In this article, live weight and body size parameters of hybrid lambs obtained from inbreeding F2 sheep with Hisar native breed genotypes were higher than those pure lambs. These results showed that improvement selection traits using rams is great scientific practical value. The the was 5.62 kg at birth, females 5.17 kg, respectively. group I, 0.45 or 8.7%, 0.34 7.2% purebred heifers. However, ...

An investigation of Vemo Herb® additive on the forage consumption rate in Japanese quail (Pharaoh breed) has been conducted. The experiment was carried out for 10 weeks with 52 female and 16 male sexually matured Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) distributed in four groups: control group (without additive), first experimental group 4 mg*kg of live weight for 10 weeks; second experime...

1. Pullets were given from 1-d-old diets containing 1-6, 4-1, 8-1 and 12-0 g Mg/kg. Only small effects of these diets on live weight, food consumption, egg number, egg weights or egg-shell thickness were observed except at the highest level (12-0 Mg/kg) which caused diarrhoea and an appreciable lowering of the live weight of growing pullets. A further group was given from point-of-lay a diet co...

Total Body Water (TBW) was measured in a group of 20 healthy adult Indian men and 10 women by the deuterated water dilution technique and their body composition was determined by applying a hydration factor of 0.7194 for fat free mass (FFM). The TBW in the male subjects whose mean body weight was 49.8 +/- 6.7 kg, was 60.6 +/- 3.2% of body weight (range 55.8%-65.4%), from which a FFM of 41.9 +/-...

conclusions ramadan fasting resulted in weight loss even it was only a temporary effect, as the weight was quickly regained within one month after fasting. the catabolism catabolic state, which is related to protein loss, was not triggered during ramadan fasting. further research is needed to evaluate the effects of weight loss during ramadan fasting in healthy individuals. results by the 28th ...

In order to attain heavier live weight without impairing pork or sensory quality characteristics, carcass performance, muscle fiber, pork quality, and sensory quality characteristics were compared among the heavy weight (HW, average live weight of 130.5 kg), medium weight (MW, average weight of 111.1 kg), and light weight (LW, average weight of 96.3 kg) pigs at time of slaughter. The loin eye a...

This work aimed to study the effect of two different levels of ration energy supplemented with Alpinia officinarum. Rabbits were classified into six equal groups (G1-G6). The 1 and 4 groups received basal ration with 100 % and 90 % energy requirement and served as first and second control respectively. The 2 and the 3 groups received basal ration with 100 % energy requirement supplemented with ...

Nine days old male was admitted to the intensive care unit because of the jaundice and suspicious cardiac disease. He was delivered at 3gf5 weeks of gestation without peripartum events. His birth weight was 3.4kg. He was the second baby with healthy brother. The family history was not contributory. He was initially transferred to the other hospital because of the jaundice at 2 days of age. Card...

INTRODUCTION The use of peripheral hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) is the cell choice in autologous transplantation. The classic dose of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) for mobilization is a single daily dose of 10μg/kg of patient body weight. There is a theory that higher doses of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor applied twice daily could increase the number of CD34(+)...

Spanish x Boer (n = 16) and Spanish x Kiko (n = 18) wethers (7 mo) and bucklings (5 mo) were harvested under USDA inspection to evaluate the effect of dam breed on carcass traits of crossbred kids. Boer and Kiko dams, respectively, originated from five and seven seedstock farms. Each dam was purebred or fullblood (93.75 to 100%). Traits of interest included live weight and conformation score, c...
