the aromatic plants are rich in essential oils characterized by a notable antimicrobial activity; for this reason, these substances can be used to delay or inhibit the growth of pathogenic or spoilage microorganisms. in this study, log probability percentage (log p%) of growth of the clostridium botulinum type a spores in brain heart infusion (bhi) broth as affected by various levels of zataria...

This research was carried out to evaluate the effect of drought stress on grain yield and qualitative traits in some Iranian landraces of confectionary sunflower. Fifty six confectionary sunflower landraces were evaluated using three different water treatment conditions with three separate rectangular 7 × 8 lattice design with two replications. Irrigation treatments were as follows optimum irri...

In this study, N-hydroxy-N-methyl fattyamide (HMFA) has been synthesized by refluxing of palm oil and N, methyl hydroxylamine. The products were characterized using the complex formation test of hydroxamic acid group with copper(Π), various technique methods including nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Paramet...

In order to evaluate the effect of different biological and organic fertilizers on essential oil content of sweet fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill), an experiment was conducted at Research field of Faculty of Agriculture, Shahrood University of Technology in 2010. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized block design with 11 treatments and three replications. The experimental trea...

The objective was to evaluate the effect of feeding oxidized corn oil with or without a dietary antioxidant (AOX) on performance, tissue oxidative status, and meat quality in barrows. One hundred sixty barrows were arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial of treatments in a complete randomized block design with 8 pens per treatment and 5 pigs per pen. Diets contained 5.0 mg/kg of 1 of 2 types of corn oil ...

The culture conditions of a multiphase fermentation involving morphologically complex mycelia were simulated in order to investigate the influence of mycelial morphology (Trichoderma harzianum) on castor oil and air dispersion. Measurements of oil drops and air bubbles were obtained using an image analysis system coupled to a mixing tank. Complex interactions of the phases involved could be cle...

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...

some research indicates that n2 fixation in soybean cannot provide adequate nitrogen for proper yield. therefore, the effect of nitrogen and bradyrhizobium japonicum bacteria on some agronomic characteristics and quality of soybean cultivars was examined based on split plot in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in 2012 at kerman township. treatments including control (w...

The germination behavior of Sporobolus iocladus seeds including germination percentage, accumulated germination percentage, the average incubation period to germination and germination velocity was studied under laboratory conditions. Treatments included six salinity regimes (0, 70, 140, 210, 280 and 350 mM NaCI) and three sources of oil hydrocarbons; Light Arabian Crude, polynuclear aromatic h...

Our objective was to measure ruminal fermentation characteristics and site and extent of nutrient digestion in sheep limit-fed an 81.6% (DM basis) concentrate diet supplemented with increasing levels of soybean oil. Eight white-faced wether lambs (39.9 ± 3.0 kg BW) fitted with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were used in a replicated 4 × 4 Latin square experiment. Diets were formulated to...
