Gas chromatographic quantification of fatty acids profile from administered forage to lactating buffaloes.
Journal Title: Animal Biology & Animal Husbandry - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The dairy buffalo feeding must supply their optimal economic and technical level and highlights their biological production potential output. This study aims to emphasize the results of the physical and chemical compounds analyze from the administered forage to lactating buffaloes, and profile of the fatty acids, using gas chromatography. The most representative fatty acids from the forage are: palmitic acid C16:0, linoleic acid C18:2 and linolenic acid C18:3. The dry matter of the administered forage to lactating buffaloes varies between the following average values: 88.65±0.02% and 93.59±0.01%.

Growth and survival of porkfish (Anisotremus virginicus) larvae: comparing rotifers and copepod nauplii during first feeding
Eggs of porkfish (Anisotremus virginicus) were obtained from natural spawning events occuring at Seaworld Orlando and transported to the Tropical Aquaculture Laboratory. Eggs were stocked into 12 L experimental rearing t...
Applications of geometric morphometric analysis in describing sexual dimorphism in shell shapes in Vivipara angularis Muller (Family Viviparidae)
Prior studies have shown different insights about sexual shell dimorphism in the snails of familyViviparidae. This study was conducted to evaluate and determine the occurence of sexual dimorphism and shape variation in t...
Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum, 1792)(Salmoniformes, Salmonidae), a newly introduced fish recorded in natural freshwaters of Jiuzhaigou Valley, Sichuan, China
The Oncorhynchus mykiss is native to areas of the Pacific Ocean in Asian and North America, which in relatively short time has been introduced into at least 45 countries and territories. In some regions, it has establish...
A non-invasive, improved RIA and overt observation in the study of singleton Apennines’ wolf (Canis lupus) reproductive behaviour.
The analysis of fecal hormones allows a close but non-invasive monitoring of animals avoiding the stress of restraint/capture, which in turn can upset animals’ hormonal profile. Steroid hormone progesterone was analysed...
