the present experiment was conducted to determine nutritional values of wild pistachio trees (p. khinjuk) leaves it's use it in the diet of sheep. initially chemical composition of p. khinjuk leaf was determined. the diets containing 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30% of p. khinjuk leaf were prepared and used for sheep to determine the best replacement level of it with corn silage. fermentation ...

two experiments were conducted to evaluate the crude protein fractionation, in vitro gas production and the biological effects of tannins in alfalfa silage treated with different levels of pistachio by-products (pb) extract. pb was soaked in water with a ratio of 1:5 (w/v) for 12 h. after filtering and concentrating, the crude extract was added to fresh alfalfa to a final concentration of 1%, 2...

Crude extracts of the wild-type Klebsiella pneumoniae reduced C2H2 with either pyruvate or formate as reductant (specific activity, 3 nmol min-1 mg of protein-1), whereas crude extracts of nifF mutant were almost inactive (specific activity, 0.05). However, activity in the latter extracts was stimulated by adding Azotobacter chroococcum flavodoxin (specific activity, 10). Thus, nifF mutants may...

This study evaluated the seasonal nutrient content and trace element composition of great Mediterranean scallop (Pecten jacobaeus), which is among economic species. The samples were obtained as by-catch from trawler nets commercial fishing boats operating in Gulf Antalya seasonally between 2017 2018. After determining scallops' growth indices scallops; proximate composition, amino acid analyses...

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica. L) is a wild, unique herbaceous perennial flowering plant with Stinging hairs. It has a long history of use as a food sources as a soup or curries, and also used as a fiber as well as a medicinal herb. The current aim was to analyze the composition and bioactive compounds in Nepalese Stinging nettle. Chemical analysis showed the relatively higher level of crude p...

this study was carried out to determine the effects of gamma irradiation on dry matter (dm) and on crude protein (cp) degradation of rapeseed meal, using nylon bags and sds-page techniques. ruminal nylon bags of either untreated or irradiated rapeseed meal at doses of 25, 50 and 75 kgy were suspended in the rumen of four non-lactating holstein cows for up to 48 h. intestinal crude protein diges...

the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of two levels of four commercial multi-enzymes on the apparent metabolizable energy corrected for nitrogen (amen) and digestibility of crude fat, crude protein, dry matter, and organic matter in broiler chickens through total excreta collection method. one hundred thirty male broiler chicks were assigned to 45 metabolic cages involving 9 tre...

brachystegia eurycoma is predominantly grown in the eastern region of nigeria. its seed is used in food majorly as a soup condiment, flavouring agent and soup thickener. the proximate, mineral and amino acid compositions were determined on raw and processed seeds (boiled, fermented and roasted) using standard analytical techniques. the processing methods showed deviations in nutrients from the ...

a 50-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of yeast nucleotide in diets on growth performance, serum immune indices and muscle composition of ancherythroculter nigrocauda(mean initial body weight, 23.30±0.59 g). seven isonitrogenous (approximately 42.76% crude protein) and isoenergetic (17.43 kj g−1 gross energy) experimental diets with varying levels of yeast nucleotide (0[co...
