Diet Composition and Feeding Strategy of the New World Silverside Odontesthes argentinensis in a Temperate Coastal Area (South America)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-02)
The diet composition and feeding strategy of the New World silverside Odontesthes argentinensis were evaluated in a temperate coastal area during austral summer. This species is an economically significant resource for the ...
Ontogenetic changes in the feeding strategy of Lepidonotothen nudifrons (Pisces, Nototheniidae) off the South Shetland islands and the Antarctic Peninsula
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-06-01)
The diet and feeding strategy of Lepidonotothen nudifrons off the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula, as well as their variation in relation to ontogenetic stage (juvenile– adult) and sampling area, were ...
Critical threshold meal size and molt initiation in Rhodnius prolixus
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-12)
The molting process and body growth in Rhodnius prolixus (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) (Ståhl, 1859) are significantly influenced by the availability and quality of food. Based on the body weight of each stage, the present study ...
Effect of feeding strategy on the performance of a pilot scale vertical flow wetland for the treatment of landfill leachate
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
Landfill leachate is one of the most challenging types of wastewater to treat using constructed wetlands. The objectiveof this study was to evaluate the effect of two feeding strategies on the treatment efficiency of a ...
Substrate Feeding Strategy Integrated with a Biomass Bayesian Estimator for a Biotechnological Process
(WALTER DE GRUYTER GMBH, 2016-12-01)
This work proposes a substrate feeding strategy for a bioprocess integrated with a biomass estimator based in nonlinear filtering techniques. The performance of the proposed estimator and the substrate strategy are illustrated ...
Feasibility of compensatory growth in early juveniles of "red claw" crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus under high density conditions
(Elsevier Science, 2019-06)
The aim of this work is to study the feasibility to induce compensatory growth in Cherax quaricarinatus crayfish at an early stage of development under high density, the typical conditions of nursery phase. An advantageous ...
Feeding strategies alter gene expression of the calpain system and meat quality in the longissimus muscle of Braford steers
(Asian-australasian Assoc Animal Production Soc, 2019-08)
Objective: The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of supplementing pasture-finished steers with corn silage on the expression level of the calpain system proteins and beef tenderization. Methods: Thirty ...
Effect of gas feed flow and gas composition modulation on activated carbon performance in phenol wet air oxidation
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2007-12)
Modulation of gas feed composition (air/N2 cycling) and gas feed flow (on-off air cycling) was investigated in the catalytic wet air oxidation of phenol over activated carbon (AC). Fifty hours lasting experiments were ...
