the objective of this study was to investigate the effects of summer savory essential oil (sseo) with cereals (based on barley or corn) on performance, rumen volatile fatty acid concentrations and some blood parameters of west azerbaijan native kids. in a randomized complete block design with a 3×2 factorial (0, 200 and 400 mg/d of sseo × barley or corn grain based diets) arrangement with 6 rep...

Soybean oil contains 14 fatty acids and five of them, C16:0, C18:0, C18:1, C18:2, and C18:3, are considered essential fatty acids for proper human nutrition. Increasing the oil content and improving the ratio of the various fatty acids in soybeans is a goal for many breeding programs. The objective of this research was to evaluate the relationship between grain yield, oil content, and fatty aci...

Water-distilled essential oil from the aerial parts of Dipsacus japonicus Miq. (Dipsacaceae) at the flowering stage was analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Forty-six compounds, accounting for 96.76% of the total oil, were identified and the main compounds of the essential oil were linalool (11.78%), trans-geraniol (8.58%), 1,8-cineole (7.91%), beta-caryophyllene (5.58%), a...

Following an oil spill on a sandy shoreline, an alternative technique to sediment excavation consists in relocating the contaminated sediment into the surf zone. The sediments are thus subjected to the natural cleaning action of the sea. Waves break down the piles of oily sand, separate the oil from the sediment, spread out the sediment over the beach and clean it by agitation and abrasion, whi...
