in this experiment two hundreds one day old broiler chicks (ross 308) in 5 treatments and 4 replicates were used based a completely randomized design. experimental treatments were: control treatment (basal diet), clove essential oil (ceo) at different levels (100, 300 and 500 mg/kg + basal diet) and 600 mg/kg flavophospholipol antibiotics (fpa) + basal diet. results showed that feed intake was ...

this experiment was conducted to study of using different level and treatments of common vetch (visia sativa) on broiler performance in a completely randomized design with 10 treatments, 4 replications and 10 chicks in each, using 400 cobb500 broiler chicks. treatments were: corn-soybean meal based diet as control , and unprocessed or processed common vetch seed (water or autoclaving) each at 3...

This study aimed to evaluate whole white lupin (cv. Amiga) seeds as an alternative dietary crude protein source to soybean and sunflower meal. Diets contained soybean meal (10%, SBM diet), sunflower meal (17%, SFM diet) or white lupin seeds (15%, WL diet) as the main protein source. The experimental diets were similar in the level of crude protein (16.2%), starch (15.0%), fat (4.6%) and in the ...

Two experiments were performed to study Phe imbalance and toxicity in 1-wk-old Babcock B380 chicks resulting from the addition of either a mixture of indispensable amino acids lacking Phe (IAA - Phe) or excess Phe to a diet that was nutritionally adequate in Phe. Chicks received a preexperimental semipurified diet for 1 wk and experimental diets from 7 to 14 d of age. In the first experiment, t...

the effects of dietary vitamin e levels on mucosal maltase and alkaline phosphatase (alp) enzyme activities and on the amount of mucosal malonyldialdehyde (mda) in broiler chickens were studied in the present study. one hundred and eighty of day old male broiler chicks (ross 308 strain) were randomly assigned into five groups, each with three replicates and 12 chicks in each replicate. chickens...

In the present investigation we researched the effects of low calorie diet without protein restriction on the renal function and glomerular injury of uninephrectomized spontaneously hypertensive rats. We compared the findings with those that occurred in two different groups of uninephrectomized spontaneously hypertensive rats: one treated with oral hydralazine (10 mg/kg per day) and a second fe...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary Pediococcus acidilactici and folic acid (FA) and their combinations on growth performance, haematological parameters and non-specific immune response of Acipenser nudiventris. 210 individuals (initial body weight: 12.84± 1.53g) were fed seven practical diets: the basal diet as the control diet was supplemented with two levels of P <...
