Summary: Angus × Gelbvieh rotationally crossbred yearling heifers were used in a 2-year randomized complete block design experiment with repeated measures to determine the effect of feeding camelina biodiesel coproducts (meal and crude glycerin) on serum concentrations of triiodothyronine, thyroxine, insulin, β-hydroxybutyrate, and glucose, as well as on growth and reproductive performance. We conclude that camelina co-products can replace conventional ...
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, ...
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 ...
Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensory profile based on the principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis of Euclidean distances as well as evaluate a volatile profile in ewes’ milk. Milk of ewes fed Camelina had a distinct animal, grainy and processed aroma. After pasteurization, the cooked and dairy fat aroma intensified. Addition of Camelina ...
Summary: The present work was designed to study Camelina sativa (CS)as a new dietary source of omega-3-fatty acids for the production of healthful eggs. The results indicate that the fatty acid composition of hen eggs can be beneficially modified by Camelina saliva seed oil. The functional properties of eggs did not deteriorate. The sensory properties in CS oil eggs were ...
Summary: The diet for broiler chicken was supplemented with camelina oil and was compared with diets supplemented with soybean oil and rapeseed oil. No differences were observed for growth performance. However, the type of oil impacted the fatty acid profile of muscle tissue and abdominal fat. These results showed the usefulness of camelina oil in producing food enriched with α-linolenic ...
