French biotech company, Deinove, says the results of extensive in vivo efficacy and bioavailability trials on its bacteria derived carotenoid compounds in poultry and fish diets will be released next month.
Researchers evaluated the interaction between feed processing and different methodologies for assessing apparent metabolizable energy corrected by nitrogen (AMEn) and standardized ileal digestibility coefficients (SIDC) of amino acids in broiler diets.
The need for broader investigation of the role of amino acids in animal nutrition was the central theme emerging fromt the Amino Acid Academy in Paris last week.
An international team of researchers from Brazil and Canada examined the influence of dietary crude protein (CP) level and animal gender on the recovery of nitrogen (15N) in microbial protein.
Bühler Insect Technology, in tandem with its joint venture partner, Protix, will build an industrial plant to process black solider flies for animal nutrition in the southern part of the Netherlands.
French biotech company, Deinove, says its first patent focusing on the use of the bacteria, Deinococcus, for animal nutrition has been issued in China.
The yeast producer said the purchase of Nova Microbial Technologies is part of its effort to offer more microbial products and focus on services related to improving animal performance and well-being.
Latest research from feed ingredient supplier AB Vista suggests that enzyme performance benefits are not ‘additive’ when combined, challenging the assumption that incorporating more enzymes into poultry feed will mean better digestibility.
A detailed and systematic scientific investigation is needed to explain the success and effectiveness of antioxidants in terms of improved productivity and lower oxidative stress in ruminants, says a leading academic.
Algae biomass-derived pellet binders that could potentially make poultry feed more efficient are one of the early-stage innovations that award-winning poultry researcher Joe Moritz is working on.
Scientists on Alltech’s crop science programme are working to make crops ‘healthier’, by harnessing microbes that can boost their nutritional value and disease resistance.
