Wet lab, protein and amino acids analyzer, Small Animal Research Facility, used for poultry research involving broiler chickens or Leghorn type pullets, equipped with eight Alternative Design Super Brooders batteries which provides optimal condition for nutritional research
Other
Alternative feed ingredients, despite of the high fiber content, are often a valuable source of protein for monogastric animals. My research focus on improvement of the nutritive value of various feedstuffs using the enzyme technology; on determination of amino acid composition and their digestibility, and on the more precise formulation of diet for poultry. I research the nutritive value of protein concentrates for monogastric animals.

We specialize in determining both the content and digestibility of protein and amino acids in foods, food ingredients and feeds, using both in vitro and in vivo assays. We can provide official in vivo measures of PDCAAS and PER for protein content claim substantiation. We have a Near Infrared Spectroscopy suite to measure the amino acid content of Canadian crops, and have established calibration equations for peas, lentils, canola, and soybean.
We utilized specialized housing systems to determine the impact of diet on egg quality, nutrient flow, and bird health as it relates to laying hens and sustainable egg production.

Protein Food Processing
We study the impact of processing on the protein quality of food/feed ingredients and whole crops. Our Protein Foods Innovation Team can assist you with exploring the impact of milling, protein fractionation, protein isolation, thermal and non-thermal processing technologies on the nutritional and techno functional properties of proteins.
Assessment of the Safety and Nutritional Value of Protein Foods
Determining the protein quality of ingredients and foods allows for the assessment of the potential to make protein content claims on finished food products. Our team has years of experience in determining protein quality and guiding industry stakeholders through regulatory pitfalls involved in substantiating protein content claims.
