A 56-day feeding trial using 1836 day-old dominant brown strain pullet chicks was conducted to assess the effect of different commercial chick vitamin-mineral premixes type at varying levels dietary inclusion on growth performance, haematological and serum biochemical indices. The birds were divided into 12 groups 153 each group assigned one experimental diets in a3x4factorial arrangement. Each...

Orpiment, getchellite and stibnite from Zarshuran deposit, NW Iran, exhibit extensive As-Sb substitution. There are four known minerals along As2S3-Sb2S3 join, i.e. orpiment (As2S3), Wakabayashilite [(As,Sb)20S30], getchellite (AsSbS3) and stibnite (Sb2S3). Extensive mineralogical studies by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron probe micro-analyzer (EPMA) indicate that getchellite fr...

From the last few years, the inclusion of microbial phytase in poultry diets has increased significantly, mainly in response to heightened concerns over phosphorus pollution of the environment and as cheaper means to make phosphorus available to birds from phytate. Phytate is the major form of phosphorus, abundantly found in cereal grains, beans and oilseed meals used in poultry diet but the mo...

one of the methods to enhance bio-accessibility of drugs like acridone and its oxime is toform inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin. the formation of such complexes has beenconfirmed by changes in spectral characteristics and melting point data. the aqueous phasesolubility studies reveal 1:1 stoichiometry between the compound and, β-cyclodextrin. the studyof thermodynamic parameters like δg,...

inclusion body hepatitis (ibh) has been reported in many countries in the world. the ibh or similar cases characterized by hepatitis and presence of intra-nuclear inclusion bodies in hepatocytes have not been reported in broiler chickens in iran. this is the first report on outbreak of adenovirus-like inclusion body hepatitis in iran. on october 2012, an onset of high acute mortality in a flock...

domperidone is a widely used antiemetic, poorly water soluble drug, erratically absorbed in stomach and possess several dissolution-related problems thus it has poor bioavailability. solubility of a drug plays a very important role in dissolution and hence absorption of drug which ultimately affects its bioavailability. hence, by considering the facts related to drug, attempts have been made to...
