Studies were carried out to determine the effects of the toxic principle linamarin, a cyanogenic glucoside, in a diet containing cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in the form of gari fed to growing dogs for 14 weeks. There were three groups of dogs, each comprising six animals. One group was fed on
Growing dogs were divided into three groups and were fed on a control (rice) diet, a diet in which cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz; gari) was used as the carbohydrate source, and the rice diet to which cyanide (equivalent to that present in gari) was added. Each group consumed its diet for 14
Cyanogenic glycosides, which release cyanide, are present in several plant species of high importance for animal production, such as cassava and sorghum. Several human neurological diseases have been associated with chronic cyanide exposure. On the other hand, these effects in ruminants are almost
Thermoplastic starch (TPS) was prepared by melt-mixing cassava starch with glycerol. Polyethylene (PE), polyethylene-grafted-maleic anhydride (PE-MAH) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) solutions at 2% (w/v) were used to coat TPS using the dip coating process. The tensile strength of TPS increased
