Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animals are biological transformers of dietary matter and energy to produce high-quality foods and wools for human consumption and use. Mammals, birds, fish, and shrimp require nutrients to survive, grow, develop, and reproduce. As an interesting, dynamic, and challenging discipline in biological sciences, animal nutrition spans an immense range from chemistry, biochemistry, anatomy and physiology to reproduction, immunology, pathology, and cell biology. Thus, nutrition is a foundational subject in livestock, poultry and fish production, as well as the rearing and health of companion animals. This book entitled Principles of Animal Nutrition consists of 13 chapters. Recent advances in biochemistry, physiology and anatomy provide the foundation to understand how nutrients are utilized by ruminants and non-ruminants. The text begins with an overview of the physiological and biochemical bases of animal nutrition, followed by a detailed description of chemical properties of carbohydrates, lipids, protein, and amino acids. It advances to the coverage of the digestion, absorption, transport, and metabolism of macronutrients, energy, vitamins, and minerals in animals. To integrate the basic knowledge of nutrition with practical animal feeding, the book continues with discussion on nutritional requirements of animals for maintenance and production, as well as the regulation of food intake by animals. Finally, the book closes with feed additives, including those used to enhance animal growth and survival, improve feed efficiency for protein production, and replace feed antibiotics. While the classical and modern concepts of animal nutrition are emphasized throughout the book, every effort has been made to include the most recent progress in this ever-expanding field, so that readers in various biological disciplines can integrate biochemistry and physiology with nutrition, health, and disease in mammals, birds, and other animal species (e.g., fish and shrimp). All chapters clearly provide the essential literature related to the principles of animal nutrition, which should be useful for academic researchers, practitioners, beginners, and government policy makers. This book is an excellent reference for professionals and a comprehensive textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in animal science, biochemistry, biomedicine, biology, food science, nutrition, veterinary medicine, and related fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Feeding Farm Animals This volume is an outgrowth from a class manual written several years ago by the author for the use of elementary students at the University of Illinois in a general course in stock-feeding. Inasmuch as there has been some little demand for the class manual from outside sources, the author has rewritten the original manuscript and added a number of valuable illustrations and tables. An effort has been made to present the scientific facts underlying the art of feeding animals in such a manner that the book will not only be suitable for use as a text for college courses in general feeding, but will also be valuable to the farmer who has not had a technical education in agriculture. Thus it has been deemed wise to omit many minor details and a large part of the mass of experimental data from which the general conclusions are deduced. In the first six chapters the author has discussed the scientific aspects of the subject and has attempted to present them in a simple, concise manner so that they may be easily understood, not only by the student but also by the feeder who desires to familiarize himself with the scientific principles underlying the art of stock-feeding. A large number of drawings and photographs illustrating points in the discussion should be of great value in this connection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Principles of Feeding Farm Animals: A Practical Treatise on the Feeding of Farm Animals; Discussing the Fundamental Principles and Reviewing the Best Practices of Feeding for Largest Returns The fundamental principles of feeding animals are applicable to all parts of the country and to all parts of the world. For many years investigators have been at work on problems of nutrition and on interpreting the data obtained. As a result the student farmer has now at hand useful suggestions that will assist in handling the feeding problems of the farm to the best advantage. The man who feeds in a scientific manner is able not only to use his feeding stuffs more economically but he can obtain animal products more cheaply than can his neighbor who ignores the helps that science offers him. To these facts the author himself can testify. He not only has been a teacher of animal nutrition for many years, but has had a life-time experience also with the practical problems of feeding in feed-lots and stables. The volume herewith presented discusses the first principles of scientific feeding and aims to interpret them so as to be equally useful to student, stockman and farmer. In this presentation, the needs of the teacher of animal feeding have also been kept in mind at every step, the object being to set forth the several phases in pedagogical as well as utilitarian form.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disturbances in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract caused by internal and external influences can cause large economic losses in both the pig and poultry industries. Traditionally, diseases and conditions of the GI tract that can cause losses have been controlled by antimicrobial compounds administered in the feed and (or) water, such as antibiotics, coccidiostats, zootechnical feed additives and trace elements such as zinc and copper. However, legislation and rulings in various parts of the world coupled with a growing sentiment to reduce the use of these compounds in the intensive livestock industries have caused a reassessment of measures to influence GI tract structure and function ('gut health'), and have caused unparalleled interest in alternative strategies (genetic, dietary, management, environmental) to effectively manage the GI tract under conditions of external and internal challenge. Despite the wide array of products and strategies available to the pig and poultry industries that influence 'gut health', a term in itself that is often misunderstood and misinterpreted, it is important that the industries continue to investigate and understand the underpinning sciences that influence GI tract structure and function, especially at critical life stages. Ultimately, the cost-benefit of adopting such practices to influence 'gut health' requires consideration.

Download or read book Sustainable Protein Sources written by Sudarshan Nadathur and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-10-02 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protein plays a critical role in human nutrition. Although animal-derived proteins constitute the majority of the protein we consume, plant-derived proteins can satisfy the same requirement with less environmental impact. Sustainable Protein Sources allows readers to understand how alternative proteins such as plant, fungal, algal, and insect protein can take the place of more costly and less efficient animal-based sources. Sustainable Protein Sources presents the various benefits of plant and alternative protein consumption, including those that benefit the environment, population, and consumer trends. The book presents chapter-by-chapter coverage of protein from various sources, including cereals and legumes, oilseeds, pseudocereals, fungi, algae, and insects. It assesses the nutrition, uses, functions, benefits, and challenges of each of these proteins. The book also explores opportunities to improve utilization and addresses everything from ways in which to increase consumer acceptability, to methods of improving the taste of products containing these proteins, to the ways in which policies can affect the use of plant-derived proteins. In addition, the book delves into food security and political issues which affect the type of crops that are cultivated and the sources of food proteins. The book concludes with required consumer choices such as dietary changes and future research ideas that necessitate vigorous debate for a sustainable planet. - Introduces the need to shift current animal-derived protein sources to those that are more plant-based - Presents a valuable compendium on plant and alternate protein sources covering land, water, and energy uses for each type of protein source - Discusses nutritive values of each protein source and compares each alternate protein to more complete proteins - Provides an overview of production, including processing, protein isolation, use cases, and functionality - Presents solutions to challenges, along with taste modulation - Focuses on non-animal derived proteins - Identifies paths and choices that require consumer and policymaker debate and action
