Nutrient density of Bangladeshi foods and its application in planning diet for pregnant women
This study aimed to identify foods that are rich sources of the seven micronutrients (iron, zinc, calcium, thiamine, ribofla vin, vitamin A, and vitamin B12) of public health concern for the Bangladeshi population.. This study developed a metric termed “naturally nutrient-rich score 7 (NNR7) ” specifically for third-trimester pregnant women to identify nutrient-dense foods. Further, it computed the nutrient adequacy score (NAS) of the top NNR7-scored foods for seven micronutrients to assess the extent (percent) to which foods can meet pregnant women ’s recommended dietary allowances (RDA). A linear programming techni...

Low dietary oyster mushroom spent substrate limitedly ameliorates detrimental effects of feeding combined marula seed cake and mucuna seed meal as soya bean replacements in broiler chickens
In conclusion, dietary replacement of SBM with combined MSC plus MSM induced deleterious effects in broiler chickens that were limitedly abrogated by low (1.25%) inclusion level of OMSS. (Source: Tropical Animal Health and Production)

Comparative transcriptome profile reveals insight into the antibacterial immunity mechanism of the loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) fed with soybean fermented broth during lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Jan 4:129239. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129239. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLoach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) is a common freshwater commercial fish species in China. The meat of this fish is a good source of protein and other nutrients that are needed for human health. Aquaculture challenges such as diseases and pest susceptibility, excessive density, and nutritional deficiency result in low production of loach rather than increased demand. Due to a lack of knowledge about the immune system of loaches, we carried out this study to better understand its antibacterial molecular mechanism. Her...
