FOOD SAFETY FEED CONVERSION RATIO
"... The cost of feed is about 70-80 percent of the total cost of broiler production. It is also a route for administration of antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs), which effect productivity. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) is one of the key measures of cost of production. 1 It indicates the amount of feed con ..."

The Power of the Pill: Oral Contraceptives and Women’s Career and Marriage Decisions.” Working Paper no.
, 2000
"... The fraction of U.S. college graduate women entering professional programs increased substantially just after 1970, and the age at first marriage among all U.S. college graduate women began to soar around the same year. We explore the relationship between these two changes and the diffusion of the ..."

of the birth control pill ("the pill") among young, unmarried college graduate women. Although the pill was approved in 1960 by the Food and Drug Administration and spread rapidly among married women, it did not diffuse among young, single women until the late 1960s after state law changes reduced
The effect of network topology on the spread of epidemics
- IN IEEE INFOCOM
, 2005
"... Many network phenomena are well modeled as spreads of epidemics through a network. Prominent examples include the spread of worms and email viruses, and, more generally, faults. Many types of information dissemination can also be modeled as spreads of epidemics. In this paper we address the question ..."

lifetime is of order log n, where n is the number of nodes. Conversely, if this ratio is bigger than a generalization of the isoperimetric constant of the graph, then the mean epidemic lifetime is of order � Ò�, for a positive constant �. We apply these results to several network topologies including
517 Food conversion is transiently affected during 4-week chronic administration of melanocortin agonist and antagonist in rats
"... The central melanocortin system is involved in the regulation of food intake and body weight. In this study, we investigated the effect of a 4-week intracerebroventricular infusion of the melanocortin receptor agonist MT-II and the selective melanocortin-4 receptor antagonist HS024 on food intake an ..."

. The HS024 treatment caused hyperphagia and development of obesity during the entire period. Extensive accumulations of fat and a sixfold increase in leptin levels were observed in the HS024treated rats, as compared with controls, after the 4-week period. Food conversion ratio, defined as body weight
Effect of High Temperature on Survival, Growth and Feed Conversion Ratio of Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus
"... This study was conducted to investigate the effect of high water temperature on survival and growth performance of Nile tilapia. Two age groups of female Nile tilapia (9 and 50 days after hatching) were reared at 27, 32, 35 and 37°C water temperatures for 45-60 days. At the end of treatment, the mea ..."

, the mean survival, total weight, total length, daily growth rate and food conversion ratio of both age groups of fishes were significantly reduced at 35 and 37°C compared to 27 and 32°C (p<0.05). It was concluded that water temperature ranging from 27-32°C seemed to be the most effective for rearing
Effects of Dietary Protein and Lipid Levels on Growth and Body Composition of Silver Dollar (Metynnis schreitmuelleri) Fry
, 2007
"... Abstract The aims of this study were to determine the effects of different levels of protein and lipid on the growth and body composition of fry of the silver dollar, Metynnis schreitmuelleri (Ahl). The fry were first fed diets containing 25, 35, 45, or 55% protein to determine the optimum protein ..."

level. The best growth, body composition, protein efficiency ratio, and food conversion ratio were obtained with the 35% protein diet. The fry were next fed diets containing 35% protein and 0, 3, 6, 9, or 12% lipid. The best growth, body composition, protein efficiency ratio, and food conversion ratio
Correlated responses for lipogenesis and adipose tissue cellularity in chickens selected for body weight gain, food consumption, and food conversion efficiency. Poultry Sci
, 1982
"... ABSTRACT Cellularity of the abdominal fat pad and lipogenesis in the liver were studied in 9-week-old chickens after eight generations of selection for increased body weight gain (line W), increased food consumption (Line F), decreased food conversion ratio (line E), or at random (line C). The avera ..."

THE INFLUENCE OF HOUSING ON THE PERFORMANCE OF GROWING PIGS IN A SUB-TROPICAL ENVIRONMENT
"... The growth and efficiency of food conversion of growing pigs was compared under different housing conditions during summer in a sub-tropical area. Two groups of five pigs were housed under small iron shelters where tempera-tures ranged from a minimum of 11 “C to a maximum of 43°C. From approximately ..."

approximately 20 to 89 kg, their average daily gain was 558 g and the food conversion ratio was 3.23: 1. Two similar groups of pigs were housed in partly insulated pens where tempera-tures ranged from a minimum of 13 “C to a maximum of 39’C. Over the same weight range, they had an average daily gain of 636 g

"... Laminar flow and heat transfer in different protruding-edged plate systems are modelled and analyzed in the present work. These include the Parallel Flow (PF) and the Counter Flow (CF) pro-truding-edgedplate exchangers as well as those systems being subjected to Constant Wall Tempera-ture (CWT) and ..."

difference methods. Accurate correlations for various flow and heat transfer parameters are obtained. It is found that there are specific power-law in-dices that maximize the heat transfer in both PF and CF systems. The maximum reported en-hancement ratios are 1.075 and 1.109 for the PF and CF systems
