A study using 51 wheat, 56 barley and 34 oat grain samples was conducted to investigate the feasibility of predicting the apparent metabolizable energy (AME) value of these cereals for poultry. Stepwise regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship of AME with starch, ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), soluble sugar (SS), ash and crude protein (CP) (for wheat and barley gra...

background and objectives cannabinoids which are active compounds of marijuana show some pharmacological effects similar to the opioids. there are also functional interactions between both cannabinoid and opioid systems. in this study we investigated the role of cannabinoid receptors in central amygdala and its interaction with opioid system.   methods in the present study, we investigated the ...

Oat is widely grown in Western Serbia and compared to other cereal crops reputed be better suited for production under marginal environments, including low fertility soils cool wet climates. To determine the effect of cultivar growing seasons on yield components oats two varieties were examined during three years, field experiment secondary agricultural-chemical school "Dr Đorđe Radić" Kraljevo...

Three major oat components, β-glucan, starch, and protein, and their interactions were evaluated for the impact on viscosity of heated oat slurries and in vitro bile acid binding. Oat flour from the experimental oat line "N979" (7.45% β-glucan) was mixed with water and heated to make oat slurry. Heated oat slurries were treated with α-amylase, lichenase, and/or proteinase to remove starch, β-gl...

adjutants' ability in enhancing the performance of herbicides is a major priority in adjuvant research. to identify an appropriate adjuvant for pinoxaden and clodinafop propargyl herbicides against littleseed canarygrass (phalaris minor retz.), common wild oat (avena fatua l.) and ryegrass (lolium temulentum l.), three separate experiments were conducted under greenhouse conditions. in all...

T-2 and HT-2 toxins were analysed in oats (n = 243), oat flakes (n = 529), oat meal (n = 105) and oat by-products (n = 209) from 11 European mills during 2005-2009 by high-performance liquid chromatography with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. Limits of quantification were 5 µg kg(-1) for both T-2 and HT-2 toxins in oats. The incidence of T-2 + HT-2 (>5 µg kg(-1)) in oats, oat flakes, oat...

nowadays herbicide reduction and different approaches leading to this goal like split application have been brought to attention. two green house experiments were carried out to investigate the efficiency of single and split application of mesosulfuron-methy+iodosulfuron methyl to control wild oat (avena ludoviciana). the influence of applications intervals and the ratios of the two application...
