Synergistic influence of extrusion conditions and whey protein isolate (WPI) incorporation on glycemic response and physicochemical characteristics of rice starch was studied. Box-Behnken Design was used to evaluate effect of process variables (rice starch:WPI ratio; feed moisture and barrel temperature) on quality characteristics of resistant starch-rich, low GI extruded snacks (RSLG-E). Optimum conditions for development of RSLG-E were WPI:18.

Article Synopsis
  • Tarhana is a traditional fermented food known for its nutritional benefits and shelf life, and this study explored how adding pea protein isolate (PPI) affects its properties.
  • As the amount of PPI increased in tarhana, the protein content rose significantly, reaching over 76% in the highest PPI formulation, and also increased the antioxidant capacity and key polyphenols.
  • The study found that PPI not only improved the digestibility of the protein and lowered the glycemic index of tarhana, making it healthier, but also showed potential for enhancing the nutritional profile of this traditional food.

Article Synopsis
  • Isoflavones are polyphenols that can create complexes with starch, which helps slow down starch digestion.
  • Researchers studied different isoflavones (daidzein, genistein, biochanin A, genistin, and puerarin) to understand how their structures affect starch interactions.
  • Findings indicated that daidzein and genistein for more effective complexes with starch, likely due to their smaller size and fewer hydroxyl groups, emphasizing the importance of these structural features in determining starch digestibility.

This study investigated the effects and interactions among diets formulated to have high starch-to-lipid ratios (S:L), amino acid density [indicated as % digestible lysine (DigLys)], and AME on growth performance and carcass characteristics of heat stressed broilers. A {3,3} simplex lattice design was used to assess relative effects and generate predictive models. Three basal finisher diets were formulated to have the highest S:L ratio (Basal A; 20:1), DigLys (Basal B; 1.

Net energy of grains for dairy goats differed with processing methods and grain types.

J Anim Sci Biotechnol

January 2025

College of Animal Science and Technology, Northwest A&F University, Yangling, Shaanxi, 712100, China.

Background: The diverse types and processing methods of grains intricately influence the sites and digestibility of starch digestion, thereby impacting energy utilization. This study aimed to explore the impact of grain variety and processing methods on the net energy (NE) in dairy goats, analyzing these effects at the level of nutrient digestion and metabolism.

Methods: Eighteen castrated Guanzhong dairy goats (44.
