this study evaluated the suitability of canola oil as a source of supplemental dietary lipid for rainbow trout. triplicate groups of the 30 fingerlings held under identical culture conditions were fed twice daily by iso-nitrogenous, iso-calorific and iso-lipidic diets for eight weeks. experimental diets consisted of 30.3% protein, 18.7 kjg-1 energy and 16.7% lipid from fish oil (fo), canola oil...

The necessity for decrease in consumption of conventional fuel, related energy and to promote the use of renewable sources such as biofuels, demands for the effective evaluation of the performance of engines based on laws of thermodynamics. Energy, exergy, entropy generation, mean gas temperature and exhaust gas temperature analysis of CI engine using diesel and karanja methyl ester blends at d...

This study was aimed to evaluate the correlation between in vitro fermentation and in situ degradation parameters and to predict dry matter degradability and energy protein synchronization of roughage based diets. Different inclusion of roughage in diets [roughage 50% diet (R50D), roughage 60% diet (R60D), roughage 65% diet (R65D) and roughage ...

objective: druggability of a target protein depends on the interacting micro-environment between the target protein and drugs. therefore, a precise knowledge of the interacting micro-environment between the target protein and drugs is requisite for drug discovery process. to understand such micro-environment, we performed in silico interaction analysis between a human target protein, dipeptidyl...

the objectives of this study were to determine the energy use efficiency and economical potential of sugar beet production in miandoab city, west azerbaijan province in 2011-12. fields were classified into three groups as group i (less than 1 ha), group ii (1-2 ha), and group iii (more than 2 ha). inputs and outputs data were collected from growers using questionnaire and interview methods. res...

The Acehnese mahseer, locally known as keureling, Tor tambra is one of the highest economically valued freshwater fishes found in Aceh waters. The culture of T. tambra was initiated in Aceh Province, Indonesia more than five years ago. However, the growth rate in captivity has been low, probably due to feeding problems. Hence, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the optimum level...

  Shirbot (Barbus grypus) as a species with high potential for aquaculture development recently propagated artificially in South Iran Aquaculture Research Center to extend the species diversity in polyculture system. To provide an effective economic diet for this species 9 experimental diets containing three crude protein levels (250, 300, and 350 g kg -1) and three metabolizable energy levels ...
