A novel diagnostic method was adapted from studies in horses and humans to postmortal research on ostrich bones. The research made it possible to determine referential values in the method of digital analysis of a radiological image for the tibio-tarsal bone of the ostrich, following exposure to injuries. In the case of a computer-generated analysis of a radiological image, the optimal conditions...
The cholesterol content differed (P<0.05) between breast (49.5 mg/100 g) and back (74.3 mg/100 g) fat. Differences (P<0.05) in individual fatty acids were found especially for arachidonic acid (20:4).High contents of 18:2, 18:3 and 20:4 from both depots suggest, that ostrich fat could be a source of essential fatty acids in human and animal diets. The influence of various factors and especially...
The mean lipid and cholesterol contents of m. gastrocnemius were 3.87 g and 75 mg/100 g tissue, respectively. The overall profile of fatty acids of the muscle was found similar to ostrich meat. From dietetic and nutritive point of view fatty acids profile of nandu meat seems more desirable than those of the traditional avian species.
Culled breeding ostriches weighing 130-160 kg yield about 25 kg fat tissue that could possibly be used for supplementing human and animal diet. Cholesterol content of breast fat – 80 mg/100 g tissue – from the breeding ostrich females (n = 6) culled and slaughtered at the age of five years appeared similar to that reported of beef and lamb adipose tissue. In a sum of 17 fatty acids (FA) determined,...
In nandu eggs (n = 9) the mean cholesterol content of yolk was 16.41 mg/g. In a sum of 21 fatty AIDS determined, the considerable share – 33.55% – of polyunsaturated acids was found, and especially of linolenic (C18:3) – 4.95% and arachidonic (C20:4) – 7.59%, both considered essential in human nutrition. It is concluded that nandu eggs are of considerable dietetic value.
On July 4, 2002 at a Polish ostrich farm, Ożarów, a case of ostrich (Struthio camelus) twins developing from a double-yolked egg was reported. On the day of laying the weight of egg was 2221 g, whereas its shape index was 73.7, resembling the chicken egg. On day 43 of incubation the egg was opened.Each embryo was fully formed with complete feathers. Both embryos died in the last stage of incubation,on...
Due to the crossbar organization of typical multiprocessors, their cost grows as the square of the number of processors. The distributed pipeline (DP) is a concept which allows the construction and operation of very large multiprocessors; an example having 300 CPU's is described. The DP is an extension of the more traditional pipeline which has been used to implement highly concurrent computers. The...
