What many nutritionists do in LCF, is to create 2 nutrients for calcium. One might simply have the name calcium and would include the total amount of calcium in the ingredients plus the value assigned in the phytase matrix. To this nutrient it would be assigned the min and max restrictions and it would be used to calculate the Ca.avP ratio (which could receive the restrictions instead of calcium). The other nutrient is usually called something like analyzable calcium (or calcium lab) and would...

A house’s fans are essentially the engine of the ventilation system and as a result have a significant effect on a producer’s ability to maintain the proper environmental conditions throughout the year. Furthermore, with rising electricity prices, selecting the right energy-efficient fan can save a producer thousands of...

1. Introduction The laying hen industry in the United States consists of approximately 330–340 million laying hens [1] that must first go through the growing phase known as the pullet phase.

During this time, the pullet reaches sexual maturity and grows to its full skeletal capacity. Early experiences during the pullet phase,...

1. Introduction The Newcastle disease virus (NDV), a member of the Paramyxoviridae family, poses a global threat to poultry and wild birds due to its worldwide distribution and ability to infect various avian species [1]. Infection of birds with highly virulent strains of NDV results in immunosuppression, which at least in part results from profound depletion of lymphoid tissues [2,3]. NDV has also been extensively studied in human tumour cells for its potential role as...
