In the present study, we identified free amino acid (FAA) contents and chemical composition in four populations of Salmo trutta macrostigma living in Mediterranean region of Turkey. In addition, taste impacts of FAAs were evaluated by taste active values. Moisture, protein, fat and ash content were found in the ranges of 75.49 - 79.59 %, 16.94 - 19.97 %, 1.58 - 3.75 % and, 1.39 - 1.56 %, respec...

Among the most important problems of pistachio are physiological disorders such as fruit abscission and production of blank nuts. Environmental stresses and inadequate nutrition during flowering time have increased these problems in recent years. In order to evaluate the effects of foliar treatments with polyamines and other compounds (amino acids and ascorbic acid) on quantitative and qualitat...

A total of eighteen amino acids were determined quantitatively in the seminal plasma and spermatozoa of fowl semen. Glutamic acid was the major component in both fractions. In the spermatozoan fraction, only six amino acids were detected, namely glutamic acid, lysine, arginine, serine, aspartic acid and threonine. Except for serine and lysine, the amino acid concentrations in the spermatozoan f...

Infectious bronchitis (IB) virus genome codes for four structural proteins, among which the S1 subunit of spike glycoprotein comprises the major epitopes to induce neutralizing antibodies. This study involved the comparison of the full S1 sequences of five IB viruses, namely two Massachusetts and three 793/B serotypes, isolated from IB outbreaks during 2001-2002, with all other Iranian an...

This study aims to examine the nutritional composition (amino acid and fatty acid) fillet color of commercially produced cultured fish Black Sea. All species [(sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), sea bream (Sparus aurata), turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), large rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)] were collected from Sea’s aquaculture sites in 2020. Total amino values fillets listed as bream>...

conclusions results of the current study indicated that aconitase was not a suitable target to design new anti-fungal drugs that selectively block this enzyme. materials and methods candida krusei (atcc: 6258) aconitase gene was determined by 5’rapid amplification of cdna ends (race) method and degenerate polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and analyzed using bioinformatics softwares. objectives th...

The role of perfusate amino acid concentrations in regulating rates of protein synthesis was investigated using the perfused rat liver. Livers from fed rats were perfused with a nonrecirculating medium and the incorporation of [3H]leucine into albumin and total protein was determined under conditions where the leucyl-tRNALeu and perfusate leucine specific activities were equal and constant. Dur...

Acute endurance exercise results in the oxidation of several amino acids. The total amount of amino acid oxidation during endurance exercise amounts to only 1-6% of the total energy cost of exercise. The branched chain amino acid, leucine, has been most often studied in relation to endurance exercise. Leucine is oxidized by the enzyme, branched-chain oxo-acid dehydrogenase (BCOAD). BCOAD is rel...

Amino acid imbalances refer to the deleterious effects that occur when a second-limiting amino acid or mixture of amino acid lacking a particular limiting amino acid is supplemented in diets marginal in one or more indispensable amino acids. In spite of variation in the conditions that have been used to induce amino acid imbalances, such as protein level in the diet, the extent of difference in...

The disappearance of total N, non-protein-N and amino acid-N after washing, rumen incubation and intestinal passage of sugarbeet pulp, maize-gluten feed, maize feed meal, palm kernel meal, soyabean hulls, soyabean meal, grass silage, maize silage and concentrate was measured in four dairy cows using nylon-bag techniques. Disappearance of amino acid-N after washing varied between feedstuffs from...
