Phytoextraction is a remediation technology that uses plants to remove heavy metals from soil. The success of a phytoextraction process depends on adequate plant yield (aerial parts) and high metal concentrations in plant shoots. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the combination effects of plants [sunflower (Helianthus annuus) and canola (Brassica napus)] with soil treatments (manur...

The study aims to investigate the effect of microwave frying power and time on 3-MCPD glycidyl ester contents oils absorbed by fried potatoes. For this purpose, potato sticks were with three different refined vegetable (canola, corn, sunflower) at two settings (350 W, 700 W) for periods (3 5 minutes). oil samples evaluated their content using alkali transesterification DGF Standard Method C-VI ...

The present study was aimed at determining rumen phosphorus availability of some feedstuffs assessed with the nylon bag technique: forage (alfalfa), cereals (control-C wheat, formaldehyde treated-FT wheat, barley, corn), cereal by-products (wheat bran, wheat distillers, corn distillers) and meals (C and FT soya bean meals, rapeseed meals and sunflower meals). Rumen phosphorus availability was n...

zero tillage practices have a direct effect on soil microbial communities modifying soil productivity and sustainability. the crop sequences used can change the aforementioned properties, too. in this study, we evaluated the effect of crop sequences under zero tillage management on soil biological and chemical properties including vertical distribution of soil organic carbon, soil basal respira...

BACKGROUND Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) plus docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation has beneficial cardiovascular effects, but postprandial influences of these individual fatty acids are unclear. OBJECTIVES The primary objective was to determine the vascular effects of EPA + DHA compared with DHA only during postprandial lipemia relative to control high-oleic acid meals; the secondary obje...

YILDIZ, E., 2015. Comparison of rations for dairy cows with soybean meal or with rapeseed meal in which the main source of protein is sunflower meal. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 21: 662–667 The aim of experiment is to check whether the inclusion of soybean meal in the diet will improve performance of dairy cows fed ration with sunflower meal as main protein source. This problem is important for East ...
