  • Enzyme Supplementation of Broiler Chicken Diets Containing Whole Flax Seed as a Means to Increase n-3 Fatty Acids in Human Diets

    Creator:
    Apperson, K. Denise
    Abstract:
    Flax seed is a rich source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Feeding broiler birds flax seed can increase n-3 fatty acids (FA) in meat tissues and can increase human intake of n-3 FA. However, non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) in flax seed decrease digestibility of lipids and proteins and have a negative impact...

    Al-Soudi, Khalid A.
    Abstract:
    Several experiments were carried out on Coturnix coturnix japonica to investigate the effect of selection for growth on a protein deficient ration. A level of 27% protein was found to be optimum for three different strains and 17.8% was the lowest protein level used that allowed for growth and accordingly...

  • Retronasal Odor Enhancement by Salty and Umami Tastes

    Creator:
    Linscott, Tyler D.
    Abstract:
    The sensations of taste and smell are integral to our perception of food. Because the olfactory and gustatory systems are physiologically separate, scientists were once uncertain of whether information from these two systems interacted at the perceptual level. Recent studies suggest that taste and smell do indeed interact. Two interaction...
