Body Composition, Physical Activity and Energy Requirements Estimated Using Two Isotopic Methods in Old and Adult Beagle Dogs

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Energy requirements (ER) are known to decline as dogs age into the senior stage. However, the implications of body composition and physical activity (PA) on this parameter remain poorly investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate ER, body composition, water turnover rate (WTR), and voluntary PA by triaxial accelerometers in adults (5.2

Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss in Obese Senior Dogs: Effects on Energy Expenditure, Protein Turnover, and Voluntary Physical Activity

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Implications of obesity and weight loss (WL) for energy and protein metabolism are not fully understood, particularly in senior dogs. This study evaluated changes in body composition, energy expenditure (EE), protein turnover (PT), and voluntary physical activity (VPA) in senior dogs in maintenance and after 10% and 20% WL.

Black Soldier Fly Larvae Meal in Extruded Diets for Giant Anteaters (Myrmecophaga tridactyla): Effects on Digestibility and Physiological Responses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nutritional management of giant anteaters (Myrmecophaga tridactyla) under human care remains challenging due to their highly specialised insectivorous diet and the limited knowledge of their nutritional requirements. The development of adequate diets is therefore essential for the success of ex situ conservation programmes.

Conventional and Emerging Protein Ingredients in Farinaceous Products: Amino Acid Quality, Digestibility, Biological Value, and Functional Performance. [PDF]

open access: yesCompr Rev Food Sci Food Saf
ABSTRACT The increasing demand for protein‐enriched foods has renewed interest in farinaceous products as widely consumed and technologically adaptable matrices for nutritional improvement. However, protein enrichment cannot be evaluated solely by increases in crude protein content, as nutritional value depends on essential amino acid (EAA) balance ...

Short‐term changes in photographed dental calculus coverage and pooled supragingival microbiota after baked dental treats containing a pomegranate–propolis blend or sodium hexametaphosphate in dogs

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To compare short‐term changes in the photographed percentage of visible tooth surface covered by pre‐existing dental calculus among dogs receiving additive‐free baked treats, sodium hexametaphosphate‐containing treats or pomegranate–propolis‐containing treats, and to describe pooled supragingival bacterial profiles before and after the ...

Sex Hormones as Regulators of the Age‐ and Sex‐Dependent Benefits of Caloric Restriction: An Emerging Research Protocol of a Controlled Dietary Intervention (The GendAge Weight Loss Study)

open access: yesNutrition Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With nearly two‐thirds of the UK population living with overweight or obesity, there is an urgent necessity for evidence‐based public health guidance to promote a healthy weight. Current weight management advice centres on lifestyle modification. However, existing dieting recommendations fail to consider sex or age.
