Background: In the last few years, a marked decrease in male fertility has been reported. Environmental factors were recently suspected for this problem. The misuse of medicines especially antibiotics are among environmental factors that can affect reproductive system. Ciprofloxacin is a synthetic antibacterial agent belonging to the family of fluoroquinolones with a very broad spectrum effect ...

Background: While assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs) are considered to be safe, many concerns exist about the safety of these techniques. Two important and indispensable parts of these techniques are in vitro culture and vitrification. While much progress has been made in developing culture conditions, it remains suboptimal. In order to investigate the effect of culture medium on in vitro ...

This article reviews the degradability of chemically synthesized bioelastomers, mainly designed for soft tissue repair. These bioelastomers involve biodegradable polyurethanes, polyphosphazenes, linear and crosslinked poly(ether/ester)s, poly(epsilon-caprolactone) copolymers, poly(1,3-trimethylene carbonate) and their copolymers, poly(polyol sebacate)s, poly(diol-citrates) and poly(ester amide)...

two experiments were conducted to evaluate the crude protein fractionation, in vitro gas production and the biological effects of tannins in alfalfa silage treated with different levels of pistachio by-products (pb) extract. pb was soaked in water with a ratio of 1:5 (w/v) for 12 h. after filtering and concentrating, the crude extract was added to fresh alfalfa to a final concentration of 1%, 2...

Abstract Unlocking browse species in semi-arid regions can be a key to improving the livestock productivity. The research was conducted assess variation chemical composition and vitro dry matter degradability as influenced by seasonal (summer winter) changes. Leaves from ten randomly selected browsable trees sixteen ( Vachellia karroo , Senegalia nigrescens nilotica Balanites maughamii Berchemi...

The aim of this experiment was to investigate the beneficial effect monensin, tannic acid and cinnamon essential oil addition on sesame meal degradability by three-step in vitro method. experimental additives rumen, after rumen whole gastrointestinal tract significant (P<0.05). ruminal intestinal digestibility crude protein with range 76 84% 49 60%, respectively. increased (about 10%). Addit...
