Sperm fatty acid composition, semen quality, and reproductive performance of roosters fed diets supplemented with n-3 fatty acid and ginger (<i>Zingiber officinale</i>)

Sperm quality parameters and fatty acid composition in Farahani rams fed pistachio by-products

Fifteen fertile rams (live weight 55.9 ± 1.21 kg, and 2.5-3 years old) were randomly allotted to three diets consisting of 0 (Control), 12.5 (PBP-12.5), and 25 % (PBP-25.5) pistachio by-products (PBP) in dry matter. Sperm motility parameters were detrimentally affected in animals feeding on PBP-25% diet (P<0.05). Sperm concentration of C17-1, C22-6-n-3, C18-2-Cis and C22-6 n-3 fatty acids decre...

Fatty Acid Profles of Ram&#039;s Sperm after Removing Some Fatty Acid Sources from the Diets and Persistency of Fatty Acids in Sperm

Reproductive long-term effects, endocrine response and fatty acid profile of rabbit does fed diets supplemented with n-3 fatty acids.

The effect of a diet enriched with polyunsaturated n-3 fatty acids (PUFA) on endocrine, reproductive, and productive responses of rabbit females and the litters has been studied. Nulliparous does (n=125) were fed ad libitum from rearing to second weaning two diets supplemented with different fat sources: 7.5g/kg lard for the control diet (group C; n=63) or 15g/kg of a commercial supplement cont...

the effects of dietary n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids on fatty acid composition and fertility of spermatozoain roosters

effects of n-3 or n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids alone or in combination with vitamin e on male breeders’ fatty acid composition of spermatozoa, fertility and lipid peroxidation were studied. fish oil increased c22:6 n-3 and decreased c22:4 n-6 in the spermatozoa (p

Performance and Egg Quality of Laying Hens Fed Diets Supplemented with Herbal Extracts and Flaxseed

In this experiment, the effects of fennel and thyme extracts with and without flaxseed were investigated on performance and egg quality of Leghorn-type laying hens (Hy-Line W-36). 200 laying hens from 26 to 38 weeks of age were assigned to five dietary treatments with five replications. The treatment groups were: 1) Control (a diet without any additives); 2) control diet plus fennel (40 mg/kg f...
