RIULS

Repository of Iasi University of Life Sciences, ROMANIA

Welcome to RIULS!

The mission of the University’s institutional repository is to manage, preserve and disseminate, in open access, the academic and institutional output of the university’s academic community. It also aims to promote values and personalities belonging to Romanian agricultural science, by storing digitized versions of rare books and manuscripts from its collections.

The repository is part of the international movement known as open science, which promotes free access to scientific literature. This translates into maximized impact of the work carried out by researchers, contribution to improving access to knowledge, increased visibility of the institution through the works of its authors and improvement of its search engine ranking.

All documents deposited in the repository receive a unique and persistent identifier called a Handle, thus guaranteeing perpetual access to scientific output through permanent links.

RIULS Repository of Iași University of Life Sciences is indexed in Duraspace, OpenDOAR,CORE,Google Scholar,BASE (Bielefeld Academic Search Engine) and ROAR (Registry of Open Access Repositories), global Directories of Open Access Repositories.

Study regarding the percentage of english thoroughbred blood in the last five generations for the best dressage horses in the world
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2019) Spulber, Malina-Carina; Gîlcă, I.
With a typical velocity constitution, the English Thoroughbred stallion is the undisputed king of the hippodrome. In many breeding areas the special role for Thoroughbred stallions was to lighten and to make more athletic traditional horses used in agriculture. For this research we examine the first 100 dressage horses from FEI&WBFSH World Ranking List for Dressage Horses year 2017, divided in 4 groups for breed variable, and 3 groups for sex, height and age variables. There still is a percentage of English Thoroughbred blood in the last five generations for the best dressage horses in the world, with decreasing trend. In conclusion we can say that the modern dressage horse breed requires Thoroughbred blood also in the future, but they will not enjoy a privileged status. They will be selected for breed improvement, only stallions who will have the skills required for international training competitions.

The effect of dietary crude fibre level on the final body weight, carcass weight, gizzard weight and length of intestine in Sentul chicken
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2019) Widjastuti, Tuti; Abun; Tanwiriah, Wiwin
The research was held to find out of the effects of level crude fiber in the ration on the carcass weight, gizzard weight and length of intestine at sentul chicken. The research used 100 day old Sentul chickens. Crude fiber treatments in the ration were 6% (R1), 8% (R2), 10% (R3), and 12% (R4).The method used Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with five treatments and where each treatment was repeated five times and each repeated consist of five native chicks. Variable analyses were carcass weight, gizzard weight and the length of intestine. The research showed that from 6% to 8% crude fibre in the ration give the optimal results on the carcass weight, gizzard weight and the length of intestine. At 10-12% crude fibre in the ration, carcass weight was decrease, gizzard weight and the length of intestine was increase. The conclusion that the maximum crude fiber level needed in Sentul chicken rations was 8 %.

Applying biosecurity measures to a poultry unit
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2019) Leonte, Doina; Leonte, Constantin; Gîlcă, Valerica
Solving welfare problems requires establishing clear lines of communication between society, farmers, researchers and animals. For the elaboration of this paper we analyzed how the principles regarding welfare of hen broilers in FermaDor Iași poultry unit are applied: adequate nutrition, adequate shelter, proper behavior, good health. The study concluded that all animal welfare principles have been applied and respected in the establishment. The amount of water consumed by chickens is between their physiological requirements, namely 1.6 - 2 times more than the consumption of fodder, a bird in the given case at the age of 35 days consuming 338 g / water compared to 214 g /fodder. The combined granulated feed administered to the chickens is balanced in all nutritional aspects. It is distributed through an automatic spiral line system, organized in 4 feed lines with 586 feeders / hall, distributing a nourishing for 66 chickens. An optimal feeding front is provided for the whole herd of birds. Lighting in the study farm has an intensity of 30 lux in the first 7days of the chickens and decreases to 5 lux in the growing and finishing period. Treatments in the FermaDor are ensured by vaccinating from day 7 and by administering of a drug or feed additive substances through feed and water. The density of the chickens in the hall is from 18.29 to 17.62 chicken/m2 or 42 kg/ m2 depopulation, taking into account mortality. Trained staff capable of working has exemplary behavior and attitude towards raised birds

Study regarding application of the FMEA method within a food safety management system
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2019) Pop, Cecilia; Frunză, Gabriela; Ciobanu, Marius-Mihai
The paper aims the study of application of FMEA (Failure modes and effects analysis) method in a food safety management system for the manufacturing of an assortment of raw-dried salami. The working methodology consisted in the collection and processing of information based on practical experience and provided by food industry specialists, as well as those from the literature related to similar studies. Among the steps and activities required to apply the FMEA method is distinguished, as specificity, the calculation of Risk Priority Number (RPN) depending on the probability of occurrence of a potential hazard for food safety, the severity (seriousness) of consequences of its manifestation to the consumer and the probability of its detection. RPN was determined for each category of identified potential hazards (physical, chemical and biological) at all stages of the technological flow. The highest RPN values (over 100 points) were determined for the cold smoking (288), drying-ripening (252), reception (252), shredding (189), storage of raw materials (180) and for leakage, strengthening of the meat (162). Through RPN, a quantitative assessment can be made of the potential food safety problems in a system, and respectively a prioritization of implementation of preventive and corrective actions. The results obtained led to the formulation of some conclusions and recommendations for improvement and enlargement FMEA applying within food safety management systems.

Nutrient balance study in a piglet diet supplemented with a mixture of fruits
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2019) Gavriş, T.; Untea, Arabela; Cornescu, Gabriela; Panaite, Tatiana; Vărzaru, Iulia; Olteanu, Margareta; Șoica, Cristina; Mihaela Sărăcilă1
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a mixture of dehydrated fruits (bilberry, blackcurrant, quince,) and essential oils (Bitter fenel fruit oil, Peppermint oil) on nutrients apparent digestibility coefficients on weaned piglets. A 4-week study on 8 piglets (18.69 ± 1.25 kg), male, castrated, half brothers, TOPIGS hybrid, randomly assigned in two groups (C and E). The piglets were housed in individual digestibility cages that allowed daily recording of ingesta and excretion, placed in a controlled microclimate hall (temperature of 22.9 ± 1.00 ° C, humidity 43.9% ± 3.37%). Both groups received diets with the same basic structure (corn, soybean meal - ME 3214 kcal/kg of feed and 18.00% CP). The diet of E group was supplemented daily with 1.65g mixture of fruits. During the experimental period, in the fourth week, a balance (5 days) was carried out to determine the apparent absorption coefficients of the nutrients. The balance parameters determined for protein, fat, ash and non nitrogen extractives substances decreased for experimental group, but the differences were not significant between groups. The same tendency was for digestibility of the amino acids, the differences being not statistically supported. The absorption coefficients of E group, for Cu, Mn, Zn decreased significantly compared to the C group. In conclusion the mixture of fruits does not improve the digestibility of nutrients, other benefits remaining to be studied.
