in the past decade, a global demand for products from organic agriculture has increased rapidly. milk quality is of major interest for all parties. therefore, the objective of this study was to compare cow performance and product quality in conventional and organic system. twenty holstein dairy cows were allotted to one of 2 diet groups, which including: a conventional diet (con), and an organi...

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of supplementation different levels of pomegranate seed pulp (PSP) on performance and blood parameters in laying hens. A total of 96 layers hens (Hy-line W-36) at 24 week of age were randomly assigned into 4 treatments including 0 (control), 5, 10 and 15% of PSP, with 4 replicates containing 6 layers in each. Results showed no significant effec...

manufacturing process frequently employs optimization of machining parameters in order to improve product quality as well as to enhance productivity. the material removal rate is a significant indicator of the productivity and cost efficiency of the process. taguchi method has been implemented for assessing favorable (optimal) machining condition during the machining of nylon by considering thr...

Studies have been conducted in our laboratory to assess differences in mitochondrial function and biochemistry in male broilers with high and low feed efficiency (FE) from the same genetic line and fed the same diet. Mitochondria obtained from broilers with low FE exhibited greater uncoupling of the electron transport chain (ETC) that was apparently due to site-specific defects in electron tran...

In this study, extraction of amoxicillin (AMOX) ions from aqueous solution by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) was investigated. The LLE process by response surface methodology (RSM) was carried out based on central composite design (CCD). The organic phase consisted of extractant and toluene as diluent. In this process, triethylamine (TEA), di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid and mono-2-ethylhexyl p...
