The response of broiler chicks fed rye with dietary pentosanase supplementation was examined with respect to rye variety, area of production, and maturity at harvest. There were significant differences among varieties in the absence of enzyme addition and significant differences (variety × enzyme, P < 0.01) in the magnitude of the chick growth response to dietary pentosanase (exp. 1). Kodiak and Cougar rye gave greater enzyme-induced growth response than did Gazelle rye, with Musketeer rye and an unknown sample displaying intermediate values. Experiment 2 gave similar results; both Kodiak and Cougar rye in chick diets gave a larger response to dietary pentosanase than did Musketeer rye (P > 0.05). Determination of soluble carbohydrates, as well as extract viscosity, indicated that Kodiak rye had higher extract viscosity, higher extractable pentosan content, and a lower arabinose-to-xylose ratio; however, these results were not consistent with Cougar rye. Differing production location of a single variety (Musketeer, exp. 3) or maturity at harvest (exp. 4) indicated no significant effect on the nutritive value of rye attributable to location or maturity with or without enzyme supplementation, nor was there an effect on the magnitude of enzyme response. In rye harvested at different stages of maturity there was, however, a nonsignificant linear depression in chick growth with rye harvested at higher moisture levels. Key words: Rye, pentosans, broiler chicks, pentosanase

The recent conceptual pivot from bioethanol production to ethanol biorefining has led to development of protein derived by fractionating the non-ethanol streams post fermentation within the plant. The aim of this study was to identify the effect of replacing dietary soy with corn-fermented protein (CFP) on performance of fast-growing meat species and the impact on the carbon footprint associated with the feed for each species. The study contains trials on 3 species, broiler, turkey and salmon. In trial one, 324 broiler chicks were allocated randomly to 36 pens distributed into 3 dietary treatments; control (0% CFP), 5% CFP and 10% CFP; for 35 days. In trial 2, 150 turkey poults were allocated to 3 treatments: control (0 CFP), 4% CFP and 8% CFP for 35 days. In trial 3, 525 Atlantic Salmon (starting weight 304 g ± 10.7 g) were raised in 15 saltwater tanks for 84 days with 5 treatments, control (0% CFP), 5% CFP, 10% CFP, 15% CFP and 20% CFP. Growth response, nutrient utilisation and carbon footprint were assessed in each trial. Replacement of soy with CFP showed limited differences in growth response and nutrient utilization but replacing soy bean meal with CFP at rate of 5%, 8% and 10% in broiler, turkey and salmon diets, respectively resulted in a 14% decrease in carbon footprint of diet manufacturing. This investigation shows coupling bioethanol production with poultry and salmon production represents a highly effective circular economy contributing to multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Three experiments were conducted to study the effect of heat and acid treatment of rye and wheat on the response of broiler chicks to dietary pentosanase. In exp. 1, autoclaving rye greatly potentiated the growth response to dietary pentosanase (P < 0.01) while producing little or no effect without enzyme. Acid treatment (0.2 N HCl) alone, or in conjunction with autoclaving, improved the performance of broilers fed rye but did not enhance the enzyme response. Examination of the pentosan content or viscosity of treated rye indicated no substantial effect of autoclaving, although some breakdown of pentosan was apparent in the presence of acid. A second experiment confirmed the enzyme potentiating effect of autoclaving in broilers fed rye (cv. Musketeer and Kodiak) and wheat. The response to dietary enzyme was greater for rye than wheat. Viscosity determinations of intestinal contents indicated that autoclaving enabled the dietary pentosanase to reduce viscosity to a greater extent than that achievable with enzyme alone. In exp. 3, Musketeer rye subjected to commercial heat-processing procedures gave a similar response to that observed with autoclaving, although differences in effectiveness were seen. Pelleting alone (without enzyme supplementation) resulted in improved weight gain and feed conversion of chicks fed rye. Both pelleting and micronizing, but not steam-flaking, resulted in a greater response (P < 0.10) to dietary pentosanase. Key words: Broiler chicks, rye, pentosanase, heat treatment

ООО «БИОТРОФ», Санкт-Петербург Аннотация: Приведены данные исследования методом газожидкостной хроматомасс-спектрометрии метаболитов, синтезируемых пробиотическими бактериями, входящими в состав кормовой добавки «Профорт®». Проведен опыт в условиях интенсивного промышленного птицеводства по применению кормовой добавки «Профорт®» (50 тыс. голов бройлеров в группе). Среди метаболитов пробиотических штаммов Enterococcus sp. и Bacillus sp. обнаружены такие полезные вещества, как молочная кислота, уксусная, пропионовая и другие короткоцепочечные (летучие) жирные кислоты, активные пептиды. Результаты зоотехнического опыта показали, что при скармливании бройлерам пробиотика «Профорт®» (500 г/т) живая масса при убое в 40 дней была выше контроля на 6,9%, конверсия корма улучшилась на 3,0%, а европейский индекс продуктивности бройлеров - на 5,69%.

Effects of supplemental dietary lysine and methionine in a Groundnut Cake (GNC) based diets on meat and bone characteristics of broiler chickens were investigated. In a completely randomized design, a total of 168 one - day – old Arbor acre broiler chicks were randomly allocated to seven dietary treatments each in triplicate of eight birds per replicate. The Seven starter and finishers’ diets were: GNC based diets without any amino acid (lysine or methionine) supplementation (T1); GNC diet + 0.2% lysine (T2); GNC diet + 0.4% lysine (T3); GNC diet + 0.2% methionine (T4); GNC diet + 0.4% methionine (T5); GNC diet + 0.2 lysine and 0.2% methionine (T6) and GNC diet + 0.4% lysine and 0.4% methionine (T7). Experimental diets and water were offered to birds ad libitum in an experiment lasting six-week. At day 42, two birds per replicate were slaughtered, meat and bone characteristics determined. There were significant variations (P<0.05) in the crude protein (%) and ether extract (%), pH1 and pH2 of meat. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances composition of meat at days 0, 5, and 10 were similar (P<0.05) and were not affected by dietary amino acid supplementation. Tibiotarsal index (mg/mm) of bone (22.10, 27.25, 33.35, 31.40, 28.70, 31.45 and 29.75 for broilers on T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6 and T7, respectively) were increased significantly (P<0.05) by amino acid supplementation. Significantly differences (P<0.05) were observed in the calcium, phosphorus and potassium (%) contents of broilers’ bone across treatments. Supplemental lysine and both lysine and methionine improved meat quality and bone development of broiler chickens in this study.

The research was conducted to study the effect of feeding broiler chickens on diets containing isomaltooligosaccharides on the growth performance, carcass traits and immune response. 90-one day old broiler chicks were used according to completely randomized two treatment groups and one control, 30 birds each. Birds fed ad-libitum on basal starter and grower-finisher diets for 35 day. Diets of treatment`s groups contained 0.5 g/Kg and 1 g/Kg of Isomaltooligosaccharides, while the control group fed on the basal diets without Isomaltooligosaccharides supplementation. Dietary supplementation of broiler chickens with Isomaltooligosaccharides improved body weight, feed conversion, carcass traits, two lymphoid organs weight and log antibody titer against avian flu vaccine. Most of the highest values were for birds fed low levels of Isomaltooligosaccharides. Feed intake decreases as Isomaltooligosaccharides level increases. Dietary supplementation with Isomaltooligosaccharides did not affect the lipids profile (triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL and HDL), however the blood VLDL levels decreased with increased levels of Malondialdehyde and Glutathione reductase. Collectively, Dietary supplementation of broiler chickens with 0.5 g/Kg diet of Isomaltooligosaccharides improved growth performance, carcass traits and immune status.
