the present study was designed to evaluate blood factors in the flower horn fishes that were fed with different levels of hydrolyzed cow skin. 216 fishes with average weight and length, respectively, 0.95 ± 0.2 (g) and 3.7 ± 0.2 (cm) during the 100-days period of experiment were fed. results showed that in the treatments fed diets containing 40% hydrolyzed cow skin, number of rbc with mean  (2....

1. The deposition of fat and protein and the utilization of energy by growing rats offered diets ad lib. or in controlled amounts by gastric intubation has been investigated. Diets contained 50, 75, 100 or 200 g protein/kg, mainly as casein. 2. Gain of body-weight and protein increased with increasing dietary protein concentration when animals received the same energy intake, although the rever...

in this study, in vitro non-symbiotic germination of self pollinated seeds, protocorms survival percentage and protocorms growth of phalaenopsis ‘kyoto’ were investigated. for this purpose, five different modified media include vasin and went (vw), murashing and skoog (ms), ½ ms, knudson c (kc), fast that supplemented with two g/l peptone, 15 percent sterile coconut water or two g/l peptone tog...

We have examined the effects of various mannans, glycoproteins, oligosaccharides, monosaccharides, and sugar phosphates on the binding and phagocytosis of yeast cell walls (zymosan) by mouse peritoneal macrophages. A phosphonomannan (PO(4):mannose ratio = 1:8:6) from kloeckera brevis was the most potent inhibitor tested; it inhibited binding and phagocytosis by 50 percent at concentrations of a...

This study was carried out to investigate the modulatory effects of dietary methionine and fish oil on immune response, plasma fatty acid profile, and blood parameters of infectious bursal disease (IBD) challenged broiler chickens. A total of 300 one-day-old male broiler chicks were assigned to one of six dietary treatment groups in a 3 × 2 factorial arrangement. There were three levels of fish...

the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of supplementation of different level protein diets with rumen protected methionine and lysine on performance and ruminal parameters in holstein dairy cows when in their early lactation. twenty one dairy cows in their early lactations were assigned to three treatments in a randomized block design experiment of a 35-d duration period. diets...

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary artichoke supplementation on performance, carcass traits and some blood parameters of broiler chickens. A total of 300, one day old broiler chicks (Ross-308) were randomly allocated to 1 of 4 dietary treatments including: basal diet (control), basal diet supplemented with 1.5 or 3 percent of Artichoke powder and also with 300...
