(proximate analysis) estimate of inorganic content of feed sample; involves igniting sample in furnace that burns all OM to CO2 and H20; residue remaining after combustion represents it

A

ash (mineral content)

21
Q

apparatus used for ash (mineral content)

A

mineral furnace

22

(proximate analysis) represents sun of remaining undetermined portions of feed and is meant to represent more digestible portions; only one determined by calculation; formula is = 100 - (moisture+ash+crude protein+crude fat+crude fiber)

A

Nitrogen-free extract

23

(microbial evaluation / microbiological assay) used to determine presence of salmonella spp. and mycotoxin-producing fungi (aspergillus and fusarium in feeds)

A

microbiological tests

24
Q

(microbial evaluation / microbiological assay) most widespread and best known of all mycotoxins

A

aflatoxins

25
Q

(microbial evaluation / microbiological assay) in feeds may cause poor growth rate, poor feed deficiency, liver diseases, increased mortality, pale egg yolk color, and reduced egg shell strength

A

mycotoxins

26
Q

in a routine microbiological test, the first analytical procedure is the __________________ that does not distinguish the types of mycotoxins; used for a quick determination to see whether the problem exists

A

pass / fail test

27
