Abstract The effect of modified proprietary poultry feed on cholesterol excretion in laying birds was evaluated. The study sort to lower the cholesterol content of eggs at the point of their physiological formation via a modification of the proprietary feed fed to laying poultry birds. This was with a view to lower the net cholesterol content in their eggs, thereby lowering the cholesterol levels available in such eggs for intake upon consumption. A 20% rice bran modification of the proprietary feed was made. Animal subjects were divided into experimental and control groups and the mean total cholesterol in their faecal droppings where determined before and after varying their feeding programs. Whereas the experimental group was fed with the modified feed, the control group was maintained on the unmodified feed. Enzymatic colorimetric method was used for the determination of mean total cholesterol in the dried faecal droppings of each group of birds under investigation. The results showed that the mean total cholesterol excretion before and after the modified feed regimen were 5.97±0.16 mg/g and 9.99±0.47 mg/g respectively and were found to be significantly different when compared using a t-test at p > 0.05 and 49 degree of freedom The results also showed that the modified proprietary poultry feed increased total cholesterol excretion in the faecal droppings of laying birds fed with the modified feed by 67.3%, and this was found to be statistically significant at p > 0.05. Hence, a 20% rice-bran modification of the proprietary feed yields a modified feed with a proven potency in elevating total cholesterol excretion while producing no drastic deviation from the proximate composition of the unmodified proprietary feed and is thus likely to have no adverse effect on the productivity of laying birds.

The purpose of study were to find the optimum ratio of wheat flour with red rice bran to produce the best characteristics of dry noodle. The Completely Randomized Design was used in the research with treatment that is the ratio of flour with red rice bran which consist of 6 levels: 100%:0%; 95%:5%; 90%:10%; 85%:15%; 80%:20%; 75%:25%. The treatment was repeated 3 times to obtain 18 units of experiment. The data obtained were analyzed by variance and if the treatment had an effect on the observed variable then continued with Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) test. The ratio of flour to red rice bran significantly influenced moisture, ash , fat, protein, carbohydrate, curde fiber content, inhibitor concentration (IC50), water absorption, color (scoring test), flavor (hedonic test), texture (hedonic test and scoring), taste (hedonic test) as well as overall acceptance (hedonic test) dry noodle.The ratio of wheat flour and red rice bran flour  (80%:20%) produces dry noodle with the best characteristics namely: 10.67% moisture content, ash content  2.91%, 1.09% fat content, 13.52% protein content, 71.80 % carbohydrate content, 4.15% crude fiber content, IC50 149.35 mg/ml, water absorption 223.23%, dark red color and rather liked color, rather liked flavor, elastic and rather liked texture, rather liked taste and rather liked overall acceptability.

A study on the effects of artificial feeds on growth and production of fishes along with some limnological conditions were conducted in polyculture system. Species of Indian major carp (Cirrhinus mrigala) and exotic fishes (Hypophthalmicthys molitrix and Oreochromis niloticus) were stocked in six ponds under two treatments, each with three replications. Stocking rate in both treatments was 100 fish per decimal at the ratio of silver carp: tilapia: mrigal = 2: 2: 1. Fertilization and artificial feeds were given in Ttreatment 1 (T1) and only fertilization was done in Treatment 2 (T2). Wheat bran, rice bran and soybean meal were given daily as artificial feed in T1 in the ratio of wheat bran: rice bran: soybean meal = 2: 2: 1 (by wt). Urea, T.S.P and cow dung were applied fortnightly at the rate of 60 g deci-1, 90 g deci-1 and 2 kg deci-1 respectively. Water temperature, transparency, pH, dissolved oxygen, free CO2, total alkalinity, PO4-P and NO3-N were determined fortnightly and phytoplankton and zooplankton were studied fortnightly. These limnological conditions were more or less similar in the ponds under two treatments and were within suitable ranges. Calculated gross and net yields of fish were 16.56 and 12.48 ton ha-1 respectively in case of fertilization and artificial feeding application (T1) and 9.99 and 5.91 ton ha-1 respectively in case of only fertilization (T2). Application of artificial feed in T1 significantly increased the growth and production of fish more than two times which indicates that artificial feeding in polyculture is very useful for increasing fish production.

Efficacy of three different substrates viz., rice bran, wheat bran, grass pea bran and their combinations with mustard oilcake (MOC) were tested to formulate a suitable Trichoderma harzianum based bio-fungicide for controlling seedling disease of brinjal caused by Rhizoctonia solani in tray soil as well as in seedbed soil under net house condition of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Gazipur during 2010 to 2014. The results of three years experiments revealed that T. harzianum bio-fungicides formulated in five different combinations of substrates viz., (1) rice bran + wheat bran, (2) rice bran + mustard oilcake (MOC) (3) rice bran + grasspea bran, (4) rice bran + wheat bran + MOC and (5) rice bran + grasspea bran +MOC were equally effective to control the soil borne seedling disease of brinjal caused by Rhizoctonia solani in tray soil and seedbed condition. In addition, vegetative growth of brinjal seedlings viz., shoot length, shoot weight, root length and root weight were enhanced significantly by the T. harzianum bio-fungicides in R. solani inoculated seedbed condition.Bangladesh J.
