Book Description
This book brings together the latest research on protein absorption by ruminants and takes a look at the calculation of optimum nutrient requirements, including bacterial digestion, in the calculations. It also describes the parameters of nitrogen conversion in the ruminant and examines the different kinds of protein found in animal feedstuffs. "Animal Feed Science and Technology" calls it "essential for all scientists and teachers actively working in ruminant nutrition research and instruction."

Energy and Protein Metabolism and Nutrition

Publisher: Brill Wageningen Academic
ISBN: 9789086863402
Category : Animal nutrition
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Variations in feeding frequency may lead to difference in utilization of dietary nutrients. The effects of feeding frequency have been tested in growing pigs and finishing pigs using respiratory quotient and postprandial kinetics of plasma metabolites. A reduced feeding frequency resulted in an increased lipogenesis and proteolysis shortly after the meal both in growing and finishing pigs. Nevertheless, growing and finishing pigs exhibit different metabolic pathways when feeding frequency is reduced.

Metabolic Modifiers
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies
ISBN: 0309049970
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
In the past decade, animal scientists have learned that administering recombinantly derived somatotropin (growth hormone) to cows improves milk production and that giving beta-adrenergic agonists to meat animals improves productivity and leanness. In order for these metabolic modifiers to yield benefits, however, sound management of the animals' nutrition is necessary. This volume reports on how these substances work in the animals' metabolism, what effects they might have on nutrient requirements of domestic livestock, and what information should be developed further by investigators. The book explores the current understanding of the biology, structure, mechanisms of action, and treatment effects of somatotropin, beta-adrenergic agonists, and anabolic steroids. A companion volume to the Nutrient Requirements of Domestic Animals series, this authoritative volume will be required reading for animal scientists, researchers, veterinarians, livestock farmers, and faculty and students in university animal veterinary science programs.

Principles of Protein Nutrition of Ruminants
Author: J. Malcolm Asplund
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780849349102
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Principles of Protein Nutrition of Ruminants is a cutting-edge examination of the current state of knowledge in this important field. It explores current techniques and concepts, pointing out limitations to these techniques and introducing ideas and criticisms that will be useful in developing new paradigms for research. The scope of the book covers the whole spectrum of investigation from grazing behavior of wild ruminants to cellular and molecular phenomena. Unique aspects of the book include its emphasis on the energy status of the animal as the primary factor in affecting amino acid supply and its discussion of the nature of nitrogenous compounds in feedstuffs.

Protein Nutrition in Ruminants
Author: E. R. Ørskov
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Ruminant animals are the most important source of meat and milk consumed by humans. In addition, they do not need to compete with humans for food but can thrive on feed unsuitable for monogastric animals. The particular nature of ruminant digestion and the special role played by the rumen micro-organisms involves an extra dimension of complexity compared with other mammals. Feeding ruminants is, at least in part, the process of feeding the complex community of microorganisms of all types that inhabit the rumen. The interplay between the members of this community and their host is not only of great intrinsic interest, but of vital importance if the world's ruminants are to be fed and managed to give the best results. Particular progress has been made in the last decade in the understanding of rumen fungi and their role in digestion. New methods of measuring amino acid requirements have also been developed and led to some interesting observations in this respect. Improved studies of urea recycling and the measurement of purine excretion have enabled better estimates of rumen microbial protein production, as well as progress in how to manipulate fat stores in ruminants via protein supply. In the Second Edition of his book, Dr. Orskov brings this subject up to date, providing both a comprehensive reference and an invaluable primer for advanced students and research scientists in animal nutrition and husbandry. Particular attention has been paid to management systems able to put this new knowledge to work in practical situations.

Protein Metabolism in Farm Animals
Author: Hans-Dietrich Bock
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
Farm animals are grown mainly to provide high quality proteins for human use, in the form of meat, milk, eggs, skin and wool. These products are usually formed from lower-quality proteins in complex processes that involve losses through digestion, absorption, and transport. Because proteins are the most expensive major component of the animal diet per unit of weight, the efficiency with which they are used is of great importance biologically and economically. This book begins with a description of the dietary proteins and methods for their measurement. This is followed by detailed accounts of their digestion in ruminants, pigs, poultry and fish. The physiological basis of adsorption of amino acids is discussed in detail. This is followed by reviews of the processes of protein synthesis and degradation and the hormonal and energetic regulation of these processes. Written by a group of experienced scientists, this is the first book in which all of these topics are discussed in detail at a fundamental level. For advanced students and research workers in animal science and agriculture.
