“…The analysed V+C content imply that studied FB (cv. 'Kontu') was a V+C containing cultivar, considering that in the study of Jezierny et al (2010) V+C content in low V+C genotype was 0.3 g kg -1 DM. In the present study, the difference in V+C content between unprocessed and expander-processed FB was non-existent.…”

“…Because soybean meal (SBM) is a by-product of oil extraction from soybeans, the cost of SBM depends on the price of agricultural commodities on the world market. These prices are influenced by changes in economic growth, consumer product preferences, and weather conditions (Jezierny et al 2010). Soybean prices are highly volatile, but an upward trend is detectable.…”

The study was conducted to evaluate an appropriate inclusion level of locally produced unprocessed or expander-processed coloured flowered faba bean (FB) (cv. 'Kontu') seeds in diets for laying hens. Egg production and egg quality variables were determined with 560 hens (Lohmann Selected Leghorn, LSL Classic) in a 40-week continued experiment. The hens were fed one of the five diets containing soybean meal as the main protein source. A diet without FB was served as a control diet. Both unprocessed and expander-processed FB was tested either in proportions of 50 g kg -1 or 100 g kg -1 in the diet. Faba bean inclusion (control vs. FB diets) had no effect on the egg production rate, egg mass production, feed consumption, or feed conversion ratio, but it decreased egg weight (p<0.05). Dietary FB inclusion tended to increase the mortality of the hens (p<0.10). Faba bean processing had no effects on egg production parameters or hen mortality. Daily egg mass production decreased and feed conversion ratio increased when FB proportion increased (from 50 to 100 g kg -1 , p<0.05). Faba bean inclusion had no effects on egg exterior quality. It can be concluded that 50 g kg -1 of the FB studied (cv. 'Kontu') can be used in the diets of laying hens (LSL Classic) without negative effects on production performance or livability.

“…Despite this development, the usefulness of lupins in poultry diets remains limited because of the uncertainty of their nutritional value and the presence of antinutritional factors, such as non-starch polysaccharides (NSP), tannins and protease inhibitors, which can lower nutrient digestibility and performance (Jezierny et al, 2010). It is also known that the level of anti-nutritional factors in grain legumes varies depending on the cultivar (Gatel, 1994).…”

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of three cultivars (Promore, Kiev mutant and Ultra) of white lupins (Lupinus albus L.) for broilers. In experiment 1, the apparent metabolisable energy (AME) and ileal amino acid digestibility coefficients of the three cultivars were determined. The cultivar effects were significant (P , 0.05) for AME, but the ileal amino acid digestibility coefficients were similar (P . 0.05) between cultivars. The AME value of Ultra cultivar was lower (P , 0.05) than those of Promore and Kiev mutant cultivars. In Experiment 2, using the AME and ileal digestible amino acid values determined in Experiment 1, diets containing 200 g/kg of lupin were formulated and the effects of feeding these diets on performance, digestive tract development and excreta quality of broiler starters were investigated. Weight gain, feed intake and feed per gain of broilers fed diets containing white lupins were similar (P . 0.05) to those fed the maize-soybean meal diet. The performance of birds fed diets containing different cultivars of white lupins was similar (P . 0.05). Several digestive tract parameters were influenced by the dietary inclusion of white lupins. In particular, the relative liver weight and the relative empty weights of small intestine and caeca in birds fed diets containing white lupins were higher (P , 0.05) than those fed the maize-soybean meal diet. No differences (P . 0.05) were observed in the excreta quality scores between the birds fed the maize-soybean meal diet and those fed diets containing white lupins.

“…More over, it contains bioactive substances including phenol compounds that exert metabolic effect in human and animals. Germination is a simple and inexpensive treatment that naturally increases digestibility of the protein and decreases anti-nutritional factors such as phytates and trapsin inhibitors (Jezierny, 2010). Meal No.3 contains spinach, which has a high nutritional value and is extremely rich in antioxidants.…”

This study was done to evaluate the safety and health value of five meals formulated for school children. The constituents used for formulation of these meals were a group of vegetables and legumes such as spinach, cauliflower, carrot, tomato, germinated broad beans, soybean, chickpea, peanut, sesame in addition to whey protein and wheat germ. The evaluation was done through a feeding experiment using rats. Growth parameters such as body weight, and food efficiency ratio proved the high nutritional value of these meals. Assessment of organs function showed that no change in the activities of AST, ALT and γ Glutamyl Transpeptidase occurred indicating normal liver function. The parameters of the kidney function namely the concentration of plasma uric acid, urea and creatinine were all having normal values indicating normal kidney function. The oxidation state of the body is in the positive state with normal activity of each of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase together with low value of plasma malondialdhyde. Rats fed on each of these meals had higher plasma total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and normal triglycerides. The significance of these findings was discussed the conclusion is that these meals are of high nutritional value, safe with regard to the liver and kidney functions, promote antioxidant defense against free radicals and with no serious hazards regarding lipid disorders. This makes such meals worth to be consumed by children alternate to fast food that can exert health problems.
