Effects of Beet-Vinasse (Condensed Molasses Soluble) Addition on the Performance, Milk Fatty Acid Profile, Digestibility, Blood Parameters, and Ruminal Fermentation of Early Lactating Holstein Cows. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Vinasse supplementation at 1.5%–3% enhances nutrient digestibility, ruminal fermentation and production efficiency in early‐lactating Holstein cows. However, without rumen microbial or immune response data, long‐term safety and efficacy require further study.

Safety evaluation of an extension of use of the food enzyme α-amylase from the genetically modified <i>Bacillus licheniformis</i> strain NZYM-BC. [PDF]

EFSA J
Abstract The food enzyme α‐amylase (4‐α‐d‐glucan glucanhydrolase; EC 3.2.1.1.) is produced with the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐BC by Novozymes A/S. The safety of this food enzyme was evaluated previously and it did not give rise to safety concerns when used in six food manufacturing processes.

An Economical Bioprocess for Lipopeptide Production From Bacillus subtilis. [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
The lipopeptide (LP) production potential of Bacillus isolates was evaluated against phytopathogenic fungi, with B. subtilis 4‐Ka‐22 identified as the top‐performing strain. Optimization of the production medium—comprising molasses, soybean meal, CaCl2, and glycerol—resulted in a 13.4‐fold increase in cell growth and over 99% cost reduction compared to

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme pectinesterase from the non-genetically modified <i>Aspergillus luchuensis</i> strain CBS 148463. [PDF]

EFSA J
Abstract The food enzyme pectinesterase (pectin pectylhydrolase; EC 3.1.1.11) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus luchuensis strain CBS 148463 by Solyve. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism. The food enzyme is intended to be used in 12 food manufacturing processes.

Effects of Lycium barbarum Residue Substituting Dietary Maize on Fecal Microbiota and Growth Performance of Crossbred Simmental Cattle

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The bioactive substances we extracted from Lycium barbarum residue (LBR) have a typical polysaccharide structure. When 1.80% LBR was used to replace maize in the diet, the average daily gain of rossbred Simmental was significantly increased, and anti‐inflammatory ability was improved. In addition, LBR improved the fecal microbial composition, increased

Differences in Feeding Management of Pet Rabbits by Owners and Hobby Breeders and Their Impact on Animals' Health: A Survey

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the last decades, the population of pet rabbits in Europe has increased significantly, but to date studies into feeding management of these species have been mainly conducted in production animals. This study aimed to evaluate the feeding practices of both pet rabbit owners and hobby breeders in Germany and how these may affect animal ...

Optimizing Carbon Sources in Biofloc Technology for Sustainable Aquaculture: A Meta‐Analytical Review

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture intensification is increasingly constrained by high water demand, nutrient‐rich effluents and disease risk, increasing interest in biofloc technology (BFT) as a waste‐recycling, low‐exchange production model. However, BFT performance depends strongly on the carbon source used to adjust the carbon‐to‐nitrogen (C/N) ratio and ...
