Animal Agriculture
Availability of amino acids include digestibility, chemical integrity (i.e., absorbed in an utilizable form) and freedom from interference in metabolism (i.e., presence of specific dietary anti-nutritional factor limiting protein synthesis)….
Dry expanded kibbles with ingredients that bring extra nutrition and health benefits are much better received than those which are simply an economic choice by manufacturers. Microbially enhanced protein (MEP)…
…needed to fully understand biological activity of these compounds in the live animal, soy-derived bioactive compounds show great potential as a health promoting feed additive for the modern swine industry….
