Digestibility for Ruminant Feeds

This test method is a laboratory procedure used to estimate the digestibility of feedstuffs by simulating animal digestive processes. It is commonly applied in animal nutrition studies to evaluate how well animals can utilize different feed ingredients.

Energy Calculations

This test method is a cross-method calculation involving total digestible nutrients, net energy for lactation, net energy for maintenance, net energy for gain, digestible energy, and metabolizable energy analyses.

This test method is a cross-method calculation involving digestible energy and metabolizable energy analyses.

Enterobacteriaceae

This test method is a standardized microbiological procedure for the detection and enumeration of Enterobacteriaceae in food and environmental samples. This method utilizes selective culture media and incubation conditions to isolate and quantify members of this important bacterial family.

Fatty Acid Profile [FAME]

This test method is a gas chromatography (GC-FID)-based procedure for the quantitative determination of cis-, trans-, saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids in vegetable oils and non-ruminant animal fats. This method enables detailed fatty acid profiling critical for nutritional labeling, product formulation, and quality control.

Crude Fat [Hexane]

This test method is a classical gravimetric method used to determine crude fat content in animal feeds through solvent extraction. It is widely applied in feed analysis to quantify the total fat (lipid) content, including triglycerides, phospholipids, and other hexane-soluble materials.

Crude Fat [Hexane w/ celite]

This test method is a classical gravimetric method used to determine crude fat content in animal feeds through solvent extraction. It is widely applied in feed analysis to quantify the total fat (lipid) content, including triglycerides, phospholipids, and other hexane-soluble materials. High moisture samples are mixed with celite, or diatomaceous earth, prior to analysis to… Continue reading Crude Fat [Hexane w/ celite]
