To examine the effect of including oil in diets on early lactating productive performance parameters including; dry matter intake, milk production and components, body condition score, body weight and negative energy balance; twenty multiparous Holstein cows were randomly assigned to the experimental diets from 21 days before predicted calving time to 50 days in milk. Treatments including 1) co...

Research work was carried out to investigate the physicochemical analysis of olive oil extracted from olives grown in Khyber pakhtunkhwa. The samples were studied for physicochemical characteristics (Specific gravity, refractive index, Acid value, Saponification value and Peroxide value). The free fatty acidity is thus a direct measure of the quality of the oil. Olive oil was analysed for fatty...

A comparative study was done on the dry oils isolated from the leaves and stem portions of Corchrus olitorius (Linn.) growing in Saudi Arabia. Oils were obtained by column chromatography and analysed by Gas Chromatography (GC), Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The investigation led to the identification of 22 components in leaves oil while as 23 components ...

in order to evaluate the effect of harvest time on fruit weight, oil content and fruit bearing in the next year in some cultivars of olive (conservalea, amygdalolia, karidolia, koroneiki, arbequina, zard and rouwghani), an experiment was performed as a split plot in time based on crd (completely randomized design) with three replications at olive research station (tarrom–zanjan) during 2013 and...

in order to study the effect of density and time of urea foliar application on oil yield and essences percentage of black cumin (nigella sativa l.) a field experiment was conducted at research station of faculty of agriculture, azad university of birjand in 1387 growing season. three urea foliar application times [1-control 2-at 8-10 leaves stage 3-at 10% flowering 4-100% flowering ] and three ...

The feeding of cod liver oil to a lactating cow is followed by a reduction of the fat percentage in the milk. Golding et al. (l), who described this effect, found the fat was decreased by about 30 per cent. Results from several other laboratories have confirmed this original observation (2, 3). The phenomenon is so consistent, and the decrease in fat percentage is so large, that few animals nee...

Objectives: To determine the ef®cacy of oral iodized oil in goitrous children who are both selenium (Se) and iodine de®cient; to investigate if Se status modi®es the response of iodine de®cient, goitrous children to oral supplementation with iodized oil. Design: A longitudinal intervention trial. Setting: Two rural villages in the western CoÃte d'Ivoire. Subjects: 51 goitrous non-anemic schoolc...

background & aim: the genus satureja belonging to the family of lamiaceae and consists of over 235 different species throughout the world. fourteen species grow naturally in iran of which eleven species are endemic. different species of satureja are used in food, healthy, cosmetic and medical industry. this reseach has been carried due to selection and introduction of suitable germplasm in ...

Monitoring the quality of frying oil is important for the health of consumers. This paper reports a microfluidic technique for rapidly quantifying the degradation of frying oil. The microfluidic device generates monodispersed water-in-oil droplets and exploits viscosity and interfacial tension changes of frying oil samples over their frying/degradation process. The measured parameters were corr...
