prunus armeniaca l. (apricot) is a tree cultivated in different parts of the world. apricot kernel as a good dietary supplement has shown antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and other pharmacologic properties which suggest that it may be functional as an anticolitis agent. in this study we evaluated the effects of apricot kernel extract and oil on ulcerative colitis in rats. rats were fasted for 36 ...

This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of using L-threonine and reducing dietary levels of crude protein (CP) on egg production criteria in layers. Three hundred of Hy-Line W36 laying hens were used in this experiment. This experiment consisted of three experimental treatments with five replications in each. Experimental treatments included 3 diets with different levels of CP whi...

in order to evaluate the effect of feeding different levels of vermi-humus supplement (as a source of humic acid) on the performance of broiler chickens an experiment was conducted using 240 broiler chickens (ross 308) in a completely randomized design by four treatments (vermi-humus levels of 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 percent) and five replicates of 12 chickens per each for 42 day. the experimental tr...

an experiment was conducted using 640 day-old sexed commercial broiler chicks (ross 308 strain) from 10 to 49 days of age. the experimental design was a completely randomized factorial one. the experimental units (pens) contained 20 chicks each and were allotted at random to 4 dietary treatments × two sexes with 4 replicates per treatment. four dietary treatments were formulated based on corn a...

to evaluate the efficiency of nanocid as growth promoter in comparison antibiotics and with organic acids on performance and intestinal morphometric characteristics of broiler chickens, 240 male broiler chicks of one dayage (ross 308) were utilized in an experiment of a completely randomized design of 4 treatments and 4 replicates. the experimental treatments included: 1) control (no additives)...

Abstract This research was conducted in Toroq Experimental field station, Mashhad, Iran, for two successive cropping seasons (2000-2002), using split plot experimental design based on complete randomized blocks with three replications. Moisture stress treatments (at seven levels) were assigned to main plots, including: D1 ( full irrigation), D2 (no irrigation from one-leaf to double ridge) st...
