Dr. Sajid was invited to visit the Faculdade de Ciências Agrárias e Veterinárias da UNESP, campus de Jaboticabal, to participate as collaborator in discussions of two studies FAPESP 2013 / 20340-0 " Diets with different protein and carbohydrate ratios for cats: effects on energy and protein metabolism and methods to evaluate energy expenditure", and the project executed by Master's Degree…
Cats are carnivores with a high requirement for nitrogen and amino acids Starch digestion and metabolism of these animais has been studied, however important aspects are not completely understood, especially the effects of protein to starch ratios on feline energy and protein metabolism. This is important to promote long-term health benefits and as a potential tool to prevent obesity deve…
Gats are carnivore animals, with high protein requirements. Carbohydrate metabolism and use by cats has been studied, but several aspects remain unknown. The present study will evaluate the consumption of diets with different proportions of protein and carbohydrates over the energy and protein metabolism, and oxalate formation and urinary excretion. Additionally, methods for energy requir…

Dogs spend a daily amount of energy to maintain their organic functions, being extremely important for its development and maintenance. The lack or excess energy can result in worrying situations, leading to possible malnutrition or obesity, respectively, presenting critical during growth when inadequate. Therefore, knowledge about thedaily energy expenditure (GE) is necessary, especially…
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is linked to polyuria, polydipsia, proteinuria and cachexia. Cachexia can be described as loss of lean body mass caused by disease and, in dogs with CKD, comes from protein catabolism, which occurs when the energy intake is not sufficient. An excess in protein intake in the animal diet may exacerbate the uremia signs of CKD, whereas an inefficient intake will …
Periodontal disease is an inflammatory disease that affects more than 60% of population of dogs and cats, bringing local and systemic consequences. Given this, the objectiveof the present study is to evaluate and compare the effects of including specific health additivesoral in extruded dog food. A control ration without additives will be formulated and based onFrom this the experimental …
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in dogs may cause hyperphosphatemia, proteinuria, and water loss through urine. Inadequate calorie consumption can result in muscle protein catabolism (cachexia) as an energy source, and it is important to ensure an adequate intake of protein in the diet, avoiding excess to prevent uremia clinical signs. However, the energy and protein requirements of dogs wit…
Highly available inorganic sources of phosphorus (P) might induced increased postprandial serum P concentration, stimulating the secretion of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and parathyroid hormone (PTH), resulting in increased renal P excretion. Concerns exist about the implications of these mechanisms for kidney health. Phosphoric acid is a common source of soluble P included in c…
Currently, protein sources in cat food are mostly of animal origin, but for sustainability, cost, and nutritional reasons, vegetable sources are included as part of the supply of amino acids. Thus, the goal of this study will be to evaluate the effects of replacing chicken viscera flour (FVF) with concentrated soy protein (CS), corn gluten (GM), and wheat gluten (GT) in diets for cats, on…

The objective of the Research Internship Abroad (BEPE) is to continue the research conducted in Brazil. Given the complexity and diversity of the results generated, the opportunity to share them with another researcher in the field is essential to promote better interpretation and enrich the research. This is particularly relevant for renal health analyses, an area that has been minimally…
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with polyuria, polydipsia, proteinuria, and cachexia, the latter being a loss of muscle mass associated with the disease caused by protein catabolism. Insufficient protein intake can contribute to the development of cachexia, reducing the patient's survival. However, excessive dietary protein intake can worsen the uremic condition of CKD. Current…
The objective of the Research Internship Abroad (BEPE) is to continue the research carried out in Brazil. Considering the complexity and diversity of results that were generated by this study, the opportunity to share these data with another researcher is important, allowing a better interpretation and enrichment of the research. This might be especially important for the fecal microbiome…
The aims of this study will be to verify the influence of thermal energy in dog food by evaluating the parameters of feed extrusion process on the physical characteristics of the kibble. After mixing and grinding the ingredients, diets will be produced adding six amounts of steam in the conditioner. Water input during extrusion will compensate the greater or lesser injection of steam, how…
