Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.

Residual feed intake, breed of sire and dam, and individual sire affect performance and carcass characteristics and rates of back fat and intramuscular fat of feedlot steers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
One hundred and fifty eight Angus (A), Simmental (S), Angus-Simmental, and Simmental-Angus steers across two years across were classified into high (H), medium (M), and low (L) residual feed intake (RFI) groups. Steers in the H RFI group ate 1 kg more of

Multivariate approach of inter-relationships among growth, consumption and carcass traits in Nellore cattle

open access: yesRevista Ciência Agronômica, 2014
The objective of the present study was to analyze the phenotypic inter-relationships between growth, feed intake and carcass traits in polled Nellore cattle, as well as to determine which bulls produced the most efficient progeny.

Morphology, Transport, and Dynamics of Protein Adsorption in Open‐Cell Metal Foam

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Stainless steel (SS) open‐cell foams are shown to adsorb more protein per unit area than previously reported 316L SS and chromium oxide surfaces under static and flow conditions. An integrated approach combining 3D pore imaging, flow simulation, and protein adsorption experiments characterizes the foam’s performance.

Cattle residual feed intake candidate genes

open access: yes, 2009
One option that can be used to select cattle for improving feed efficiency is to select for genes affecting residual feed intake. Previous studies using two groups of cattle, the Trangie Angus residual feed intake (RFI) selection line cattle and the ...

Selection Lines for Residual Feed Intake in Yorkshire Swine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A line of Yorkshire pigs was selected for 3 generations for reduced residual feed intake (RFI), a measure of feed efficiency defined as feed consumed over and above average requirements for maintenance and growth.

Assessing short-term feed efficiency and its association with biological markers in herbage-fed dairy cows

open access: yesAnimal
Feed efficiency is an important trait of dairy production. However, assessing feed efficiency is constrained by the associated cost and difficulty in measuring individual feed intake, especially on pastures. The objective of this study was to investigate

Identification of a metabolomic signature associated with feed efficiency in beef cattle

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Ruminants play a great role in sustainable livestock since they transform pastures, silage, and crop residues into high-quality human food (i.e. milk and beef).

Wearable Smart Patches on Sustainable Chitosan With Reversible Microbial Growth‐Inhibitory Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitosan, a polysaccharide upcycled from biowaste, has long promised sustainable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial films and devices, an appeal reinforced by its recent regulatory recognition, with several chitosan‐based antibacterial dressings gaining clearance through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) pathway.
