dietary food stimulants decrease feeding time and wasted food. in the present study, effects of adding calcium chloride and free amino acids glutamine to diet on food intake, growth performance and carcass composition of common carp were investigated. the examined food samples were 9.0 mm calcium chloride, 1.0 mm amino acid glutamine 9.0 mm calcium chloride and 1.0 mm glutamine amino acid and t...

in a pot experiment the effect of water stress on the proteins and proline amino acid content of jam, kurosh, pirooz chickpea cultivars (cicer arientinum) were evaluated using a complete block design with factorial treatments inducing cultivars and watering periods, three, six and nine day intervals in three replications. soluble protein and free proline content of the leaf and the root were me...

High-protein diets shorten lifespan in many organisms. Is it because protein digestion is energetically costly or because the final products (the amino acids) are harmful? To answer this question while circumventing the life-history trade-off between reproduction and longevity, we fed sterile ant workers on diets based on whole proteins or free amino acids. We found that (i) free amino acids sh...

Two garlic subspecies (n = 11), Allium sativum L. var. opioscorodon (hardneck) and Allium sativum L. var. sativum (softneck), were evaluated for their free amino acid composition. The free amino acid content of garlic samples analyzed ranged from 1121.7 to 3106.1 mg/100 g of fresh weight (mean = 2130.7 +/- 681.5 mg/100 g). Hardneck garlic had greater methiin, alliin, and total free amino acids ...

1. The free amino acids of homogenates of guinea-pig brain in 0.32m-sucrose and of subcellular fractions derived therefrom have been estimated by the method of Moore & Stein. 2. Seven amino acids together accounted for over 80% of the free amino compounds; these are, in decreasing order of abundance: glutamate, aspartate, gamma-aminobutyrate, glycine, serine, alanine and threonine. In addition,...

The aim of the present research is to investigate the profile of amino acid of Chlorella vulgaris supplemented with some plant amino acid and oil extracts. The bioactive oil and amino acid from four Iranian medicinal plants, namely Oliveria decumbens, Thymus kotschyanus, Trachyspermum ammi, and Zataria multiflora were obtained. The LC-MS / MS analysis demonstrated that the major amino acids com...
