Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

M.W.A. Verstegen focuses on Animal science, Food science, Weight gain, Broiler and Digestion. M.W.A. Verstegen specializes in Animal science, namely Weaning. His Food science research incorporates elements of Feces and Small intestine.

M.W.A. Verstegen combines subjects such as Feed conversion ratio and Antibiotics, Microbiology with his study of Broiler. His Digestion research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Amino acid, Lysine and Jejunum. His work focuses on many connections between Fermentation and other disciplines, such as Nutrient, that overlap with his field of interest in Polysaccharide.

His most cited work include:

  • Intestinal barrier function and absorption in pigs after weaning: a review (226 citations)
  • Dietary protein affects nitrogen excretion and ammonia emission from slurry of growing-finishing pigs. (206 citations)
  • Effects of mushroom and herb polysaccharides, as alternatives for an antibiotic, on the cecal microbial ecosystem in broiler chickens (179 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Animal science, Food science, Biochemistry, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. His studies in Animal science integrate themes in fields like Body weight, Weight gain and Meal. His Food science study frequently links to related topics such as Soybean meal.

M.W.A. Verstegen is studying Amino acid, which is a component of Biochemistry. The concepts of his Digestion study are interwoven with issues in Ileum and Animal feed. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Feed conversion ratio and Broiler.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (47.76%)
  • Food science (26.38%)
  • Biochemistry (12.41%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2019)?

  • Animal science (47.76%)
  • Food science (26.38%)
  • Biochemistry (12.41%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

M.W.A. Verstegen mainly investigates Animal science, Food science, Biochemistry, Broiler and Fermentation. His Animal science research includes themes of Body weight, Meal and Agronomy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Feed conversion ratio, Dry matter, Bran and Nutrient.

In his study, Ammonium, Odor, Volatilisation, Volatile fatty acids and Organic chemistry is inextricably linked to Manure, which falls within the broad field of Biochemistry. The Broiler study combines topics in areas such as Cultivar, Fatty acid, Nutrient density, Moisture and Digestion. His research in Fermentation intersects with topics in Feces, Microbiology, Pectin, Incubation and Butyric acid.

Between 2006 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Intestinal barrier function and absorption in pigs after weaning: a review (226 citations)
  • Nutrition, key factor to reduce environmental load from pig production (124 citations)
  • Effect of Wheat Cultivar and Enzyme Addition to Broiler Chicken Diets on Nutrient Digestibility, Performance, and Apparent Metabolizable Energy Content (61 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Animal science, Food science, Broiler, Biochemistry and Feed conversion ratio. His Animal science study combines topics in areas such as Meal, Lactation and Manure. His research integrates issues of Proventriculus, Nutrient and Fatty acid in his study of Food science.

His work deals with themes such as Digestion, Soybean meal, Cultivar and Starch, which intersect with Broiler. His research in the fields of Ammonia, Urine and Metabolism overlaps with other disciplines such as Short-chain fatty acid. As a part of the same scientific family, M.W.A. Verstegen mostly works in the field of Feed conversion ratio, focusing on Animal fat and, on occasion, Firmicutes, Gut flora and Reproduction.
