The aim of this research was to investigate the changes in milk yield and its composition, fatty acid profile and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors gamma (PPARG) gene expression in adipose tissue of Iranian Holstein cattle in response to feeding isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets but formulated based on different oilseeds (soybean or canola seeds). Twenty cows were tested ra...

INTRODUCTION The role of the fatty acid in the prevention or progression of chronic diseases has generated significant interest on the part of researchers. Thus, our objective was to evaluate the long-term effects of high-fat diet containing soybean or canola oil on body development and bone parameters of male rats. METHODS After weaning, rats were grouped and fed either a control diet (7S) o...

OBJECTIVE This experiment was designed to evaluate the effect of supplementation with soybean or canola oil on milk production and the composition of long chain fatty acids as well as weight changes in the goats and their kids. METHODS Thirty nine mulitparous crossed Alpine×Nubian goats (initial body weight [BW] 43.5±1.7 kg) from the day of parturition were assigned to the treatments: grazing...

OBJECTIVE To develop a technique for simultaneous detection of various target genes in Roundup Ready soybean by combining multiplex PCR and low-density DNA microarray. METHODS Two sets of the multiplex PCR system were used to amplify the target genes in genetically modified (GM) soybean. Seventeen capture probes (PCR products) and 17 pairs of corresponding primers were designed according to t...

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of substitution of soybean meal (SBM) with canola meal (CM) in diets formulated on the basis of total or digestible amino acid (AA) on productive performance, egg quality, and selected organ weight and blood parameters in laying hens from 73 to 83 weeks of age. A total of 128 laying hens were allotted randomly to a completely randomized design arr...

Introduction In 2014, the top five genetically modified (GM) or transgenic crop producers were the United States, Brazil, Argentina, India, and Canada, together accounting for 90% of the global area of these crops (James, 2015). The United States has 40% of the area; Brazil, 23%; Argentina, 13%; India, 6%; and Canada, 6%. Although GM cultivars of 11 crops have been released, 4 crops cover 99% o...

The present work describes an experimental investigation concerning the determination of viscosity behavior with shear rate and temperature of edible oils: canola; sunflower; corn; soybean and the no edible oil: Jatropha curcas. Besides these, it was tested a blend of canola, corn and sunflower oils as well as sunflower and soybean biodiesel. Based on experiments, it was obtained shear stress a...

this experiment was carried out to study the effects of different levels of canola meal of different fat sources on the egg quality, performance as well egg yolk cholesterol during the first 12 weeks of age in laying hens (hy-line w-36). throughout the experiment a total of 432 hens were employed in a completely randomized design in a factorial arrangement of 3×4, with three levels of canola me...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of processing protein meals by tannin extracted from pistachio by-product on apparent total tract digestibility, ruminal fermentation and performance of dairy cows. for tannin extraction, one kilogram of sun-dried pistachio by-products was immersed in four liters of water for 48 h. then, pistachio by-products were removed from the water and ...

in order to compare the impact of vegetable oils to improve the efficacy of mesosulfuron-methyl + iodososulfuron - methyl + mefenpyr (atlantis)®, a greenhouse experiment of dose-response as factorial experiment in a completely randomized design including concentration 0, 3/75, 7/5, 15, 22/5, and second factor 30 g a.i. ha-1 of atlantis at 13 levels of with and without vegetable oils (each of tw...
