Dietary supplemental xylooligosaccharide modulates nutrient digestibility, intestinal morphology, and gut microbiota in laying hens

Animal Nutrition, 2021
This study was conducted to evaluate the prebiotic effects of dietary xylooligosaccharide (XOS) supplementation on performance, nutrient digestibility, intestinal morphology, and gut microbiota in laying hens.

Comparative Evaluation of Nutrient Digestibility in Beagle Dogs of Different Life Stages [PDF]

Animals
This study evaluated age-related changes in nutrient digestibility in dogs and examined the effects of physiological development and dietary composition on digestive efficiency. Twenty Beagle dogs were assigned to three groups: puppies (

Dietary Fiber Level Improve Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Immune and Intestinal Morphology of Broilers from Day 22 to 42

Animals, 2023
Simple Summary Dietary fiber is considered to be a nutrient concentration diluent and an antinutritional factor affecting poultry performance. As a consequence, commercial diets generally contain 2–3% crude fiber.

Nutrient digestibility in black soldier fly larva was greater than in adults for pigs and could be estimated using fiber

Journal of Animal Science and Technology, 2023
The objectives of the present study were to determine the nutrient digestibility of fish meal, defatted black soldier fly larvae (BSFL), and adult flies and to develop equations for estimating in vitro nutrient digestibility of BSFL for pigs.

Nutrient Recovery from Digestate: Pilot Test Experiments

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
A series of technologies have been employed in pilot-scale to process digestate, i.e. the byproduct remaining after the anaerobic digestion of agricultural and other wastes, with the aim of recovering nutrients and reducing the load of solids and organics from it, hence improving the quality of digestate for potential subsequent reuse. In this case the

Nutrient digestibility and balance studies

Methods in cattle physiology and behaviour – Recommendations from the SmartCow consortium., 2020
The nutritional value of a feed for cattle depends on its nutrient and energy contents, the extent of rumen fermentation and degradation, and the post-ruminal digestibility. Efficiency of digestion depends on different factors, for example, the apparent digestibility (estimated by subtracting the nutrients contained in faeces from the nutrients ...

Alternative Feed Raw Materials Modulate Intestinal Microbiota and Its Relationship with Digestibility in Yellowtail Kingfish Seriola lalandi

Fishes, 2020
Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in nutrient digestibility and fish health. This study aimed to investigate the effects of alternative feed raw materials on the bacterial communities in the distal intestine and its relationship with nutrient ...
