Abstract:

Post-weaning is the most crucial period in pig management. Associated with weaning are marked changes to the histology and biochemistry of the gut which cause decreased digestive and absorptive capacity and contribute to post-weaning diarrhoea. In last years, the interest in developing management and feeding strategies to stimulate gut development and health in newly-weaned pigs was increasing. In order to increase general health in post-weaning piglets and be alternative to in-feeding antibiotic, three trials were created in this thesis to determine the utilizations of some functional foods

Abstract:

Breastfeeding involves phases of initiation, continuation, and weaning. Research to date has focused upon its initiation and continuation rather than the later phases, when the child is weaned from the breast. Selective aspects relating to weaning have been explored to determine infant feeding practices such as the timing of food introduction. However, that research has focused upon developing countries where the impact of infant feeding patterns and weaning practices have a significant impact on infant growth and child health. The weaning process or final phase of breastfeeding from the mothe

Most infants had an average of 1.0-2.9 feeds per night. Infants using a pacifier had fewer feeds and a shorter total suckling duration per 24 h

Abstract:

Sweet potato varieties, Tanzania (Tz), Nasport (Nsp) and Spk004 (Spk), identified as potential raw material for baby food formulation, were characterised for proximate composition, mineral content and physicochemical characteristics. The interaction of sweet potato flour and proteins (soya and fish) were investigated. Starch was the most abundant nutrient in sweet potato (58 to 79 g/100g flour dry weight). Resistant starch ranged between 17 and 29%; these values were lower in sun-dried samples compared with freeze-dried ones and were reduced significantly on boiling. The in vitro starch digest

Abstract:

Introduction: Gut microbial composition has been associated with immune-mediated diseases. Breastfeeding yields a microbiota rich in bifidobacteria and promotes colonization by lactobacilli. Bifidobacteria and lactobacilli are considered health-promoting and are used as probiotics, i.e. live microbial food supplements which when ingested in adequate amounts confer a beneficial effect on the host. During weaning the developing gut immune system is exposed to an increasing variety of antigens from both foods and gut microbiota. Aims: We aimed to determine if daily feeding of 1x108 colony-forming

Abstract:

The demand for livestock products is expected to increase as much as 50 percent by 2050. This increase in the consumption will demand enormous resources. Animal feed is the most challenging, because of the limited availability of natural resources, climatic changes and food-feed-fuel competition. The costs of conventional feed resources, such soymeal, fishmeal and standard cereals like corn, are very high and moreover their availability in the future will be limited. For this reason, scientific research is focusing on the study of alternative sources (e.g., by/co-products from cereals process

Abstract:

Winter flounder, Pleuronectes americanus, is being developed for aquaculture in Atlantic Canada. Since larval culture has been successful, research can now address problems at the juvenile stage such as weaning, diet and optimal growth environment. Weaning, a critical stage in culture of any flatfish species, is the switch from live food to an artificial diet. In a three month study, I was able to wean wild young-of-the year winter flounder from live, cultured Artemia onto dry food. Specific growth rates and food conversion indicated the artificial diet was a better food source than Artemia. I

La produzione animale riveste un ruolo chiave nel garantire la sicurezza alimentare. Tale ruolo viene esercitato soprattutto grazie all’approvvigionamento di prodotti di origine animale e prodotti dell’agricoltura. Tuttavia, a causa delle diminuite disponibilità di terreni destinati all’allevamento ed alla agricoltura, insieme ai cambiamenti climatici e alla riduzione delle risorse idriche, diventa sempre più importante aumentare la sostenibilità e l’efficienza del settore agroalimentare.

Abstract:

Lawsonia intracellularis and the disease it causes in horses, equine proliferative enteropathy (EPE), is an emerging pathogen of increasing importance to the horse industry from both an economic and welfare standpoint. Long recognized as an economically important disease of swine, the hallmark of EPE is a protein-losing enteropathy, where affected horses suffer weight loss and some ultimately succumb to the disease despite aggressive treatment. There are currently no known EPE preventative measures and the epidemiology of the disease remains poorly defined. While EPE is a sporadic disease affe

Abstract:

The incidences of diarrhoeal episodes in infants and children have mostly been associated with the consumption of contaminated weaning foods. This is especially true in developing countries where factors such as the lack of sanitation systems and electricity have been found to contribute to an increase in the incidence of microbiologically contaminated weaning foods. The process of fermentation has been found to reduce the amount of microbiological contamination in such foods as a result of the production of antimicrobial compounds such as organic acids, peroxides, carbon dioxide and bacterioc

Abstract:

First year of life infants start defining their food preferences and eating behaviors, which will track into adulthood influencing dietary habits later in life. Eating behaviors evolve and change from an exclusive milk diet through a complementary feeding until familiar diet. Weaning starts between 4 and 6 months and it’s the period when caregivers start introducing solid foods. There are several and complex factors influencing initial responses to the introduction of new foods. As some flavors may pass through amniotic liquid and breast milk it was hypothesized that mothers’ diet could

Abstract:

Evidence-based studies in India suggest that support from family members and health care professionals help mothers to make decisions about infant-feeding. However, early initiation of weaning and introduction of pre-lacteal food are common practices in India, and there is limited literature exploring factors influencing mothers’ decisions about weaning. Therefore, the aims of the present study were to explore first-time mothers’ experiences of weaning, and to identify the factors influencing their decision-making about weaning.

Abstract:

Introduction: The BLW method (Baby-Led Weaning) is an increasingly used method of introducing complementary nutrition to infants, in which the phase of feeding a puree with a spoon is completely omitted and larger pieces of food are immediately offered to the infants. There are concerns that children at BLW may cause worse thriving of them. Aims: The main aim of the work is to compare the somatic parameters of 12 months old infants depending on the method of feeding. The partial goals are to find out how much information parents have about the BLW method and what their child's nutrition looks

Abstract:

The hypothesis that source of protein in a nutritionally adequate diet during gestation, lactation and weaning alters food intake and characteristics of metabolic syndrome in the offspring was investigated. Pregnant Wistar rats were randomized to either the AIN 93-G casein (C) or soy protein (S) diets (n=12/group) during gestation only or during gestation and lactation. Male offspring in each dams’ diet group were weaned to either C or S diets (n=12/group). Food intake, body weight (BW), fat pad mass, systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, and plasma homocysteine (p<0.05) were high
