the present study was carried out to determine the effects of fish oil long-chain fatty acids and thyme essence supplementation on performance and carcass traits in mahabadi goat kids. twenty-eight mahabadi goat kids (average initial bw of 17/8 ± 2/8 kg, 4-5mo) were randomly assigned to four treatments of: 1. control (basal diet), 2. 0.2% thyme essence, 3. 2% fish oil, and 4. 2% fish oil +0.2% ...

in this study, extracts and essential oils of black and red pepper and thyme were tested for antibacterial activity against escherichia coli o157:h7 andstaphylococcus aureus. black and red pepper and thyme were provided from iranian agricultural researches center. 2 g of each plant powder was added to 10 cc ethanol 96°. after 24 h, the crude extract was separated as an alcoholic extract and con...

A simple and rapid Fourier Transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy method was developed to determine the main essential oil components (carvacrol, thymol and p-cymene) in the antimicrobial LDPE films incorporated with oregano (Origanum vulgare) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) essential oils. The ATR-FTIR spectrum of pure active components (carvacrol, thymol and p-cymene) was characterized, and the r...

background & aim: salvia hydrangea is one of the medicinal plants belonging to lamiaceae family. medicinal plants can be marketed as fresh or dried products; however aromatic plants are often dried before extraction to reduce moisture content. the aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of different drying methods on qualitative and quantitative changes in essential oil of sage. experiment...

In the Mediterranean zone semi-natural vegetation and diverse mountain-cropping systems have been converted into monocultures with low tree densities, leaving the soil unprotected. Soil loss and runoff over a three-year period were monitored in hillside erosion plots (35% slope and 144 m 2 in area) with almond (Prunus amygdalus) trees under three soil-management systems: no-tillage with sage (S...

The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation of dried aerial parts of Salvia sclarea L. plants, regenerated in vitro and reproduced from seeds, were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The oils from in vitro and in vivo plants were compared in respect to their chemical composition as well as antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities. The chemical profiles of both oils were very similar, although the yie...
