AI Article Synopsis
- - An experiment was conducted over 40 days to assess how tanniferous fruit and soybean oil affect lamb performance, meat characteristics, and fatty acid profiles, using twenty creole male lambs in a randomized design with four different dietary treatments.
- - The study measured the concentration of condensed tannins and found no significant interactions between soybean oil and the fruit, with no differences in daily gain, intake, or feed conversion.
- - Results indicated that while soybean oil decreased dry matter digestibility, the combination of fruit and soybean oil did not enhance the lambs' performance compared to the control diet.
Article Abstract
To evaluate phenolic compounds and whether the combination of a tanniferous fruit and soybean oil could improve the performance, meat characteristics, and fatty acid (FA) profile in lambs, an experiment was conducted over 40 days with twenty creole male lambs (23.71 ± 3.46 kg). The lambs were allotted in a completely randomised design, with factorial arrangement 2 × 2, with the following dietary treatments: (1) control diet, (2) 2% ground fruit dry matter (DM), (3) 2% soybean oil DM, and (4) 2% fruit plus 2% soybean oil. The concentration of condensed tannins (CT) in was 21.71 g/kg DM. No interactions were detected ( > 0.05) among soybean oil and , and there were no differences in daily gain, intake, and feed conversion. Soybean oil reduced ( < 0.05) DM digestibility (68.05 versus 59.56%). In fat from the (LTL) muscle, only linoleic acid presented differences ( < 0.05) between treatments. The combination of fruit and soybean oil did not improve lamb performance at the included levels.

Bacterial levans are biopolymers composed of fructose units linked by β-2,6 glycosidic bonds that are degradable, nontoxic and flexible, representing a green technology with significant applications across various industries. Fermented soybeans are a common source of bacteria-producing polysaccharides. In this study, KKSB4, KKSB6 and KKSB7 isolated from traditionally fermented soybean (Thua-nao), along with strain 5.

Enhancement of human-horse interaction is crucial for safety in equine management, as poor relationships between humans and horses can lead to accidents. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is highly related to social affinity in animals and several studies have been documented that supplementation of tryptophan, which is a precursor of serotonin, can increase calmness of horses. This study aimed to assess the effect of tryptophan through soybean oil supplementation on serotonin concentrations and the behavior of horses.

The objective of this study was to prepare a microcapsule system composed of the inner microenvironment (probiotics), middle oil layer (soybean oil and polyglycerol polyricinoleate) and outer coacervate (whey protein and gum arabic) using double emulsification technique coupled with complex coacervation to encapsulate probiotics, and to evaluate the effect of adding krill oil (KO) to the middle oil layer on microcapsule structure and probiotic stability. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Scanning electron microscopy confirmed that whey protein may capture phospholipids in KO through hydrogen bonds, resulting in the formation of a more compact coacervate. Due to the compact coacervate enhanced the vapor transport barrier and reduced water evaporation during low-temperature dehydration, probiotics encapsulated in KO-supplemented microcapsules revealed less cell damage and a higher survival rate after freeze-drying.
