Influence Of Crystalline Or Protein-Bound Lysine On Growth Performance, Body Protein Deposition And Lysine Utilization In Nursery Pigs, Janeth J. Colina, Phillip S. Miller, Austin Lewis, Robert L. Fischer Jan 2003

Influence Of Crystalline Or Protein-Bound Lysine On Growth Performance, Body Protein Deposition And Lysine Utilization In Nursery Pigs, Janeth J. Colina, Phillip S. Miller, Austin Lewis, Robert L. Fischer

Nebraska Swine Reports

Experiments have shown that the efficiency of utilization of crystalline amino acids may be lower than that of amino acids bound in protein. A four-week experiment was conducted to determine whether the efficiency of utilization of crystalline lysine was lower than that of lysine in soybean meal for growth and body protein deposition in nursery pigs. A total of 30 pigs (15 barrows and 15 gilts) with initial body weight of 13 lb were blocked by sex and randomly allotted, one per pen, to 30 pens in two nursery facilities. There were six replications per treatment. Six pigs (three barrows …

Comparison Of Swine Performance When Fed Diets Containing Corn Root Worm Protected Corn, Parental Line Corn, Or Conventional Corn Grown During 2000 In Nebraska, Robert L. Fischer, Phillip S. Miller, Sara S. Blodgett, Steven J. Kitt

Nebraska Swine Reports

This experiment was conducted to evaluate growth performance and carcass quality measurements in growing-finishing pigs fed diets containing either Corn Root Worm Protected Corn (CRW0586), the parental control corn (RX670), or two commercial sources of non-genetically modified corn (DK647 and RX740). The experiment used 72 barrows and 72 gilts with an average initial body weight of 50 lb. The pigs were allotted to a randomized complete block design with a 2 x 4 factorial arrangement of treatments (two sexes x four corn hybrids). The experiment continued until the average body weight was 260 lb, at which time all pigs were …

Effects Of Glutamine On Growth Performance And Intestinal Development Of Immune Challenged Weanling Pigs Fed Chemically Defined Diets, Steven J. Kitt, Phillip S. Miller, Robert L. Fischer

Nebraska Swine Reports

Glutamine is currently considered a nonessential amino acid for pigs. In this study we investigated whether glutamine is essential during an acute immune challenge. Thirty-six individually housed 20-day old pigs were blocked by location and allotted to one of three purified dietary treatments: 1)contained no L-Glutamine (CON), 2) contained 5% L-Glutamine (GLN), or 3) contained no L-glutamine but was equalized to GLN diet on a nitrogen basis with other nonessential amino acids (AA). Pigs were fed these diets for a 14-day growth assay. On day 7, one half of the pigs from each treatment were injected with 200 µg•kg BW …

Fatty Acid Composition Of Fresh Pork Bellies -Implications To Bacon Production?, Carmina Robles, Betsy Booren, Roger W. Mandigo Jan 2003

Fatty Acid Composition Of Fresh Pork Bellies -Implications To Bacon Production?, Carmina Robles, Betsy Booren, Roger W. Mandigo

Nebraska Swine Reports

Commercial bacon processors often raise concerns regarding the management practice of frozen storage of the bellies prior to curing and processing for sliced bacon. Deterioration of quality measures is a concern and is usually attributed to freezer storage. A secondary issue, in the production of bacon including those processed from frozen bellies, is the effect of breed and sex of pigs. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of a 15-day frozen storage time, the genetics, and sex of the pig on the quality and fatty acid profile of pork bellies. Frozen storage of fresh pork bellies did …

Capture Of Breeding And Wintering Shorebirds With Leg-Hold Noose-Mats, Katherine R. Mehl, Kiel L. Drake, Gary W. Page, Peter M. Sanzenbacher, Susan M. Haig, Jonathan E. Thompson Jan 2003

Capture Of Breeding And Wintering Shorebirds With Leg-Hold Noose-Mats, Katherine R. Mehl, Kiel L. Drake, Gary W. Page, Peter M. Sanzenbacher, Susan M. Haig, Jonathan E. Thompson

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

Development of effective trapping techniques is important for conservation efforts, as marking and subsequent monitoring of individuals is necessary to obtain accurate estimates of demography, movements, and habitat use. We describe a leg-hold noose-mat trap for capturing breeding and nonbreeding shorebirds. Using this method, we trapped 50 Piping Plovers (Charadrius melodus), 2258 Snowy Plovers (C. alexandrinus), 38 Killdeers (C. vociferus), and 64 Dunlins (Calidris alpina) in the western and southern United States. The trap was lightweight, making it easy to transport and set up. It was effective on unvegetated substrates at both …

India's Wto Challenge To Drug Enforcement Conditions In The European Community Generalized System Of Preferences: A Little Known Case With Major Repercussions For "Political" Conditionality In Us Trade Policy, Robert L. Howse Jan 2003

India's Wto Challenge To Drug Enforcement Conditions In The European Community Generalized System Of Preferences: A Little Known Case With Major Repercussions For "Political" Conditionality In Us Trade Policy, Robert L. Howse

Faculty Articles

The use of trade sanctions for broad foreign policy purposes has been a matter of longstanding controversy in the US. Apart from questioning the effectiveness of such sanctions, and pointing out that they may have innocent victims, free traders often claim that sanctions violate the rules of the WTO. Here, Howse details a case brought by India to the WTO dispute mechanism, which is against the European Community (EC) that originally attacked conditions relating to the environment, labor rights, and drug enforcement.

The "Necessary" History Of Property And Liberty, Richard A. Epstein Jan 2003

The "Necessary" History Of Property And Liberty, Richard A. Epstein

Faculty Articles

In this Foreword I wish to look at the question of takings and economic liberties from what I like to call, only half-facetiously, "necessary history." The purpose of this exercise is to show that there are certain powerful principles to which any conscientious application of constitutional discourse or doctrine must turn if it is to meet the minimum standards of intellectual coherence and practical common sense. In my view, this form of history is not clause-bound in any strict sense of the term, but rather rests on the broader considerations of the proper relationship between an individual and the state, …

Mediated Popular Constitutionalism, Barry Friedman Jan 2003

Mediated Popular Constitutionalism, Barry Friedman

Faculty Articles

At present many theorists advocate some version of popular constitutionalism. Although commentators differ, and not all theories are well-defined, the central idea is that constitutional meaning should reflect popular understandings. This paper explores the relationship between popular opinion and judicial review, with special attention to the social science literature that bears upon the topic. In light of that literature, this paper argues that we have a system of popular constitutionalism that is mediated through politics and media coverage of the courts. The paper begins with a sketch of a normative argument in which popular opinion is relevant to the exercise …
