Objective: Turmeric (Curcuma Longa Linn) is a medicinal plant that contains curcumin. There is a growing interest in using curcumin powder (CP) as feed additives for antioxidative and antimicrobial properties to improve human health. This study was conducted to determine the appropriate levels of CP on blood parameters, immunity, and histology of jejunum in hens. Materials and Methods: A total ...

The influences of cage design features, including feeder design and space, cage depth, cage area, stocking density, and the placement of resources, on production parameters of White Leghorns have not been fully assessed under commercial conditions. Assessing all these variables in a traditional experimental study would be difficult. An epidemiological approach, using variability in cage design ...

The effects of different dietary electrolyte balance (DEB) on growth performance, nitrogen (N) metabolism and some blood biochemical parameters were investigated in 2 to 3 months old growing rabbits. A total of 150 growing rabbits of 2 months age were randomly divided into five groups according to average body weight, with 30 rabbits in each group. The DEB levels of the five experimental diets ...

This experiment was conducted to assess the effect of chicken genotype on the growth performance, feed intake and feed conversion efficiency of the progenies resulting from purebred (Giriraja (Gr) X Giriraja (Gr)), straight (Gr male X Alpha female), reciprocal (Alpha male X Gr female) and Alpha male X White Leghorn (WL) female crosses. Data obtained on body weight, body length, breast girth, ke...

the present experiment was conducted to determine nutritional values of wild pistachio trees (p. khinjuk) leaves it's use it in the diet of sheep. initially chemical composition of p. khinjuk leaf was determined. the diets containing 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30% of p. khinjuk leaf were prepared and used for sheep to determine the best replacement level of it with corn silage. fermentation ...

this study evaluated the effects of 0.25% activated charcoal added to sesame seed meal (ssm) in partial replacement of soybean meal (sbm) of juvenile clarias gariepinus diet on growth and haematological parameters for 70 day experimental period. six experimental diets were formulated as: control diet 1 (100% ssm without activated charcoal), control diet 2 (100% ssm plus 0.25% activated charcoal...

non-invasive ultrasound surgeries such as high intensity focused ultrasound have been developed to treat tumors or to stop bleeding. in this technique, incorporation of a suitable imaging modality to monitor and control the treatments is essential so several imaging methods such as x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound imaging have been proposed to monitor the induced thermal lesions...
