The effect of carcass weight, age at slaughter and sex on some chemical components was evaluated in twenty-two Boutsiko lambs (twelve females and ten males). Chemical composition of meat was expressed as percentage of fat, protein, collagen and moisture content. Measures of the four chemical components were taken by carcass cuts included shoulder, leg, racks, kidney, rear flank, breast ribs and...

an experiment was conducted to optimize consumption of zinc and evaluate of zinc effects on quantitative and qualitative traits of winter wheat under saline soil condition. it was done by three replications in randomized complete block design. the experiment had four treatments as control without zn, 40 kg.ha-1 zn as znso4, 80 kg.ha-1 zn as znso4 in soil and 120 kg.ha-1 zn as znso4 in soil. ele...

New criteria (full physiological value and preservation of the properties of drinking water) are scientifically substantiated. Also discussed are indices (minimal admissible and optimal levels of basic water mineralization and calcium content, standards of microelements such as boron and bromine content, content of individual groups of microorganisms, water temperature) for evaluating the quali...

The aim of the work was to obtain autolysates derived from spent brewer's yeast and demonstrate their potential capabilities as a natural and valuable ingredients intended for functional food and dietary supplements production. The research material consisted of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae which was the remains after the beer production process. In these autolysates the following analyses we...

during past few years, the cupressus arizonica has been abundantly planted in tehran, causing a significant increase of allergic diseases from the middle of winter to the beginning of spring. the aim of this study was the comparison of pollen protein content in two major varieties of c. arizonica planted in tehran, including c. arizonica var. arizonica and c. arizonica var. glabra , in order to...

Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and wheat (Triticum sativum L.) were either sole cropped or intercropped in a complete design of five relative proportions and five density levels to determine the effects of interspecific interaction in an intercrop on wheat baking quality. It is shown how pea interspecific competitive ability for factors such as light and water results in an increase in wheat prot...

Corncobs are one of the agricultural wastes that have nutritional and functional content. The advantages processing corn cobs into powder include durability, a smaller volume, lighter weight, making it easier to pack transport. One important steps in is drying determine durability quality powder. This study aimed different durations corncobs powders their effect on physical, nutritional, phytoc...

in order to study the effect of irrigation on fatty acid composition, oil and protein content of sunflower cultivars included azargol, allstar, alison and euroflor, an experiment was conducted at experimental field of the agricultural faculty of bu-ali sina university in 2007. treatments were arranged on split plot based on randomized complete block with three replications. the irrigation treat...

particle size, board density and adhesive content are the most important factors, influencing on physical and mechanical properties of particleboard. in this study the effects of density, adhesive content and particle size on withdrawal strength of particleboard made from populus (populus alba) particles have been studied. three levels of density including 0.65, 0.7, and 0.75 g/cm3, three level...
