Use of visible-near infrared spectroscopy to predict nutrient composition of poultry excreta
(Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2021-11-25)Nowadays optimal feed formulation for poultry is sought for available content, which takes into account how the nutrients are digested and metabolized by the animal. The digestibility coefficients of ... -
Use of wood and cork in biofilters for the simultaneous removal of nitrates and pesticides from groundwater
(Chemosphere, 2022-12-07)About 13% and 7% of monitored groundwater stations in Europe exceed the permitted levels of nitrates (50 mg NO3− L−1) or pesticides (0.1 μg L−1), respectively. Although slow sand filtration can remove ... -
Usefulness of Eurasian Magpies (Pica pica) for West Nile virus Surveillance in Non-Endemic and Endemic Situations
(Viruses, 2019-08-05)In September 2017, passive surveillance allowed the detection of West Nile virus (WNV) lineage 2 for the first time in northern Spain in a northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis). However, a cross ... -
Using 19% of alfalfa hay in beef feedlot finishing diets did not modify meat quality but increased feed intake and ADG
(Journal of Animal Science, 2019-02-06)To evaluate the effects of including extra alfalfa hay in high concentrate diets fed to beef heifers on intake, average daily gain (ADG), gain to feed ratio (G:F), and carcass and meat quality, we used ... -
Using commercial ELISAs to assess humoral response in sows repeatedly vaccinated with modified live porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus
(Veterinary Record, 2019-10-01)Background Sows in breeding herds are often mass vaccinated against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) every few months using modified live vaccines (MLV). Field veterinarians repeatedly ... -
Using compositional mixed-effects models to evaluate responses to amino acid supplementation in milk replacers for calves
(Journal of Dairy Science, 2021-04-15)The consequences of supplementing Lys, Met, and Thr in milk replacers (MR) for calves have been widely studied, but scarce information exists about potential roles of other AA (whether essential or not). ... -
Using flower strips to promote green lacewings to control cabbage insect pests
(Journal of Pest Science, 2021-08-23)Habitat management improves biological control by increasing the abundance and fitness of natural enemies through the provision of floral resources along field edges or between crops. Among the natural ... -
Using fluorescence excitation-emission matrices to predict bitterness and pungency of virgin olive oil: A feasibility study
