Methodical considerations when estimating nutrient digestibility in horses using the mobile bag technique

Animal, 2021
Total collection of faeces is considered the golden standard for estimating apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) in horses. However, the evaluation of individual feedstuffs is limited and determination of nutrient digestibility in different segments

Effect of dietary grape pomace on fats digestibility in horses [PDF]

Acta Fytotechnica et Zootechnica, 2020
The present study aimed to analyse dried grape pomace as a possible source of crude fat and polyunsaturated fatty acids in equine nutrition, as well as its effect on apparent digestibility of crude fat and selected fatty acids.

Effect of exercise on apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients and faecal recovery of ADL and TiO2 in ponies

Animal, 2018
Exercise and physical training are known to affect gastrointestinal function and digestibility in horses and can lead to inaccurate estimates of nutrient and energy digestibility when markers are used.

Evaluation of methodological aspects of digestibility measurements in ponies fed different haylage to concentrate ratios

Animal, 2017
Methodological aspects of digestibility measurements were studied in four Welsh pony geldings consuming haylage-based diets with increasing proportions of a pelleted concentrate according to a 4×4 Latin square design experiment.

Evaluation of titanium dioxide and chromic oxide as digestibility markers in ponies fed alfalfa hay in relation to marker dosing frequency

Animal, 2019
In equines, Cr2O3 is widely accepted as an indigestible marker, but there are health concerns regarding the carcinogenic properties of Cr2O3. Recently, TiO2 has been suggested to be an alternative digestibility marker in equines.

Non-invasive sampling in Itatiaia National Park, Brazil: wild mammal parasite detection

BMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background Non-invasive sampling through faecal collection is one of the most cost-effective alternatives for monitoring of free-living wild mammals, as it provides information on animal taxonomy as well as the dynamics of the gastrointestinal parasites ...

Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis reduce faecal protein catabolites concentration and odour in dogs

BMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background Direct-fed microbials (DFM), such as Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis, may improve gut functionality of the host by favouring non-pathogenic bacteria and reducing the formation of putrefactive compounds.

Evaluation of rice gluten meal as a potential alternate feed source for poultry

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2022
A biological experiment was conducted in a factorial design (3×2×2) involving two substitution levels (20 and 40%) of basal diet with rice gluten meal (RGM) with and without enzymes (protease and multi-enzyme) in cockerels following practical diet ...
