In this study, walnut green husk extract, which is a valuable waste of horticultural products, was used to enhance antioxidant properties and reduce microbial load of ketchup sauce. Extraction efficiency of walnut green husk extract 22.01%, total phenolic compounds 65.40 (mg gallic acid per 100 g dry husk), flavonoids 10.06 (catechin mg per 100 g dry husk), and EC50 0.17 (mg/mL) were expressed....

in order to evaluate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on yield, yield components and dry matter remobilization of different rice genotypes, a field experiment was carried out at the farm of ramin agricultural and natural resources university (ahwaz/iran) during 2007. experiment was arranged in a split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. four nitrogen fertil...

This research was conducted to investigate in situ degradation characteristics of maize, sorghum and sorghum-Sudan grass hybrids. whole plant of maize (TTM-815, DK-711), sorghum (SS-506, FS-5) and sorghum × Sudan grass hybrids (P-988, Grazer N2) were grown under semi-arid conditions and harvested at different maturity stages (mid-flowering (MF), milk-line (ML) and hard-dough (HD)) and ensiled. ...

the aim of this paper was to study of the effect of fenugreek seed (trigonella foenum-graecum) and asparagus root (asparagus officinalis) on in vitro digestibility and kinetics of gas production of alfalfa hay. fenugreek seed (fs) and asparagus root (ar) were added at different levels (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% of dm). total phenolic components of alfalfa hay (ah), fenugreek seed (fs) and asparagus ...

the effect of different salinity levels (1.7, 5, 10, 15 and 20 ds.m-1) on yield and forage quality of two millet cultivars (nutrifeed and bastan) was investigated in this experiment. a factorial test based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted during 2010-11 growing season. the results showed that with increase in salinity, dry matter yield decreased. the hig...

The potential of Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) as a fast method to predict the Crude Protein (CP) and Moisture (M) content in fishmeal by scanning spectra between 1000 and 2500 nm using multivariate regression technique based on Partial Least Squares (PLS) was evaluated. The coefficient of determination in calibration (R2C) and Standard Error of Calibra...

the high yield depends on high dry matter production per unit area. azotobacter bio-fertilizer experiment to investigate the effect on the index, total dry matter accumulation and pishtaz and chamran wheat cultivars in 2005 was conducted in the faculty of agriculture, lorestan university. experiment, a split-plot randomized complete blocks design with four replicates were tested. treatments con...
