mechanisms of tolerance to water deficiency stress for introducing sunflower hybrid was investigated by a two-factor experiment as a split plot design based on rcbd was at the research station in alborz province, hashtgerd region, iran in 2013. irrigation rates (irrigation after 50, 100 and 150 mm cumulative evaporation from class a evaporation pan) were considered in the main plots and sunflow...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplemental l-arginine (arg) in reduced-protein diets on cardiopulmonary performance and intestinal morphology in the broilers reared at high altitude. a total of 156 day-old male broilers were randomly assigned to 3 treatments and 4 replicates of 13 chicks and reared up to 42 days of age. treatment groups were designed as a normal-prote...

Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is used as both a food and traditional medicine for several illnesses throughout the world. 7 garlic cultivars (Novozamocky, Lumir, Mojmir, Havran, Garpel, Eden Rose, Bjetin) were analyzed in this study. Since modern consumer demands encourage consumption of foods with positive effects on human health, research into nutritional properties chemical composition crops, l...

objective(s):the aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative status and dna integrity in testes of wistar rat offspring exposed to omega-9 monounsaturated (mufa) at different times of late organogenesis. materials and methods:sixty female rats were divided into six groups of 10 animals. the first group served as control and received the drug vehicle, olive oil (1 ml/kg/day). the second, thi...

Background: Milk is considered as one of the highly nutritious food for human. This study was undertaken to evaluate the physicochemical as well as the microbial quality of pasteurized milk of different brands available in Chittagong, Bangladesh. Methods: Five types of branded pasteurized liquid milk were collected from retail markets of Chittagong, Bangladesh. Physicochemical analyses were ca...

Nuclei were isolated from rat liver during the prolonged feeding of the 2 carcinogens, N-hydroxy^-acetylaminofluorene and 3'-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene, and during the pro longed feeding of the noncarcinogen, 2-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene. Nuclei were also isolated from rat liver tumors induced by the above carcinogens. Chromatin was isolated from these nuclei and analyzed for RNA, t...

The aim of this study was to determine physicochemical, microbial properties and antioxidant activity of fermented camel milk (Chal) and introduce it as a functional food. The protein content of the samples was determined using Kjeldahl method and total dry matter using oven drying method. The amount of fat content with Gerber method and pH was measured using a pH meter. Antioxidant activity wa...

in order to study the effects of potassium application on uptake and allocation of nitrogen and seed protein on two lentil cultivars in rain-fed condition a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at ardabil research center for agriculture and natural resources, in 2008. three potassium levels (0, 30 and 60 kg.ha-1), three nitrogen le...
