Randomly selected 320 fingerling of Labeo rohita were collected from Faheem fish farm, Mattital Road, Multan. Groups of 40 fish each were exposed to subleathal concentration of imidacloprid (120 mg L-1) under short (2, 4 and 8 days) and long term (16, 32 and 64 days) conditions to access the effect of this most extensively used pesticide on the body composition parameters of economically most i...

length-weight relationship is the most commonly used analysis which has been used for several purposes in fisheries field among which estimation of weight from length is the most popular one. the present study has been performed to analyze the length-weight relationship of mystus tengara , a freshwater catfish of indian subcontinent. total length and body weight of the studied specimens have be...

an experiment was conducted on broiler chickens to study the effects of conjugated linoleic acid (cla), fish oil, both at 7% of the diet, or their mixtures at 3.5% of the diet, on the performance, carcass traits and intestinal morphology of broiler chickens. the chicks fed with 7% fish oil or 7% cla diets, were found to have an inferior weight gain in grower and finisher phases, respectively. a...

this study was carried out to evaluate the effects of different dietary protein (30, 35, 40%) and lipid levels (10, 12, 14%) on growth performance and physiological changes of juveniles caspian kutum (rutilus frisii kutum). six hundred and seventy five fish (1.15 ± 0.01 g) were distributed into 27 aquaria (45 l) and were fed four times daily for 8 weeks. interaction between protein and lipid di...

analysis without significantly affecting intestine weight o r length. If the source of carcasses is unknown, then an analysis of small intestine weight, either as a measure of intestine size o r to examine the effects of dietary, seasonal, sex, o r age differences, should be treated with caution. If the same information can be gained by examining intestine length, this is preferred. Nevertheles...

in this study the effects of plant growth regulators including; ga3 (0 and 50 mg/l) and ethephon (0 and 500 mg/l) were studied on the quality properties of two grape cultivars (perlette and yaghuti). at the harvest time, some physicochemical characteristics such as fruit cluster weight, fruit diameter, length, volume and l/d ratio, flesh firmness, fresh weight, ta, ph, tss and fruit color were ...


 This research was conducted with the aim of knowing effect using protein concentrate based on broiler farm waste (KPLA) in rations weight loss and digestive organ weight. The used a completely randomi- zed design (CRD) three treatments four replications. treatment is, A: use 0% KPLA, B: 12% KPLA C: 24% KPLA. 12 pigs finisher phase an average body 66.6 ± 7.74 kg. parameters were loss, sma...

this experiment was conducted to examine effects of different levels of niacin on the gut and liver histology and also some activity of the liver enzymes in the blood serum of common carp. a control diet (containing 30 mg niacin kg-1 commercial diet) and four other diets were prepared which had 50, 70, 90 and 110 mg niacin per kg of commercial diet, added by spraying. fish with initial average ...
