“…As CBC increased, other protein sources like groundnut cake, blood meal and palm kernel meal decreased thereby changing the amino acid balance and also lowering the starch content. Dale and Fuller (1980) and Donkoh et al (1988) showed that higher energy diets furnish more energy for the utilisation of protein for growth than do lower energy diets which is similar to the findings in this study. The depressed performance observed with CBC usage had been earlier reported by OwusuDomfeh (1972) and was attributed t o low palatability and presence of theobromine.…”

Odunsi, A.A. and Longe, O.G. 1995. Cocoa bean cake in poultry diets. I. Chemical composition and nutritive value of cocoa bean cake in pullet chick diets. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 7 : 91-97.Cocoa bean cake (CBC) contained 231 g kg-1 crude protein, 165 g kg-1 ether extract, 57.5 g kg-1 crude fibre, 83.7 g kg-1 ash and 22.4 g kg-1 theobromine. 180 commercial pullet starter chicks were randomly allocated to one of 6 dietary treatments consisting of control diet which contained groundnut cake as the main plant protein source and 5 other diets in which CBC supplied 50, 100, 200, 300 and 400 g kg-1 of total dietary protein. Feed and water were provided ad libitum for a period of 9 weeks. Daily feed intake and weight gain decreased a s dietary CBC protein increased. The level of CBC in the diet was strongly correlated with feed efficiency (r=0.92) and liver weight (r=O. 71) but inversely related to heart weight (mO.90) and kidney weight (m0.83). Significant differences (PcO.05) exhibited by blood characteristics showed that PCV, H b and RBC tend to decrease with increasing level of CBC. The efficiency of feed utilisation allowed CBC' to be included in chick starter diets at concentrations up to 200 g kg-1 diet.

This study aims at examining the effect of caffeine administration on growth, feed efficiency, and consumption of sea bream (Sparus aurata), reared in winter temperatures. Moreover, it is questioned whether caffeine has a central action in the brain and its effects are partly mediated via central brain mechanisms. For this, we studied the influences of caffeine treatment on the cerebral pattern of the cholinergic neurotransmission and the novel neuromodulator nitric oxide (NO), by means of acetyl-cholinesterase (AchE) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) histochemistry. Five different diets containing 0.0, 0.1, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 g caffeine kg )1 of diet were administrated to five groups of fish. Caffeine adversely affected seabream growth at a concentration higher than 1 g kg )1 diet and increased feed conversion ratio in the treatments of 2 and 5 g kg )1 (P < 0.05). The daily consumption of feeds was similar to all groups, indicating that caffeine did not influence diet palatability. AChE-and NADPH-diaphorase histochemistry showed densely labeled cells and fibers mainly in dorsal telencephalon, preoptic, pretectal, hypothalamic areas, optic tectum, reticular formation, cerebellum and motor nuclei. When compared with matched caffeine-treated animals, no differences in the histochemical pattern and cell densities of cerebral AChE and NADPH-diaphorase were found. KEY WORDS
