I.INTRODUCTION Both overheating and underheating affect the nutritional value and quality of SB (Karr-Lilienthal et al., 2004). Undercooked SB results in an excessive concentration of antinutritional factors, such as TI, decreasing the intestinal activity of pancreatic proteases. In contrast, excessive heat treatment results in a Maillard reaction that reduces nutrient digestibility (Araba and Dale, 1990). Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate the contributions of...

Nelson Ruiz (Nelson Ruiz Nutrition LLC)     A set of 24 solvent extracted commercial soybean meal (CSBM) samples, which corresponded to the same lots of CSBM used in the field, were evaluated. The CSBM were from different origins (Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay, Trinidad & Tobago, U.S.). The objective herein was to evaluate the relationship between KOH protein solubility (KOHPS, a measurement of overprocessing) and trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA, a...

The chemical extraction of edible oils with hexane as a solvent is the most widely utilized process in the industry for high production applications, over 500 tons per day. The top three oilseeds by production volume are soybean, rapeseed/canola, and sunflower respectively. Prior to extraction, these oilseeds are subjected to a number of preparation steps aimed at making oil recovery as efficient as possible in the extractor while minimizing operating costs. One...

4.1 Introduction The metabolism of most nutrients in domestic dogs and cats is similar to that in other mammals (Baker and Czarnecki-Maulden 1991). Thus, the qualitative dietary requirements of dogs and cats for most nutrients [e.g., amino acids (AAs) that are not formed de novo in animal cells] are similar to those for omnivores (e.g., humans and pigs). However, dogs and cats have a relatively short digestive tract (He et al. 2024) and have evolved to have some unique feeding...

Rendering involves repurposing animal co-products that would otherwise be discarded. It converts the parts of a meat animal we choose not to eat into stable, usable materials such as fuel, pet food, and livestock feed, creating a highly sustainable alternative. Below, learn more about products made from rendered materials in detail. You can discover...

Short Answer: Rendering is Recycling It’s a process that repurposes co-products(also called by-products) that would otherwise go to waste from the “meat we don’t eat.” By rendering specific materials that many North American consumers would consider inedible, such as certain fats, bones and proteins, renderers provide...

1. Introduction One of the important tasks facing the Russian agro-industrial complex is to increase the digestibility of grain components of feed, increase the content of nutrients in feed. In addition, feed accounts for the largest share in the structure of costs for the production of livestock products. One of the promising directions for the intensification of technological processes is the change in the physical and chemical properties of feed products when exposed to them...

1. Introduction Extrusion has been widely used in feed processing for over 70 years [1]. It can change the physio-chemical properties of feed ingredients by applying constant moisture, pressure, and high temperature with the combination of shear force. Thus, extruded ingredients have greater nutrient utilization and reduced anti-nutritional factors [2]. Full-fat rice bran (FFRB), an important by-product of the rice milling industry, is commonly used as an alternative to...

Abstract Increasing the fat amount of the ration during extrusion can negatively affect product density and product expansion. Ingredients, like whole soybeans (WSB), which are high in fat may increase energy density while avoiding production issues. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of WSB on extrusion and product characteristics of dry expanded dog food. Experimental diets were extruded with 0, 100, 200, and 300 g/kg, as fed WSB. The processing conditions...
