Condensed Fish Solubles as a Supplement for Corn and Soybean Oil Meal Chick Rations ,

Methionine, Choline, Betaine and Fish Products in a Simplified Ration ,

“…However, with the female chicken optimum growth was reached at the 0.5 per cent level. These results are in agreement with previous observations by Mishler, Carrick and Hauge (1948), which indicated that males responded more favorably than females to increased levels of fish solubles. A taste test was conducted to determine whether a fishy flavor had been imparted to the flesh of chickens fed 4.0 percent of condensed fish solubles (Lot 19) or 3.0 percent of semi-solid fish product (Lot 11).…”

“…(Lot 13); a second sample from the same barrel was stored for a year in a garage (Lot 14); and a third sample was from a new supply (Lot 15), which was the same as that used in other lots in this trial. Since the work ofMishler et al (1948) had indicated that male and female chickens responded differently to additions of fish solubles, both sexes of chickens were used. The variables in the rations and the results are given inTable 2.Trial III.…”

Fish Meal and the Response of Chicks to Antibiotics

“…For some years, evidence has been accumulating which indicated that certain feed ingredients such as fish meal, fish solubles, liver, dried milk, dried whey, dried distillers' solubles, and dried brewers' yeast contained an unidentified growth factor or factors required by chicks and poults- Berry et al (1943Berry et al ( , 1945, Bird et al (1948), Brant and Carver (1947), Combs et al (1948), Emerson et al (1949), Hammond and Titus (1944), Heuser et al (1946a,b), Hill (1948), Hill and Van Poucke (1947), Johnson et al (1942), McGinnis et al (1947), Mishler et al (1947Mishler et al ( , 1948, Nichol et al (1947), Novak et al (1947), Robblee et al (1947), Schumacher et al (1940), Synold et al (1943) and others. However these investigations were carried out prior to the identification of vitamin B12, which complicates the interpretation of the results.…”

Antibiotic and Vitamin B12 Supplements as Related to the Crude Protein Level of Bobwhite Quail Diets ,

“…Berry el al. (1945) and Mishler et al (1948) demonstrated the supplementary action of condensed fish solubles in soybean oil meal rations for chickens and attributed the effects to unidentified factors. One of these factors has been shown to be vitamin B i2 by Ott et al (1948) and Nichol et al (1949) in their reports that crystalline vitamin Bi 2 would replace the animal protein factor activity of crude sources of vitamin Bi 2 , one of which is condensed fish solubles.…”
