This study was carried out to investigate the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) value of protein, amino acid and energy and body amino acid composition of rainbow trout fed solvent extracted soybean meal (SBM) and full-fat soybean meal (FFS) partly replacing fish meal (FM) in diets. Five iso nitrogenous (average 50.36% crude protein) and energetic (4294 kcal/kg total energy) diets wer...

The apparent ileal amino acid digestibility in 15 meat and bone samples was compared in growing broiler chickens and growing laboratory rat. The animals were given a diet containing meat and bone meal as the sole source of protein. All diets contained chromic oxide as the indigestible marker to calculate the digestibility estimates. Comparison of digestibility data shows that, for all dispensab...

quantitative traits locus for milk production traits has been described on centromeric end of bovine chromosome 14. reports name the acyl coa: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (dgat1) gene as a potential candidate gene with dinucleotide substitution (aa to gc) in exon viii which causes the change of lysine to alanine in amino acid (k232a).the aim of the present study was to estimate the frequency...

abstract        background and objective: measurement of amino acids is an important tool for metabolic studies and evaluation of patients’ clinical condition. the aim of this study was to analyze the plasma amino acids using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography techniques (rp-hplc) with pre-column derivatization by o-phthalaldehyde (opa) in combination with 3- mercaptopropionic...

PURPOSE Some 30% of cases of congenital cataract are genetic in origin, usually transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. The molecular defects underlying some of these autosomal dominant cases have been identified and were demonstrated to be mostly mutations in crystallin genes. The autosomal recessive form of the disease is less frequent. To date, only four genes and three loci have been as...

BACKGROUND The limited data available on the role of insulin on maternal-fetal transport of amino acids prompted us to undertake this study. METHODS Transport kinetics of a model amino acid, alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) was investigated in perfusion of isolated human placental lobules in vitro in non steady-state conditions and the effect of therapeutic dose of insulin was assessed in par...

CTP:phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase (ECT) is considered to be the regulatory enzyme in the CDP-ethanolamine pathway of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) biosynthesis. The ECT cDNA of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii encodes a protein of 443 amino acid residues, which is longer than the same protein in yeast, rat or human. The translated product of cloned cDNA was expressed as a fusion protein in ...

the oil and protein content of three varieties of water melon seeds namely, chillian black, dixy queen and charlston gray were determined. the soluble proteins were studied and measured by paper chromatography and amino acid analyzer. the results indicated that oil content of the seeds was 43, 53 and 45% and protein content was 27, 23, and 34% respectively. the soluble proteins contained all th...
