Three experiments were conducted to evaluate the various
methods and application rates of ferrous sulfate-heptahydrate in
the control of atmospheric ammonia in an enclosed broiler house.
The first experiment was conducted to determine the optimal
rate of application of ferrous sulfate-heptahydrate on built-up
litter. Ferrous sulfate was applied on built-up...
The objectives in these four experiments were to observe
the effectiveness of sodium bisulfate and clinoptilolite and
different methods of application of sodium bisulfate, ferrous
sulfate heptahydrate and Micro Aide® on atmospheric ammonia
level in the broiler house and on broiler performance.
The first experiment was conducted to determine the...
Physical and chemical properties of wood (W) fiber (F)
pellets (P) and wood (W) shavings(S) were determined in the
laboratory prior to their use.
Laboratory results showed that WS were superior to WFP
except for moisture holding capacity on volume basis which is
one of the most essential properties of...
A series of four experiments were conducted to study
sulfa residues with market turkeys and to observe the
repletion, depletion and possible recycling effect from
reused litter.
In the first experiment, sulfaquinoxaline (S.Q.) was
fed at 0.015% level from 8 to 16 weeks of age. No significant
effects were observed...
The influence of increasing temperatures on human health has been widely established across multiple health disciplines. Short-term temperature changes are associated with an increased risk of hospitalization and death overall and in a variety of health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease. Even as humans can self-regulate heat stresses, the elderly,...
