Bone Meal Bone meal is used as a supplement for calcium and phosphorus. The feeding of meat and bone meal to cattle contaminated with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) led to an epidemic in the British cattle population in the 1990s. Bone meal is no longer recommended as a calcium supplement because of possible presence of toxic substances, such as lead. www.pdrhealth.com /drug_info/nmdrugprofiles/nutsupdrugs/bon_0038.shtml   (564 words)

Meat and bone meal Meat and bone meal is prepared from the wastes materials associated with slaughtering operations (carcass trimmings, condemned carcasses, condemned livers, inedible offal (lungs) and bones) and also from the rendering of dead animals. The ash content of the meat and bone meal normally ranges from 28 to 36 %; calcium is 7 to 10 % and phosphorus 4.5 to 6 %. Many of the developed countries of the world has restricted the feeding of meat and bone meal and some only allow meat and bone meal derived from monogastric animals to be fed to ruminant animals and vice versa, like the USA and some of the Western European Countries. www.filadog.com /meat_and_bone_meal.htm   (942 words)

Meat and bone meal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Meat and bone meal (MBM) is a by-product of the rendering industry. Meat and bone meal has around two thirds the energy value of fossil fuels such as coal and is carbon neutral; the UK in particular widely uses meat and bone meal for the generation of renewable electricity. Meat and bone meal is increasingly used in cement kilns as an environmentally sustainable replacement for coal. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/MBM   (240 words)

bone meal steamed Bone meal has long been used by farmers and home gardeners because it stimulates healthy root development. Yes, bone meal with 1% or less nitrogen is perfectly safe to use and any bone meal with more than 1% nitrogen should be avoided.

Experts soothe worries about using bone, blood meal Safety concerns about bone meal have turned into something of an urban legend, according to Dalton Hobbs, spokesman for the Oregon Department of Agriculture, but he knows of no evidence that bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) can be contracted by inhaling bone meal dust. Parts of the cow (hooves, bones and innards) that don't end up in the grocery store for human consumption are sent to rendering facilities, where they're boiled down, ground up and made into any number of products, including bone meal and blood meal sold as plant nutrients.

Soybean Meal and Meat and Bone Meal in Diet of Growing Puppies   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15) If a diet containing soybean meal as the primary source of protein can meet the protein needs of growing puppies and when combined with corn, minerals, vitamins and fats produce satisfactory growth, more economical pet foods can be produced and larger quantities of soybean meal can be used by the pet food industry. The 30% soybean meal diet was equal in starch ditestibility and nitrogen retention to the Meat and Bone Meal diet but was lower in cellulose digestibility which is to be expected because of the soybean fiber. The soybean meal ration produced a dropping's dry matter content of 20.5% as compared with 40.5 for the meat and bone meal diet. www.ag.uiuc.edu /~stratsoy/ispob_db/lor_html/160.html   (390 words)

Poultry by-product meal is made from high pressure steam processing of clean parts of the poultry carcass, exclusive of feathers. Research at the University of Arkansas (Cabel et el., 1986) showed that added feather meal (4%- 6% in broiler rations, 7-14 days prior to slaughter and stable energy levels) resulted in significant reduction in abdominal fat (Which is objectionable to consumers) without adversely affecting growth or feed utilization. www.renderers.org /links/poultry.htm   (1845 words)

Mad Cow - France Calls For 'Immediate Moratorium' On Bone Meal In Feed Animal grounds and bone meal are considered at the root of the "mad cow" disease or bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) problem, and fears have been raised that the disease could jump species from cows. Her position was apparently contrary to that of the government of Prime Minister Lionel Jospin, which is awaiting a report from AFSSA before making a decision on the use of bone meal. A permanent ban on bone meal would cost France between three and five billion francs (457 and 762 million euros, 393 and 654 million dollars), a joint estimate by the environment and agriculture ministries calculated. www.rense.com /general5/meal.htm   (508 words)

010207 Feed Makers Rethink Use of Meat & Bone Meal Chicago, IL - The use of meat and bone meal in livestock feed, suspected of posing a risk of spreading mad cow disease, is coming under increased scrutiny in the United States, and some manufacturers are reviewing -- or halting -- its use. But in the United States, where BSE has never been detected, meat and bone meal (MBM) derived from carcasses of ruminants -- cud-chewers such as cattle, sheep and goats -- is still a common high-protein additive in feed for poultry, hogs and pets. Kerbs said that ruminant meat and bone meal was a “valuable ingredient” but was too risky to use at feed plants that make feeds for more than one species, including cattle. www.spcnetwork.com /mii/2001/010207.htm   (885 words)

Bone meal and mad cow disease There were apparently four deaths of gardeners in Great Britain attributed to use of bone meal from cattle which may have had this disease. It is believed that they inhaled bone meal dust as they were applying bone meal to their garden.

Health and Consumer Protection - Scientific Steering Committee - Outcome of discussions 27 According to data collected from some feed compounders, in order to eliminate the traces of meat and bone meal from a production line where monogastric feeds containing 3% meat and bone meal are produced, one would require four processing cycles of feeds which do not contain any meat meal. It may also be noted that vegetable materials can be directly contaminated with mammalian protein and bone either as a result of small mammals being killed and harvested with the crop or as a result of harvesting skeletal remains that may be in pasture. The mammalian bone fragments are distinguishable by stereomicroscopy from poultry bones and from the bones and cartilaginous tissues of fish. europa.eu.int /comm/food/fs/sc/ssc/out27_en.html   (3476 words)
