This study quantified alterations in root dentin permeability after exposure to different acid beverages. Twenty-five third molars were sectioned below the cementoenamel junction, the root segment was collected, and the pulp tissue was removed. The root segments were connected to a hydraulic pressure apparatus to measure the permeability of root dentin after the following sequential steps, with...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different proportions of lemon bee brush essential oil on growth performance, carcass composition, and hematology and biochemical parameters of common carp (cyprinus carpio). common carp with an average weight of 8 ± 0.2 g were fed for one month with a diet supplemented with lemon beebrush essential oil (0.15 and 0.3 ml) and with normal diet a...

The beneficial uses of lemon juice have been reported from ages. Such uses are however more of speculations than investigation. In this study, the actions of lemon juice on antioxidant status and lipid profile in wistar rats were investigated. Thirty rats were randomized into two groups of fifteen rats each. The first group (control) received distilled water and the second group was given lemon...

Group behaviours are widespread among fish but comparatively little is known about the interactions between free-ranging individuals and how these might change across different spatio-temporal scales. This is largely due to the difficulty of observing wild fish groups directly underwater over long enough time periods to quantify group structure and individual associations. Here we describe the ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary lemon polyphenols on high-fat diet-induced obesity in mice, and on the regulation of the expression of the genes involved in lipid metabolism to elucidate the mechanisms. Mice were divided into three groups and fed either a low fat diet (LF) or a high fat diet (HF) or a high fat diet supplemented with 0.5% w/w lemon polyphenols (LP)...

in order to investigate effects of partial replacement of starch with neutral detergent soluble fiber (ndsf) on weekly weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, digestibility and some histopathological changes of rumen, 16 lambs were used in completely randomized design. the experimental period was 70 days. dietary treatments were 1- control (high starch), 2- beet pulp, 18 percent, 3- be...
