The effects of organic and inorganic sources and concentration (0 and 0.3 mg per kg of diet) of Selenium (Se) on growth performance, blood biochemical and immune system were evaluated in broiler chickens. Chickens were fed corn-soy-based diets formulated to 8 dietary treatments containing no added Se (negative control), negative control plus yeast (positive control), and 6 diets had 0.3 mg/kg o...

in order to investigate the effect of partial replacement of barley starch with beet pulp soluble fiber with or without roasted canola seed on apparent nutrient digestibility, dry matter intake, daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio and rumenal ph 24 arabian male lambs were used for 84 days in a completely randomized design with a 2×2 factorial arrangement. treatments had no significant effe...

Optomechanically-induced transparency (OMIT) and the associated slowing of light provide the basis for storing photons in nanoscale devices. Here we study OMIT in parity-time (PT)-symmetric microresonators with a tunable gain-to-loss ratio. This system features a sideband-reversed, non-amplifying transparency, i.e., an inverted-OMIT. When the gain-to-loss ratio is varied, the system exhibits a ...

this research was conducted to evaluate alteration of growth performance, nutrition, carcass and some serum biochemical parameters of common carp fed the diets supplemented by different levels of meal and alcoholic extract of alfalfa (medicago sativa). in this research, 300 fish (mean weight: 20.4 ± 0.19 g and mean length: 11.78 ± 0.64 cm) were fed by nine nutritional diets for 8 weeks. nutriti...

It is important to use a better criterion in selection and discretization of attributes for the generation of decision trees to construct a better classifier in the area of pattern recognition in order to intelligently access huge amount of data efficiently. Two well-known criteria are gain and gain ratio, both based on the entropy of partitions. We propose in this paper a new criterion based a...
