Variations of rumen metagenome and metabolome in dairy cows with different feed intake levels during the postpartum period

Animal Nutriomics
Feed intake, a critical factor for dairy cows during the postpartum period, is intricately linked to the rumen microbiome. However, the specific roles of rumen metagenome and metabolome in modulating feed intake in postpartum dairy cows remain unclear ...

Water Adsorption‐Induced Color Sensor: Insight Into the Sensing Mechanism and Interfacial Engineering for Improved Responsiveness

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We report a unique color‐sensing phenomenon of a TiO2/SbSI:Sb2S3 device utilizing X‐ray absorption. Based on the revealed penetration and adsorption of water onto TiO2, we successfully improved the color response speed and sensitivity by incorporating a hydrophilic polymer interlayer, thereby opening up opportunities for photodetection applications ...

Initial Impact of Different Feeding Methods on Feed Intake Time in Stabled Icelandic Horses

Animals
The natural behaviour of horses is to spend the majority of their time on feed intake The feeding of stabled horses is, however, often far from that, as their feed intake is limited to their nutritional requirements.

Multi-omics profiling of hepatic macromolecules in laying hens with difference feed intake: Mechanistic insights into antioxidant capacity modulation

Poultry Science
Currently, the cost of poultry feed accounts for more than 70 % of the total cost of poultry production. Therefore, it is crucial to find appropriate strategies to reduce feed cost and improve feed efficiency in livestock genetic improvement programs ...

Fusogenic RNA Nanomodules for Fusion‐Mediated and Multiplexed siRNA Delivery

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A fusogenic lipid‐layered RNA nanomodules (L‐CRAMs) enable high‐capacity and long‐lasting siRNA delivery through membrane fusion. These nanomodules carry exceptionally large siRNA payloads, avoid conventional endosomal uptake, and release multiple functional siRNAs through Dicer‐mediated processing.

Feed habituation alleviates decreased feed intake after feed replacement in broilers

Poultry Science, 2018
In the present study, 2 experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of replacing a mash diet with a pellet diet on the expression of genes related to appetite in the hypothalamus and gastrointestinal tract (GT) and to evaluate the attenuating effect of feed habituation on the disadvantage influence on feed consumption.

A Novel Modified Petroresin Particle (MPRP) With Enhanced Oil–Water Selectivity for Cold Production in Heavy Oil Reservoirs

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel oil–water selective conformance control agent, MPRP, is prepared via hydrophilic grafting and mechanical granulation. MPRP uniformly disperses in water, cohesively expands upon aging, and readily dissolves in the oil phase. During conformance control, it selectively aggregates in water channeling pathways to form effective plugs without ...
