Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Food science
  • Biochemistry
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Food science, Digestion, Fermentation, Feces and Rumen. His study in Food science is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Amino acid and Fatty acid. His research integrates issues of Small intestine, Lycopene and Latin square in his study of Digestion.

The Rumen study combines topics in areas such as Forage and Distillers grains. The concepts of his Meal study are interwoven with issues in Rendering and Ileum. His work on Feedlot as part of general Animal science study is frequently linked to Value, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Cis-Lycopene Is More Bioavailable Than Trans-Lycopene In Vitro and In Vivo in Lymph-Cannulated Ferrets (252 citations)
  • Supplemental Fructooligosaccharides and Mannanoligosaccharides Influence Immune Function, Ileal and Total Tract Nutrient Digestibilities, Microbial Populations and Concentrations of Protein Catabolites in the Large Bowel of Dogs (238 citations)
  • Composition of Ruminal Bacteria Harvested from Steers as Influenced by Dietary Energy Level, Feeding Frequency, and Isolation Techniques (198 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Digestion, Food science, Animal science, Latin square and Rumen. His work deals with themes such as Dry matter, Small intestine, Silage, Forage and Ileum, which intersect with Digestion. The Animal feed, Fermentation and Beet pulp research Neal R Merchen does as part of his general Food science study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Soybean meal, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Neal R Merchen combines subjects such as Urea, Biochemistry, Internal medicine and Agronomy with his study of Animal science. As a member of one scientific family, Neal R Merchen mostly works in the field of Latin square, focusing on Straw and, on occasion, Hydrogen peroxide. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soybean oil, Protein degradation and Hay.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Digestion (54.96%)
  • Food science (52.67%)
  • Animal science (36.64%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2011)?

  • Food science (52.67%)
  • Feces (14.50%)
  • Digestion (54.96%)

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

His primary areas of study are Food science, Feces, Digestion, Animal science and Soybean meal. Palatability and Starch are among the areas of Food science where he concentrates his study. His research on Feces also deals with topics like

  • Guar gum which connect with Carrageenan,
  • Internal medicine which intersects with area such as Endocrinology,
  • Carbohydrate that connect with fields like Lactobacillus.

Neal R Merchen has included themes like Soybean oil, Animal feed, Fatty acid and Rumen, Latin square in his Digestion study. As a part of the same scientific study, Neal R Merchen usually deals with the Rumen, concentrating on Silage and frequently concerns with Soy protein and Urea. His Animal science research integrates issues from Biotechnology and Biochemistry.

Between 2001 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • Supplemental Fructooligosaccharides and Mannanoligosaccharides Influence Immune Function, Ileal and Total Tract Nutrient Digestibilities, Microbial Populations and Concentrations of Protein Catabolites in the Large Bowel of Dogs (238 citations)
  • Concentrations of conjugated linoleic acid (cis-9, trans-11-octadecadienoic acid) are not increased in tissue lipids of cattle fed a high-concentrate diet supplemented with soybean oil. (146 citations)
  • Nutrient digestibilities, microbial populations, and protein catabolites as affected by fructan supplementation of dog diets. (128 citations)

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

  • Biochemistry
  • Food science
  • Internal medicine

Neal R Merchen mostly deals with Food science, Digestion, Soybean meal, Latin square and Feces. His Food science study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Hydrolysis. His Digestion study combines topics in areas such as Ileum, Ingredient and Lactobacillus.

His study looks at the intersection of Latin square and topics like Fructan with Fermentation and Fatty acid. His Feces study incorporates themes from Carbohydrate, Endocrinology, Small intestine, Internal medicine and Fructooligosaccharide. His Protein quality research incorporates themes from Biotechnology, Animal science and Palatability.
