The overlooked cohort? – Improving the taught postgraduate student experience in higher education (2019)
Journal Article
Coneyworth, L., Jessop, R., Maden, P., & White, G. (2020). The overlooked cohort? – Improving the taught postgraduate student experience in higher education. Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 57(3), 262-273. https://doi.org/10.1080/14703297.2019.1617184

Taught postgraduate students in the UK have a limited timeframe for study, with most full-time courses requiring intense scholarship, typically over a 12-month period. Many of these students face challenges and concerns with the transition from under...

Rapeseed napin and cruciferin are readily digested by poultry (2016)
Journal Article
Kasprzak, M., Houdijk, J., Liddell, S., Davis, K., Olukosi, O., Kightley, S., …Wiseman, J. (2017). Rapeseed napin and cruciferin are readily digested by poultry. Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, 101(4), 658-666. https://doi.org/10.1111/jpn.12576

Rapeseed proteins have been considered as being poorly digestible in the gut of non-ruminants. The aim of the study was to assess the digestibility of napin and cruciferin in ileal digesta of broiler chickens, testing sixteen samples of rapeseed co-p...

Effects of rapeseed variety and oil extraction method on the content and ileal digestibility of crude protein and amino acids in rapeseed cake and softly processed rapeseed meal fed to broiler chickens (2016)
Journal Article
Kasprzak, M., Houdijk, J., Kightley, S., Olukosi, O., White, G., Carre, P., & Wiseman, J. (2016). Effects of rapeseed variety and oil extraction method on the content and ileal digestibility of crude protein and amino acids in rapeseed cake and softly processed rapeseed meal fed to broiler chickens. Animal Feed Science and Technology, 213, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2016.01.002

We examined the effects of rapeseed variety and oil extraction method on crude protein (CP) and amino acid (AA) content in rapeseed co-products, and determined their coefficient of apparent (AID) and standardised ileal digestibility (SID) in broiler...

Replacement of soya bean meal with peas and faba beans in growing/finishing pig diets: Effect on performance, carcass composition and nutrient excretion (2015)
Journal Article
Houdijk, J., White, G., White, G. A., Smith, L., Houdijk, J., Homer, D., …Wiseman, J. (2015). Replacement of soya bean meal with peas and faba beans in growing/finishing pig diets: Effect on performance, carcass composition and nutrient excretion. Animal Feed Science and Technology, 209, 202-210. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2015.08.005

There is now an increasing debate about the viability of using temperate-grown legumes in pig diets as a potential replacement for imported soya bean meal (SBM) and this is due to food security, sustainability and environmental concerns. Two trials w... Read More about Replacement of soya bean meal with peas and faba beans in growing/finishing pig diets: Effect on performance, carcass composition and nutrient excretion.

Assessment of caecal parameters in layer hens fed on diets containing wheat distillers dried grains with solubles (2015)
Journal Article
White, G. A., Richards, P. J., Wu, S., Mellits, K. H., & Wiseman, J. (2015). Assessment of caecal parameters in layer hens fed on diets containing wheat distillers dried grains with solubles. British Poultry Science, 56(4), 494-502. https://doi.org/10.1080/00071668.2015.1064859

There is much interest in quantifying the nutritional value of UK wheat distillers dried grains with solubles (W-DDGS) for livestock species. A study was designed to evaluate caecal parameters (pH, short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and bacterial divers...

Influence of the in vivo method and basal dietary ingredients employed in the determination of the amino acid digestibility of wheat distillers dried grains with solubles in broilers (2014)
Journal Article
O'Neill, H. M., White, G. A., Li, D., Bedford, M. R., Htoo, J. K., & Wiseman, J. (2014). Influence of the in vivo method and basal dietary ingredients employed in the determination of the amino acid digestibility of wheat distillers dried grains with solubles in broilers. Poultry Science, 93(5), 1178-1185. https://doi.org/10.3382/ps.2013-03578

As distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) become increasingly available, it is important to determine their nutritional value for precise feed formulation. The accurate determination of digestibility is crucial, and it is known that the methods...
