Effect of particle size of a mash concentrate on behavior, digestibility, and macroscopic and microscopic integrity of the digestive tract in Holstein bulls fed intensively
(Oxford University Press, 2018-11-01)
Twenty-four individually housed Holstein bulls (456 ± 6.9 kg of body weight and 292 ± 1.4 d of age) were enrolled in a complete randomized experiment involving four dietary treatments to evaluate the ...
Transfer of manure from livestock farms to crop fields as fertilizer using an ant inspired approach
(Copernicus Publications, 2020-08-03)
Intensive livestock production might have a negative environmental impact, by producing large amounts of animal excrements,
which, if not properly managed, can contaminate nearby water bodies with ...
Assessment of listing and categorisation of animal diseases within the framework of the Animal Health Law (Regulation (EU) No 2016/429): antimicrobial-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in dogs and cats
(Wiley Open Access, 2022-02-01)
Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (S. pseudintermedius) was identified among the most relevant antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacteria in the EU for dogs and cats in a previous scientific opinion. Thus, ...
Life Cycle Assessment of Iberian Traditional Pig Production System in Spain
(MDPI, 2020-01-15)
Traditional Iberian pig production is characterized by outdoor systems that produce animals fed with natural resources. The aim of this study was to assess the environmental impacts of such systems ...
The effects of colostrum consumption and feed restriction during marketing and transportation of male dairy beef calves: Impact on pre-transport nutritional status and on farm recovery
(Elsevier, 2023-08-23)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of colostrum consumption and feed restriction on biomarkers of stress, nutritional and health status, gut functionality, and behavior in male dairy beef ...
Use of re-esterified oils, differing in their degree of saturation and molecular structure, in broiler chicken diets
(Elsevier, 2015-07-01)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential use of re-esterified oils, differing in their degree of saturation and molecular structure, in comparison with their corresponding acid and ...
Use of re-esterified palm oils, differing in their acylglycerol structure, in fattening pig diets
(Elsevier, 2015-07-02)
Re-esterified oils are new fat sources obtained from the chemical esterification of acid oils with glycerol (both economically interesting by-products from oil refining and biodiesel industries, ...
Use of combinations of re-esterified oils, differing in their degree of saturation, in broiler chicken diets
(Elsevier, 2015-07-01)
Re-esterified oils contain higher proportions of mono- and diacylglycerols, and also higher proportions of saturated fatty acids (SFA) at the sn-2 position of acylglycerol molecules than does a native ...
Assessment of animal diseases caused by bacteria resistant to antimicrobials: Swine
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-12-24)

Influence of pH and Temperature on Struvite Purity and Recovery from Anaerobic Digestate
(MDPI, 2021-09-27)
The precipitation of struvite (MgNH4PO4.6H2O) from wastewater streams simultaneosuly recovers nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) for reuse as fertilisers. Struvite crystallisation is controlled by pH, ...
