This collection features five peer-reviewed reviews on dietary supplements in poultry nutrition. The first chapter reviews latest research on feed enzymes focussing on identifying the key challenges researchers face in terms of current trends in enzyme development, mechanism(s) of action and enzyme efficacy. The second chapter considers the role of probiotics in optimising gut function in poultry. It reviews the development of novel, cost-effective, feed-stable, direct-fed microbials with potential for widespread utilisation and improved production. The third chapter discusses the role of essential oils and botanicals in improving gut function in poultry, focussing on four major functions of phytobiotics that could potentially contribute to gut health: digestive conditioning, antimicrobial property, immunomodulation and gut microbiota modulation. The fourth chapter considers the development of alternative protein sources for poultry nutrition, including grain by-products, pulses and algae. It also reviews best practices for improving the nutritive value of these alternative protein sources. The final chapter reviews the effects of supplemental full- or de-fatted microalgal biomass in poultry diets on animal production and performance, meat and egg qualities, as well as nutrient metabolism and molecular responses.
A handy collection of tips to consider in the preparation of manuscripts and submission to journals for publication. The booklet addresses procedures for dealing with key parts of a manuscript and prepares the mind of the early researcher towards the review process. Although the book has more of a life sciences flavour, students and researchers in other fields will gain from some of the general areas that are covered.
Today there are millions of African children living outside the continent or outside their own countries. The school curriculums do not include much positive information on Africa and with parents ever so busy, many of the children do not get enough information on the continent. Most importantly they do not receive enough guidance on how Africans live and how to be successful in life. This book offers introductory information on Africa and provides guiding chapters on studying at school, dealing with discrimination, becoming a teenager, the danger of drugs, sports, choosing a career, sexual relationships, and marriage. It is a good beginning for parents to initiate discussions with the children. It will also stimulate the children to ask more questions, and learn more about Africa. Many of the chapters that will be useful to all African children who live in Africa and some chapters will provide guidance to non-African children too.
