Understanding the water consumption associated with the use of hair care products: The impact of six hair characteristics on rinsing shampoos and conditioners

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Most water during a shower is used to rinse shampoo (average 7.1 L) and conditioner (average 6.3 L). We developed a methodology to test how rinsability varies according to hair characteristics, finding that hair length and volume significantly affect water use, while thickness, curliness, dryness and damage have little impact.

A ring test of in vitro neutral detergent fiber digestibility: analytical variability and sample ranking.

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2012
In vitro neutral detergent fiber (NDF) digestibility (NDFD) is an empirical measurement of fiber fermentability by rumen microbes. Variation is inherent in all assays and may be increased as multiple steps or differing procedures are used to assess an ...

Impact of emerging packaging regulations on international trade and product safety with emphasis on plastic reuse and recycling in Europe and North America

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolving global landscape of packaging regulations, driven by heightened public concern over single‐use packaging and plastic waste, signals a significant shift toward circular economy principles. These regulatory changes, including the United Nations Environmental Programme's endorsement of a legally binding international agreement on ...

Differences in Milk Production Efficiency and Physiology Between Lactating Holstein Cows and Yaks Born and Kept at About 4000 m of Altitude When Fed the Same Diet

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Yaks (Bos grunniens) have developed numerous mechanisms to cope with hypoxic environments. Still, as their milk yield is low, the use of production systems building on dairy breeds at high altitude might increase efficiency, but this has not yet been explored.

Comparative Study on Milk Production, Milk Components, Feed Intake and Efficiency Parameters of Fleckvieh (German Simmental), Brown Swiss and Fleckvieh × Red Holstein Dairy Cows

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to compare milk production, milk components and feed intake of Fleckvieh, Brown Swiss and Fleckvieh × Red Holstein dairy cows kept under identical feeding and management conditions. The study examined efficiency parameters in relation to feed, energy, protein, and metabolic weight of the three breeds.

Branching Out: Rabbit Models Provide Evidence for the Use of a Willow Cultivar (Salix miyabeana) as a Suitable Forage Material for Monogastric Herbivores in Zoos

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We assessed the suitability of a willow cultivar for monogastric herbivores in zoos using a rabbit model. Thirty‐six male New Zealand White × Californian rabbits at 5 weeks of age were provided with bark and leaf material from a willow cultivar, Salix miyabeana (SX61), in one of four treatments for 6 weeks: UC (unrestricted control of pelleted
