Iodised oil is traditionally based on the fatty acids (FAs) of the poppyseed, an expensive commodity. An equipotent but cheaper vehicle would be welcome. Iodination of rapeseed oil yields a product (Brassiodol) with a total iodine content of 376 mg/mL. Brassiodol has been compared with the
Maintaining adult quails and fowls on diets containing rapeseed meal resulted in increased thyroid weight; this increase was greatest when ground, full-fat rapeseed was included in the ration. Thyroids of quails showed a relatively much greater enlargement than those of fowls. A biometric method
This study was to investigate the deposition and elimination of glucosinolate metabolites including 5-vinyl-1,3-oxazolidine-2-thione (5-VOT) and thiocyanate ion (SCN-) derived from rapeseed meal (RSM) in hen eggs. During 12 weeks accumulation phase, the serum triiodothyronine, thyronine, blood urea
In the experiment, 2 x 12 growing pigs received 19 or 6.7 mmol glucosinolates + aglucones/kg feed via conventional rapeseed meal (RSM) or RSM of a newly bred variety. These pigs and 24 littermates pair fed with a soya bean meal (SBM) diet were subdivided in groups of 4 animals each. Their diet
In a goose flock consisting of 2300 birds of 6 months of age severe goitre was diagnosed. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of naturally occurring goitre in geese, which is not related to the feeding of rapeseed meal. The major pathological findings included retarded growth and
Rapeseed presscake meal (15% in the ration) of 0-varieties or a control diet (soybean meal instead of rapeseed presscake meal) was fed without or with thyroxine for 9-10 wk to growing pigs. Pigs fed rapeseed presscake meal developed hyperplastic goiter. Blood serum free thyroxine concentrations in
The occurrence of liver haemorrhages was compared when diets containing 30 or 40 per cent rapeseed meal (RSM) or 30 per cent soybean meal (SBM), with and without experimental additives, were fed to in-lay hens of a commercial egg-producing strain for 12 weeks. The incidence of haemorrhages was
Studies were made with a total of 272 fattening pigs. Iodine deficiency both in rations of soya bean meal and rape seed meal increased the weight of the thyroid gland and the height of the epithelium cells and significantly reduced the T4 and T3 level in the serum. Iodine supplements to the rape
The influence of dietary fibre on the biological effects of glucosinolates was investigated in gnotobiotic rats harbouring a human whole faecal flora. Animals were fed for 6 wk with diets containing 12% rapeseed meal (RSM) supplemented or not supplemented with 10% inulin (INL) or oat fibre. Both
