Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this, research was based on animal production science in a poultry farm, and focuses on safe animal feed, nutrition, preventing disease and best welfare. It was identified new morphological aspects of digestive organs with compare to functional supplementation for chickens, such as lactobacillus, charcoal powder and vinegar to improve growing ratio. Moreover, previous research indicated that Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic imaging was elucidated the inflammation and localization of collagen in bone maturation. Furthermore, we focused on Amide l (C=O) peak on FT-IR, which was related crystallization with maturation of collagen, and evaluated the nutrient absorption by FT-IR, MALDI-TOF MS. According to our results of Amide l mapping was suggested that interactions may be related with prolonged cell life on the villus apical surface. Therefore, the FT-IR and also MALDI-TOF MS imaging methods will be a useful tool for animal production science.
