light, amber and dark colored kernels were rated by eye on a scale of 3 different genotypes (zh1, zh2 and zh3). the oil content was measured using the soxhlet extraction method, ranged from 57.26 to 68.29%, for zh1 (light) and zh2 (amber) respectively. fatty acid compositions were measured using gas chromatography. the main fatty acids were linoleic, oleic and linolenic acids, respectively. als...

Salt curing (Kencing) is a method used for preserving food products, including fish, that is believed to influence the quality and chemical composition of the finial product. The present study is focused on the alteration of protein quality and amino acid profile of Scomberoides commersonnianus after stacking during 190 days of shelf life in ambient temperature. A12 assorted of specimens were c...

The main objective for the present research is to assess effect of cyclic starvation and L- carnitine supplementation on growth (body final weight, hepatosomatic index (HSI), daily growth rate (DGI), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and voluntary feed intake (VFI)), body compositions (crude protein, crude lipid, ash and moisture), biochemical (plasma total protein, glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride...

This study was conducted to determine that carrot powder obtain by different drying methods (oven and vacuum-freeze dryer) of carrot unfit for human consumption that whether feed additives in animal nutrition or not. Carrots randomly divided 2 groups. First group was dried by using oven, second group was by using vacuum freeze dryer methods. Dried carrot prepared from fresh carrot was analysed ...

While corn contains only limited quantities of crude protein and amino acids, corn by-products often contain crude protein and amino acids in appreciable amounts. The reason for this difference is that corn by-products are often produced after processing that primarily removes the nitrogen-free extracts (i.e., the starch) from the corn kernel. Because starch is approximately 70% of the total co...

Gilaburu (Viburnum opulus L.) grown naturally in Anatolia. In this study, some physico-chemical (sugar, acid, protein, crude fat, crude fiber, ash etc.) characteristics and mineral composition of Gilaburu fruit have been investigated. The length, width, thickness, weight, total soluble solid, protein, crude ash, crude fiber and crude oil of fruit were found to be 1.12 cm, 1.58 cm, 1.87 cm, 0.87...

It was found that the partially purified beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase of Bacillus insolitus did not require the addition of FabD (malonyl-CoA:ACP transacylase, MAT) for the activity assay. This study therefore examined the necessity of FabD protein for in vitro branched-chain fatty acid (BCFA) biosynthesis by crude fatty acid synthetases (FAS) of Bacilli. To discover the involvement of FabD in th...

The study investigated the effect of Moringa seed flour on proximate, mineral and sensory properties bread. samples used for bread production were supplemented with defatted as follows: Wheat flour: A(100:0), B (95:5) C (90:10) D (85:15) E (80:20). result proximate composition ranged protein (15.66 to 17.16%), crude fibre (2.5 5.37%), ash (0.23 1.81%), moisture content (23.96 12.48%), fat (7.12...

A study was undertaken to evaluate the nutritive value and digestibility of Azolla in ruminants by in vitro techniques. The crude protein, crude fibre and ether extract contents were at a level of 21.37%, 12.5% and 2.3%, respectively. The neutral and acid detergent fibre levels were about 35.4 and 23.9%, respectively. The average in vitro dry matter digestibility, in vitro organic matter digest...
