background: to evaluate the radioprotective potential of punica granatum fruit rind extract (pgre) in mouse testes. materials and methods: adult male mice were divided into four groups. group i was kept without any treatment. group ii was irradiated with 8gy co60 gamma irradiation and group iii was given pgre one hour before irradiation. group iv was fed with pgre at the rate of 10 mg/kg body w...

in the current study, whey protein- pullulan- clay nanocomposite films are prepared by casting method. the effect of nanoclay at three concentrations (1%, 3% and 5%) on physical properties such as moisture content, solubility in water, water vapor permeability and transparency of whey protein- pullulan composite films investigated. the results show that the effect of nanoparticles on composite ...

an experiment was carried out to evaluate how interactions between forage to concentrate ratio and dietary crude protein level may alter nitrogen efficiency and ut-b expression in growing baluchi male lambs. four baluchi male lambs [30 ± 2 kg bw] were used in a 4 × 4 latin square design with 28-d periods and a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of dietary treatments. the treatments fed forage: concent...

Fish Protein Concentrate (FPC) is a healthy, sustainable and high nutritive product that produced from fish and protein and other nutrients are more concentrated than in the fresh fish. The aim of this research is to study the sustainability of FPC produced from Kilka (combination of three Caspian Sea Kilka species, Clupeonella engrauliformis, C. grimmi and C. cultriventris which were not ident...

in order to study the effects of potassium application on uptake and allocation of nitrogen and seed protein on two lentil cultivars in rain-fed condition a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at ardabil research center for agriculture and natural resources, in 2008. three potassium levels (0, 30 and 60 kg.ha-1), three nitrogen le...

to clarify the underlying physiological mechanism of gibberellic acid (ga) in cold tolerance, the effects of exogenous ga3 on malondialdehyde (mda), osmoregulation substances and endogenous hormones levels in the tiller nodes of two wheat cultivars, namely, dongnongdongmai 1 (a cold insensitive cultivar) and jimai 22 (a cold sensitive cultivar), were investigated at three periods of cold winter...

effect of zinc cyanide on protein and certain metabolites content and some enzymes activitieswas evaluated in liver, muscle and gill tissues of the freshwater fish, cirrhinus mrigala, during exposure andfollowing cessation of exposure. fish exhibited significant alterations in the biochemical parameters in alltissues studied. levels of total protein decreased in all tissues, where as free amino...
