background: seaweeds contain significant quantities of lipids, protein, vitamins and minerals. aquavac ergosan contains 1% alginic acid extracted from two brown seaweeds, laminaria digitata and ascophyllum nodosum. both in vivo and in-vitro researches have mainly been focused on the effect of ergosan on fish growth, survival rate, reproductive performance and innate immunity in blood and epider...

Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of the level of dietary crude protein and protein source on intestinal populations of Clostridium perfringens in broilers. In experiment 1, 6 groups of 12 birds were fed diets containing 230,315 or 400 g/kg crude protein with soy protein concentrate (SPC) or low-temperature-dried fishmeal as the major protein sources in a 2 x 3 factorial arra...

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect fermented straw supplementation with green concentrate on nutrient content and digestibility. Green used as treatment white lead tree leaf flour ( Leucaena leucocephala ), Gamal meal Gliricidia sepium Indigofera meal. Proximate analysis carried out rice straw, 70% + 30% lamtoro (FRS tree), ) ). livestock for digestibility test 12 Friesian Ho...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary protein levels on honey bee colonies, specifically the population growth, physiology, and longevity of honey bee workers during early spring. Diets containing four different levels of crude protein (25.0, 29.5, 34.0, or 38.5%) and pure pollen (control) were evaluated. Twenty-five colonies of honey bees with sister queens were used i...

Depending on the species, edible insects are highly nutritious and thus represent a noteworthy alternative food and feed source. The current work investigates the protein extractability and techno-functionality of insect flour fractions recovered from Tenebrio molitor and Hermetia illucens. T. molitor and H. illucens flours contained about 20% crude fat and 60% and 36 % crude protein, respectiv...

Three different commercially available molasses-based supplements were evaluated for their effects on the performance of preconditioning calves during the fall of 2002. One hundred and forty calves (mean body weight, 465 lb) were randomly allotted to one of four treatments. Treatments offered were: 1) 16% crude protein fortified molasses slurry, 2) 16% crude protein fortified molasses slurry pl...

Acetone fractionated peroxidase from crude extract of Brassica oleracea leaves (Cabbage) was purified in three steps on chromatographic columns, using Sp-Sepharose, DEAE-Sepharose and Con A-Sepharose. The specific activity of purified main isoenzyme (BOC-POD) is 1887 u/mg protein with RZ: 3.1, which is 172 times more than the RZ of crude extract with 4.3% recovery. The molecular weight of BOC-P...

Aquaculture waste is rich in various nutrient contents from uneaten feed, faeces or urine including nitrogen terms of total ammonium (TAN) and nitrite. With the help nitrifying bacteria, wastes can be converted into nitrate which one main components commercial fertilizer agriculture. This study aimed at comparing growth (crude protein, crude fat, energy, antioxidant) mustard Green (Brassica jun...
