Camelina as Feed
Digestible, metabolizable, and net energy of camelina cake fed to growing pigs and additivity of energy in mixed diets – JW Kim, B Koo, CM Nyachoti – Journal of Animal Science 2017
David Roberts /
Summary: Matthäus and Zubr (2000) have suggested that enzymatic hydrolysis of the glucosinolates in camelina seed may produce only nonvolatile isothiocyanates because of long carbon chains in its residue. In addition to this, camelina does not contain progoitrin, which can be converted into toxic goitrin. Therefore, the adverse effect of glucosinolates in CC may be less than that in rapeseed ...
Effects of partial or total replacement of sunflower meal with camelina meal on dairy cows’ milk fatty acids profile – S Toma, C Dragomir, M Habeanu, M Ropota, A Cismileanu, H Grosu – Archiva Zootechnica 2015
David Roberts /
Summary: The replacement of sunflower meal by camelina meal didn’t have a significant effect on milk yield or on mil components (protein, fat and lactose). On the other hand, due to its content in residual oil, and although was not protected against ruminal biohydrogenation, camelina meal improved the milk FA profile, by increasing PUFA n-3 and n-6. Of these noticeable ...

David Roberts /
Summary: In this study growth and lipid composition of Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout and Atlantic cod were compared after feeding a diet containing camelina oil (CO) as a full replacement of fish oil (FO). In terms of both growth performance and utilization of CO towards fatty acid biosynthesis, it appears that dietary CO is more appropriate for salmonids species than ...

David Roberts /
Summary: The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of ewes’ feeding system (grazing vs. part-time grazing) in combination or not with camelina seed (Camelina sativa L.) as dietary supplement on milk yield parameters, and especially on the fatty acid (FA) profile of milk fat. Feeding a grazing diet combined with camelina seed increased the proportion of C18:1, ...
Effects of Feeding Camelina (Seeds or Meal) on Milk Fatty Acid Composition and Butter Spreadability – C. Hurtaud and J. L. Peyraud – Journal of Diary Science – 2007
David Roberts /
Summary: The aim of this trial was to examine to what extent feeding the linolenic acid-rich cruciferous plant camelina can affect the fatty acid composition of dairy products and the properties of butter. The camelina diets tended to decrease dry matter intake but did not have a significant effect on milk production. They generated a slight decrease in milk protein ...

David Roberts /
Summary: Our study evaluated the potential use of Camelina meal (CM) as a feed ingredient in turkey poult starter diets. Results indicate that CM may be a potentially useful minor ingredient in turkey diets if economically feasible, but caution should be exercised in using CM above 5% of finished feed in a poult starter diet. In an appended test, similar ...

Transcriptomic analyses of intestinal gene expression of juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) fed diets with Camelina oil as replacement for fish oil – S.Morais, R.B. Edvardsen, D.R. Tocher, and J.G. Bell – Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology – 2011
David Roberts /
Summary: For aquaculture of marine species to continue to expand, dietary fish oil must be replaced with more sustainable vegetable oil alternatives. Most vegetable oils are rich in n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and few are rich in n-3 PUFA but Camelina oil is unique in that, besides high 18:3n-3 and n-3/n-6 PUFA ratio, it also contains substantial long-chain monoenes, ...
Changes in Tissue Lipid and Fatty Acid Composition of Farmed Rainbow Trout in Response to Dietary Camelina Oil as a Replacement of Fish Oil – S.M. Hixson, C.C. Parrish, and D.M. Anderson – Lipids – 2013
David Roberts /
Summary: Camelina oil replaced 50% and 100% of fish oil in diets for farmed rainbow trout. Camelina is particularly unique due to its high lipid content and high amount of α-linolenic acid. Replacing 100% of fish oil with camelina oil did not negatively affect growth of rainbow trout after a 12-week feeding trial. Final DHA and EPA amounts in a ...

David Roberts /
Summary: Camelina oil (CO) and meal (CM) are potential replacements of fish meal (FM) and oil in aquaculture feeds. This study tested diets with 100% Camelina oil, solvent extracted FM and partially substituted FM with 10% CM, in a 16 week feeding trial with Atlantic salmon. This was the first study to use CO as a complete FO replacement in ...

David Roberts /
Camelina (Camelina sativa) oil was tested as a replacement for fish oil in diets for farmed Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). Camelina differs from other plant oilseeds previously used in aquaculture with high lipid, α-linolenic acid, antioxidants and low proportions of saturated fats. In sum: Camelina oil can reduce the amount of fish oil needed to meet lipid requirements, although replacing ...
Biochemical Characterization of Flour from Seeds of Camelina sativa L. (Crantz) After Chemical Extraction of Oil – R. Russo – PhD Thesis, U of Milan, 2012
David Roberts /
Summary: Camelina meal has high protein content, a balanced amino acid profile and a quite good ruminal digestibility of protein similar to rapeseed or soybean meal used in animal feed. Low-input Camelina biodiesel by-product could strongly substitute for high-input rapeseed or soybean biodiesel by-product in feed formulations. The characterization of Camelina meal described in this thesis suggests that research trials ...
Antinutritive Compounds in Twelve Camelina sativa Genotypes – R. Russo and R. Reggiani – American Journal of Plant Sciences – 2012
David Roberts /
Summary: The use of Camelina meal in animal diets may be limited by antinutritive compounds. The content of glucosinolates, phytic acid, sinapine and condensed tannins was evaluated in twelve accessions of Camelina sativa. Camelina showed the presence of three different glucosinolates in the meal, with differences among genotypes regarding the relative abundance of each glucosinolate.

Evaluation of Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz meal as an alternative protein source in ruminant rations – S. Colombini, GA Broderick, I. Galasso, T. Martinelli, L.Rapetti, R. Russo, R. Reggiani – Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture 2013
David Roberts /
Summary: Camelina is an oilseed crop used for biofuel production. By-products from oil extrameal has potential for use in ruminant rations as a high-quality protein source. In vivo studies are needed to compare CS with other protein sources used in cattle rations. Implementation of breeding programs for improved meal quality is recommend.

Effects of camelina meal supplementation on ruminal forage degradability, performance, and physiological responses of beef cattle – B. I. Cappellozza, R. F. Cooke, D. W. Bohnert, G. Cherian and J. A. Carroll – Journal of Animal Science 2012
David Roberts /
Summary: Three experiments compared ruminal, physiological, and performance responses of beef steers consuming hay ad libitum and receiving grain-based supplements without (control) or with (CAM) the inclusion of camelina meal. In summary, CAM supplementation to steers impaired forage and total DMI, did not alter thyroid gland function, increased circulating concentrations of PUFA, and lessened the acute-phase protein reaction elicited by ...
