to 40.7% and hardness from 90 to 63 Shore A within and across layers. Monolithic hands and soft actuators consequently achieve distinct programmed motions without material ...
