Fundamentals of Animal Science
FUNDAMENTALS OF ANIMAL SCIENCE is a research-based book that provides your students with balanced and comprehensive information on both companion animals, such as dogs and cats, and production animals such as horses, livestock, poultry and fish. This book provides an introductory overview on such key topics as animal production, rearing and products, and focuses on disciplines such as nutrition, reproduction, genetics and diseases. FUNDAMENTALS OF ANIMAL SCIENCE also includes sections on animal welfare, food safety, and how animals impact the environment. To foster classroom discussion and facilitate learning, this book presents related societal issues and discussion points for review and includes side bar definitions, multiple review questions, and illustrations that will help your students better understand the concepts of animal science. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.
Nutritional Impacts the Health and Physiology of the Avian Gastro-intestinal Tract
The physiology of birds is regulated by the interplay internally between the gastrointestinal functioning, endocrine, nervous and defensive systems (immune and anti-oxidative). Acting on these are external factors such as nutrition and the gastrointestinal microbiome. One focus of this Research Topic is the importance of various nutritional physiological approaches, the parameters to be employed and an assessment of their reliability and feasibility. Aims of this topic include the following: 1) Identify specific interventions to facilitate the elimination of food borne pathogens in poultry 2) Develop nutritional strategies to reduce food borne colonization in poultry and reduce prevalence of...
Women in Avian Physiology: 2023
At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes discourage girls and women from pursuing a career in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) research. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development. Although underrepresented, and often unacknowledged, female researchers have been crucial to scientific advances. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
The Association between Avian Physiology and Meat Quality
The United Nations has recently released population projections suggesting that the global population will reach 9.7 billion by 2050 and exceed 11 billion by 2100. The increase in the world population may lead to food shortages, especially that of food protein. A variety of food protein alternatives have been developed and launched to the market to solve the problem of diminishing resources, particularly of land and water. In fact, animal protein has become a target in recent times for its greenhouse gas emissions. However, the UN has projected a steady increase in demand for poultry meat over the upcoming decades. The main demand will be from middle class and low-income families in particular and is due mainly to its high production efficiency for inexpensive, good-quality proteins. Nonetheless, due to limited resources, the poultry meat produced must be of high quality to ensure food security and minimize food waste.
