Baking sunflower hulls within an aluminum envelope in a common laboratory oven yields charcoal [PDF]
Charcoals have been widely used by scientist to research the removal of contaminants from water and air. One key feature of charcoal is that it keeps macropores from the parent material – though anisotropically contracted – and can even develop meso- and

Effects of Sunflower Hulls on Productive Performance, Digestibility Indices and Rumen Morphology of Growing Awassi Lambs Fed with Total Mixed Rations [PDF]
Forty-eight growing Awassi lambs were used in a 70-day trial to investigate the effects of different levels of dietary sunflower hulls (SFH) on growth, rumen morphology, fiber digestibility and meat characteristics of lambs.

Effects of Dietary Sunflower Hulls on Performance and Rumen Fermentation of Pregnant Naemi Ewes: A Sustainable Fiber Source for Arid Regions [PDF]
(1) Background: In arid regions, limited forage availability increases feeding costs for small ruminants. Sunflower hulls (SFH), a low-cost agro-industrial by-product, may serve as an alternative fiber source, yet their effects on pregnant Naemi ewes ...

Insoluble fibre and enzyme supplementation in mash or pellets diets on growth performance, apparent ileal digestibility and intestinal morphology of broiler chickens fed barley containing diets [PDF]
Background Enzyme supplementation and the inclusion of fibre in the barley‐based diets have been some of the alternatives proposed to improve productivity in the absence of growth promoters. Objective This study was performed to investigate the effect of

Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Gastrointestinal Tract Traits in Response to Dietary Fiber Sources in Broiler Chickens [PDF]
The effects of dietary insoluble fiber sources on growth performance, gastrointestinal tract (GIT) traits, nutrient digestibility and intestinal enzyme activity were studied in broilers from 1 to 42 d of age. A total of 480 one-day-old chicks (Ross 308),
