effects of condensed tannins (ct) on crude protein availability in sainfoin hay was investigated according to most popular ruminant feeding systems. different treatments including polyethylene glycol (6000 mw), sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, potassium permanganate, wood ash, water and urea, were applied for deactivation of ct crude protein fractioning was determined using nylon bag techn...

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of replacing barley with different levels of ground date seeds (GDS) in the diet (0, 15, 3o and 45%) on performance of local growing male goats. Sixteen local male kids (average live weight 16.1±1.41 kg) were allocated randomly to four treatments (4 animal/treatment). The trial consisted of a 14 day acclimatization period followed by a 60-day m...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of osmotic pretreatments prior to drying and different drying methods on nutritional quality of dried mushroom slices. The experiment consisted of sun, solar, and oven drying after dipping the slices in salt solutions of 5 and 10% concentrations for 50 minutes, the control being untreated mushroom sample. Significant differenc...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is the third-largest carbohydrate food source in tropical region after rice and corn.
