Using bioalcohols as a renewable energy source to substitute a part of fossil energy traffic and increasing the sustainability of individual transportation are important objectives in several countries. The global share of Bioethanol used for transportation is continuously increasing. Ethanol is a biomass-based renewable fuel that can be produced by alcoholic fermentation of sugar beet, sugar can,...
The effects of genetically modified (GM) soybean meal (SBM) and maize on the diversity and activity of microbiota inhabiting terminal gut segments in broiler chickens Were studied. Eight diets were prepared, based on conventional or GM SBM combined with maize cvs Clarica or PR39 F58, or their isogenic MON 810 counterparts cvs Bacilla or PR39 F56. Diets were fed from age 1 to 28 days to 144 Ross broilers,...
The effects of genetically modified (GM) soyabean meal (SBM) and GM maize on the functional status of the small intestine of broiler chickens was studied. Eight diets were prepared, based on conventional or GM SBM (GTS 40-3-2) combined with non-modified maize cvs. Clarica and PR39 F58 or their isogenic GM (MON 810) counterparts cvs. Bacilla or PR39 F56. Diets were fed in mash form from days 1 to 30...
The effects of genetically modified (GM) soyabean meal (SBM) and GM maize (MON 810) on the performance and immunological response of broiler chickens were studied. Eight diets were prepared based on conventional or GM SBM (GTS 40-3-2) combined with non-modified maize cvs. Clarica or PR39 F58 or their isogenic GM counterparts, cvs. Bacilla or PR39 F56. Diets were fed in mash form from day one of age...
Total 208 day-old female broilers were fed on isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets containing seeds of sweet narrow-leafed (L. angustifolius cv. Bojar – NL) or sweet yellow (L. luteus cv. Parys – YL) lupin at the level of 0 (control, C), 10% (days 1–14), and 15% or 25% (days 15–35 of life). The diets were fed unsupplemented or supplemented with mannanase. At the end of second week of life, the birds...
Raw or extruded peas (Pisum sativum, pink-flowered cv. Milwa) were used. Extrusion reduced the trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA) from 2.35 to 0.35 mg · g–1, but did not affect tannins content, which was about 1 g · kg–1. A growth trial was conducted on 200 Ross 308 female broilers from day 1 to 35 of age. There were 3 treatment groups from day 1 to 14 including control without peas, 10% raw (RP) and...
Three experiments on 242 Ross 308 broiler females were conducted to evaluate the nutritive value of expeller cakes cold-pressed from 3 yellow-seeded lines (YRC 041, 036, and 022) and black-seeded winter rape (BRC), and the effects of phytase supplementation. The total P content and phytase activity were similar in YRC and BRC and averaged 9.5 g/kg and 411 U/kg, respectively. Total glucosinolate contents...
Lectin extracts were isolated from pea (PSA) and soyabean (SBA) seeds. In agglutination tests with human erythrocytes, SBA lectins showed higher activity than PSA lectins. The highest haemagglutination activity was observed with blood type AB, 50% lower activity with types A and 0, and the lowest, with type B. The experiment was performed on 30 male Wistar rats fed ad libitum a control diet or the...
