Opting an appropriate dietary regime has been and will be one of the simplest ways of providing health for and preventing disorders of human beings. Cardiovascular diseases-one of the most prevalent causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide-are in particular related to diet. Atherosclerosis, the most common pathogenic process of cardiovascular disease, is closely connected with food ingredien...

to study allelopathic effects of iranian walnut (juglans regia l.) on germination and initial growth of purslane (portulaca oleracea) and redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus) an experiment was conducted in shahed university. the result showed that fresh leaf had negatively effected on radicle length. also, with increasing extract concentrations of persian walnut, the seed germination and se...

the experiment was to study the effects of replacing soybean meal by rubber seed meal on growth, economics and carcass characteristics of broiler. a total of 150 day-old commercial broiler (cobb-500) was reared for a period of 35 days. there were five treatments including t0 (without rubber seed meal), t1 (10% rubber seed meal), t2 (20% rubber seed meal), and t3 (30% rubber seed meal) and t4 (4...

this experiment was performed to investigate whether feeding xylose-treated soybean meal (xsbm) or corn gluten meal (cgm) is economically better under field conditions. ninety-four multiparous early lactating holstein cows (55±5 days in milk and 2.82±0.41 body condition score) were used in a completely randomized design. cows were randomly assigned to one of two treatments: xsbm or cgm as the m...

walnut is one of the important products in kerman province and baft town is the main area of ‎walnut orchards. so the technical, allocative and economical efficiency of walnut farmers computed ‎assign the degree of farmer’s success in the optimum allocation of their resources. at first the ‎proper production function was estimated, and then stochastic frontier production and technical, ‎efficie...

This study was performed to determine the optimum level of soybean meal diets for two banded sea bream for growth performance, nutrient utilization, body composition and serum biochemistry. Two banded seabream were fed five experimental diets which were formulated replace fish meal by soybean meal at 0, 20, 30, 40 and 50%. Up to 40% of dietary fish meal was successfully replaced with no growth...

The influence of pH of walnut oil emulsions on droplet morphology, droplet size distribution, time and temperature stability, and rheological properties has been studied. It has been found that walnut oil based emulsions form a metastable gel-like microstructure at steady conditions revealed by a linear viscoelastic response at low deformations. Flow curves of investigated emulsions demonstrate...

This study was done to investigate the interaction effect of the mixture of each pair of traditional medicinal plants including: Sage (Salvia officinalis), Hawthorn (Crataegusoxyacantha), Walnut Leaf (Juglansregia L.), Red Cabbage (Brassica oleracea), and Yellow Sweet Clover (Melilotus officinalis) on the antioxidant activities and free radical scavenging by using DPPH (2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhy...

The primary goal of the Walnut Improvement Program, which was initiated in 1982 as a cooperative effort between USDA-ARS and U.C. Davis, is to develop germplasm with increased resistance or tolerance to the two major diseases limiting commercial production of Persian walnuts. These are the blackline and the Phytophthora root and crown rot diseases. Also under the auspices of this program are th...
