Abstract This study investigated the effectiveness of foliar application sweet chestnut wood distillate on photosynthetic performance and growth lettuce ( Lactuca sativa L. cv ‘Canasta’), both alone in combination with soybean lecithin used as biosurfactant. Seedlings were treated a either mineral water (control), or 1:500 solutions 3% soy lecithin, plus lecithin. After 1 week, chlorophyll cont...

The main objective of this work was to increase the retarding effect of the acid dye Telon(®) Blue RR (C.I. Acid Blue 62; DyStar, Frankfurt, Germany) release on polyamide fibres dyeing by encapsulation of the dye in liposomes as an alternative to synthetic auxiliaries, in order to reduce effluent pollution. The retarding effect achieved with the use of mixed cationic liposomes of dioctadecyldim...

To test the hypothesis that dietary fats may improve tractability of horses, the effects of four total mixed diets on behavior were compared. The control diet (CON) contained chopped hay, corn, oats, beet pulp, molasses and a mineral mix; the three test diets contained an additional 10% (by weight) corn oil (CO), soy lecithin-corn oil (SL-CO), or soy lecithin-soy oil (SL-SO). Eight horses were ...

Recent studies suggest that lecithin-rich diet can modify cholesterol homeostasis and hepatic lipoprotein metabolism. Considering the phytotherapeutic impact of lecithin, this work hypothesizes that lecithin administration in hypercholesterolemic patients may reduce cholesterol concentrations by increasing biliary secretion. Total cholesterol and LDL were evaluated after soy lecithin administra...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different lecithin sources and their levels on growth performance and resistance to anoxia stress of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) alevin with initial weight of 120 ± 4.08 g for 40 days. soybean and egg lecithin at 2, 4 and 6 ? levels were added to the diets. seven treatments by three replications were used in this experiment. therefore, ...

the aim of this research was the collection and freezing of honey bee sperm, apis mellifera, as a trail and evaluating different semen extenders to improve sperm quality after freeze-thawing process as a first trail in iran. semen was collected using artificial insemination device. in this experiment three different extenders including; egg yolk (tey), buffer and 0.5% soybean lecithin (tsl0.5) ...

Lipids are the main structural/functional components of the sperm, and their composition may undergo a series of modifications in relation to either physiologic events and/or diet. The effect of lecithin supplementation on reproductive and reproductive performance were studied in rabbits bucks. Twenty eight adult V line rabbits (at age between 7-8 months) were divided into four equal groups. Th...

The senescence-accelerated mouse (SAMP8) is an animal model used in studies of aging. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different types of dietary lipids on longevity and age-related deterioration in memory in SAMP8 mice. Eight-month-old mice were fed diets with 5% lard (Lard group), 5% soybean oil (Soy group), 2% lecithin +3% soybean oil (Lecithin+Soy group) or 2% fish...
