abstract in order to investigation the effect of different levels of onion powdr (allium cepa) on growth performance, survival, fillet composition and hematological parameters of  rainbow trout, a completly randomize design with six treatments and three replicates (15 fish in each replicate) were conducted for eight weeks. experimental dietary included 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5% onion powder. all t...

INTRODUCTION Taekwondo (TKD) is a combat sport, which has also been proposed as a fitness program, with a strong anaerobic component. Creatine (Cr) supplementation is used to improve both anaerobic exercise performance and body composition. Therefore, Cr supplementation could be beneficial in TKD. AIMS To determine the effect of Cr supplementation (50 mg/kg body wt) on body composition, anaer...

in the present study, the age- and sex-specific changes of various haematological and blood serum biochemical blood parameters of beluga ( huso huso ) were investigated. blood samples were collected from 4-, 6-, 7-, and 8-year-old beluga (n = 7 for each sex and age). the specimens were fed at a rate of 0.5-3% body weight per day. ast and ldh levels in 7- and 8-year-old fish of both sexes were s...

Objectives. To investigate whether lifestyle-only intervention in obese children who maintain or lose a modest amount of weight redistributes parameters of body composition and reverses metabolic abnormalities. Study Design. Clinical, anthropometric, and metabolic parameters were assessed in 111 overweight or obese children (CA of 11.3 ± 2.8 years; 63 females and 48 males), during 8 months of l...

probiotics are beneficial microorganisms which will be considered as alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters.the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of probiotic administration in hatchery on performance, blood parameters and immune response of broilers. three hundereds 1-d-old male chicks (ross 308) were assigned to five experimental groups of three replications. birds o...

to evaluate the effects of physically processed flaxseed [ground flaxseed (gfs) and whole flaxseed(wfs)] as a replacement for extruded soybeans on feed intake, milk production, milk composition, milk fatty acid (fa) composition and blood biochemical parameters, nine primiparus holstein dairy lactating cowsaveraging 495 ± 34.5 kg of body weight (bw) and 70 ± 5 days in milk (dim) were assigned in...

The effect of aqueous extract of Citrus sinensis peel on some biochemical parameters in alloxan-induced diabetic rats was investigated. Sixteen (16) adult male albino rats (181 g to 206 g) were randomly divided into four groups (A-D). 150 mg/kg body weight of alloxan was administered intra-peritoneally to the rats to induce diabetes. A normal control group, diabetic group, treated group with th...

The melanin-concentrating hormone-1 receptor (MCH1R) is a G-protein-coupled receptor expressed in the brain and peripheral tissues that regulates energy storage and body weight. Here, we focused on discovery of the mechanism and site of action for a small-molecule MCH1R antagonist, which yields weight loss in a mouse model of human obesity. MCH1R is expressed throughout the brain but also found...
