raw (intact) sesame seed showed a high content of oil, protein and ash: respectively, 52%, 24% and 5%. studies were conducted on some quality characteristics of sesame and olive oils. the following values were obtained from raw sesame, sesame paste and olive oils, respectively: unsaponifiable matter 1.35, 1.46, and 1.50%; total phenols 14.21, 16.82, and 53.33 mg kg-1 oil; chlorophylls 0.04, 0.0...

the aim of this study was to develop a diet suitable for obtaining quail eggs enriched with omega-3 fatty acids with minimum disadvantages on egg quality. this 12 weeks study was performed to investigate the effects of fish oil (fo) and savory (satureja khuzestanica) essential oil (eo) supplementation in diets of laying quails at different ages, on their performance, egg quality, fatty acid com...

Abstract In this study ameliorative effects of ascorbic acid (0.5 mM) on onion (Allium cepa L. cv. Red Azarshahr) under copper stress (Cu: 6.5 μM) were studied. Fresh weights of leaves and roots were reduced in seven week old plants under excess copper condition. Cu stress also reduced membrane stability index in leaves. There was a considerable increase in H2O2 content and lipid peroxidation i...

To investigate the effect of salinity stress on membrane stability index, membrane lipid peroxidation, catalase activity and protein content of Fenugreek (Trigonellafoenum) an experiment with five levels of short-term salinity stress (0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM) was carried out at the laboratory of agriculture faculty of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Iran. The treatments were ar...

The study assessed the individual and interactive role of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) nitric oxide (NO) against excess copper (Cu) concentrations. Excess Cu significantly reduced growth photosynthesis, although application ASA NO mitigated reduction with much visible effect in their combination. oxidative effects have been evident as increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, resulting ...

The oxidative stability of microalgae oil (MO) and its enzymatic glycerolysis product (GP) have been determined by using the accelerated oxidation methods differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) Rancimat at temperatures in range 50–90 °C. Kinetic analyses MO GP provide Arrhenius activation energy enthalpy entropy, temperature coefficients, Q 10 index 20 °C (OSI ), based on secondary tertiary pr...
