Synergistic Benefits of Butyric Acid and Resistant Potato Starch on Growth and Gut Health in Weaned Pigs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Newly‐weaned piglets face challenges such as reduced feed intake, impaired gut function, and susceptibility to post‐weaning diarrhoea, increasing the need for dietary strategies that support gut health and growth. This study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with butyric acid (BA), resistant potato starch (PS), and their ...

Tolerance to Phosphorus Deficiency Improves Seed Phytic Acid‐to‐Iron Molar Ratios in Common Bean

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although significant advances have been achieved in the biofortification of common beans to overcome deficiencies in Zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), the mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We thus explored the relationships between phosphorus nutrition and Zn and Fe accumulation in four bean genotypes (Edar, Nizok, Colorado and Chimbolos ...

Effect of supplementation with Escherichia coli phytase for broilers on performance, nutrient digestibility, minerals in the tibia and diet cost

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2019
Although phytase has been researched, new enzymes have been produced, leading to different animal responses. In this scenario, the present study proposes to evaluate the inclusion of a bacterial phytase produced by Escherichia coli in broiler diets based

Performance and Health Status of Juvenile Largemouth Bass (Micropterus nigricans) Fed Inclusions of Enzyme‐Treated and Low‐Oligosaccharide Soy Proteins

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant‐based proteins, such as soybean meal (SBM), have shown promising results in cultured species but also present challenges due to their nutrient composition and inherent antinutritional factors. This study investigated how the replacement of solvent‐extracted SBM with low oligosaccharide soybean meal (LSBM) or enzyme‐treated soybean meal ...

Probiotic fermentation of soybeans and use of fermented soy in cookies

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 5, Page 3130-3140, 30 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND With increasing prevalence of mental health issues such as insomnia and anxiety, γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) has gained attention for its neurological benefits. The development of GABA‐rich functional foods has emerged as a promising research direction. Soybeans, rich in glutamate, are excellent substrates for GABA biosynthesis using

Limestone particle size, calcium and phosphorus levels, and phytase effects on live performance and nutrients digestibility of broilers

Poultry Science, 2020
Limestone particle size (PS) affects its solubility and thus can influence broiler performance by altering the rate of calcium (Ca) release into the gastrointestinal tract.

Cyanobacteria as multifunctional bioinputs for sustainable intensification, soil health enhancement, and climate resilience in rice‐based cropping systems

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Ensuring food security goals through the provision of sustainable energy and food without compromising environmental sustainability is the current requirement amid threats from climate change, uncontrolled global population, and scarcity of natural resources.

Effect of Blending Ratio and Fermentation Time on the Quality and Acceptability of Injera Produced from a Composite of Teff, Maize, and Potato Flours

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study evaluates the effects of blending teff with maize and potato flours and varying fermentation time on injera quality. The optimal formulation (70% teff, 15% maize, 15% potato) with 72 h fermentation improved nutritional value, fiber content, and sensory and microbial quality, providing a cost‐effective alternative to 100% teff injera ...

Rhizosphere microbial detoxification and phosphorus solubilization drive ecological remediation of Pb–Zn contaminated soils

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 639-653, March 2026.
Heavy metal contamination of soils poses a serious threat to ecosystem health and food security worldwide. This study investigated how native plants, such as Artemisia annua and Buddleja davidii, interact with soil microbes in Pb–Zn waste slag areas. We found that these plants stimulate microbes, which improve phosphorus availability and reduce metal ...

Properties of Chick Intestinal Phytase

Poultry Science, 1972
Abstract Optimum conditions for the assay of chick intestinal phytase were studied on native and commercial “technical” and “purified” preparations. Activity was near maximum when the substrate concentration was about 0.25 mM sodium phytate (1.5 mM phytate P) in the presence of 1.0 mM MgCl2 and pH about 7.2.
