our objective was to examine the effect of inclusion of dried de-oiled savory (satureja khuzistanica; dds) on production performance and fatty acids composition of longissimus muscle (lm) of finishing lambs. 30 farhani lambs with average body weight of 33.6±1.4 kg were used. the lambs were randomly divided into five groups and individually fed with the experimental diets. in the experimental di...

background: the aim of this study was to compare the antibacterial efficacy of endemic satureja khuzistanica jamzad (skj) essential oil as root canal irrigation versus 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and 2% chlorhexidine gluconate.     methods: in current in vitro experimental study, fifty four single-rooted teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups of 9 samples: 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (naocl), 2% c...

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of Satureja khuzistanica essential oils (SKEO) on performance, serum metabolites and differential counts of white blood cells in broiler chickens. A total of 280 one-day-old straight-run Cobb 500 broiler chickens were allocated into seven treatment groups with four replicates of 10 birds each from day 1 to 42 of age. The birds were continuously...

Green biosynthesis of silver - functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotube (Ag/FMWCNT) nanohybride from silver nitrate solution using water extract of Satureja hortensis L as reducing agent and FMWCNT as anchoring agent at room condition was succesfully carried out. Water-soluble organics present in the plant materials were mainly responsible for the reduction of silver ions to nano-sized Ag par...

Satureja genus presents 12 aromatic species in Iran, eight of which are endemic. Because of the several usages of Satureja species or their oils in different industries, we were interested to study the oil content and composition of Iranian Satureja species. In this research, the essential oil content and composition of two endemic species (S. edmondi and S. isophylla) were investigated. Essent...
