the presence of microbial load and high fiber content in various non conventional feedstuffs limit their utilization in poultry feed. in the present study, the feedstuffs were treated with acidified sodium chlorite (asc) and its impact on  the microbial load and metabolizable energy availability was assessed in  the chickens. the effect of supplementation of feed grade enzyme was also evaluated...

In order to measure the effect of antibacterial nano-covers, the direct contact of covers with meat products mixture was used as a control. Samples were contaminated with standard strains of gram-negative Escherichia coli and gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. The samples were compared at specified times (0, 24, 48, and 72 hours). Despite the samples had large numbe...

the objective of this research was to study the feasibility of a two stage continuous system employing anaerobic-aerobic microbial film for domestic wastewater treatment and the effect of iron on the behavior of sulfate reducing bacteria in anaerobic metabolism. a bench scale system with an anaerobic filter followed by aerobic fixed units used plastic media and was operated in up flow manner wi...

the effect of microbial load on the condition index of the edible oyster, saccostrea cucullata were analysed on monthly basis during 2010 and 2011 from the three different stations (namkhana, frasergaunge and sajnekhali) of indian sundarbans. the results showed significant variation with respect to microbial load between stations and seasons, which is reflected in the tissue of edible oyster. s...

in recent years, there has been an increasing interest in using food additives from natural sources to improve taste and also extend the shelf-life of semi-preserved foodstuffs. the aim of this study was to examine the chemical and microbiological changes promoted by a local marinating process in rainbow trout fillets during chilled storage. fish fillets were immersed in marinades and stored at...

Objective(s): The use of new technologies, which can be realized as nanotechnology, is a novel approach in this sector. Covers made of silver nanoparticles effectively prevent and reduce invasion of microorganisms, compared with other conventional covers. This study was conducted to determine the effects of nanosilver covers in comparison with other conventional covers. <stron...
