Efectos del tratamiento con ácido fosfórico y calor sobre el aprovechamiento ruminal e intestinal del guisante de primavera

La protección de proteínas frente a la degradación ruminal mediante el tratamiento sucesivo con soluciones ácidas y calor se ha demostrado como un método eficaz para aumentar el valor proteico de alimentos muy degradables como la harina de girasol (Arroyo y González, 2009). En este trabajo se ha pretendido comprobar la eficacia de este tratamiento en otro alimento altamente degradable como es el guisante de primavera.

Effect of wheat inclusion and xylanase supplementation of the diet on intestinal enzyme activity, nutrient retention and performance in laying hen from 25 to 47 wks of age

A trial was conducted to examine the effects of increasing levels of wheat in the diet and xylanase (ES) supplementation on nitrogen and ether extract retention, pH of the GIT, productive performance from 25 to 47 wks of age, and enzyme activity at the small intestine level. The basal diets (from 25 to 33 wks and from 33 to 47 wks) consisted of soybean meal and corn, and the wheat was introduced in the experimental diets at expenses of corn, primarily.
