T HE mechanisms regulating feed intake appear to be the same mechanisms that control energy exchange. The physiological functions brought into play are numerous and involve chemosensitive areas, reflex responses and integrative function of the central nervous system. Aside from the primary physiological factors limiting feed intake, a close relationship exists in ruminants between the content o...

background: the distribution and ecological preferences of ticks of domestic animals in north of iran were studied four times a year from 2002 to 2005. methods: a total of 1720 tick specimens were collected from cattle, sheep and goats from different localities of caspian sea areas consisting of guilan, mazandaran, golestan and ardebil provinces, iran. results: fourteen tick species were identi...

In this paper, an experimental scheme based on poultry manure as a feed additive for ruminants along with compound herbal medicine bacterial inhibitor of was proposed by implementing linear simulations polynomial cubic fitting method today's topical environmental pollution issues chicken and straw. The results the yielded that addition at 1% best ratio value to effectively inhibit bacteria prom...

this study was carried out to determine the protein and carbohydrate molecular structure of sorghum cultivars using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) with multivariate molecular spectroscopy analyses. sorghum cultivars included: 1- kimia, 2- sepideh, 3- m2 and 4- m8. protein and carbohydrate molecular functional groups studied included: peak area and height amide i, amide ii, α-hel...

to evaluate the effects of garlic on some blood metabolites in pre-partum dairy goats, the ration was supplemented with raw garlic at the doses of 0, 30, 50 and 70 g kg-1 of dry matter (dm) in eight pregnant mahabadi breed goats (59 ± 1 kg initial live weight) in a replicated latin square design during the last two months of pregnancy. each experimental period lasted 14 days with the first 12 d...
