Essential oils from aerial parts of Mentha spicata, was obtained by steam destillation using a Clevenger-type system. These oils were screened for antibacterial and anti-Candida albicans activity using bioautographic method. A fiel experiments was laid out in agricultural research farm, city Namin, Ardabil province, Iran in 2013. Experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block with seve...

wheat straw, as an animal feed source, is of a low nutritional value, which can be enriched through a process of urea treatment. this process is the rewetting of the straw to the point of increasing its moisture content up to 30-50 percent using urea solution. the conventional method of treatment is a laborious, tedious and time consuming task. to facilitate this process some of these operation...

Five Angus x Hereford steers with ruminal and duodenal fistulas were used in a 5 x 5 Latin square to determine effects of increasing the proportion of urea in supplemental degradable intake protein (DIP) on intake, fermentation, and digestion. Steers had ad libitum access to low-quality, tallgrass-prairie forage (2.4% CP, 76% NDF). Supplemental DIP (380 g/d) was from sodium caseinate and(or) ur...

BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori is implicated as the causative agent for most duodenal and gastric ulcers. Invasive (endoscopy and biopsy) and noninvasive (serology, breath test) methods are currently available for definitive diagnosis of infectious peptic ulcer disease. METHODS Twenty-six patients with chronic gastritis symptoms underwent upper endoscopy, biopsy, rapid urease test, and [14C]u...

Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers, commonly called Bermuda grass is one among the most used warm season grasses which can withstand drought stress and produce quality turf. Establishing high turf a key management concern. The selection of suitable method its establishment precise nutrient are first important factors for well-established lawn. N has greatest impact on growth all nutrients, an appropria...

The treatments consisted of chopping sugar cane stalk coarsely (10 to 20 mm particle size) or finely (less than 5 mm). The chopped cane stalk was mixed with chopped cane tops ( 40 to 50 mm particle size) in the ratio 75: 25. A solution of urea/molasses (200 g urea/kg solution) was added to the cane at the rate of 50 g/kg of fresh cane. The animals also received 600 g/d cotton seed meal and 100 ...

An experiment was conducted to determine the relationship between nitrogen intake and testicular urea content. Twenty ram lambs of fat-tailed Iranian native breed were used in this study. The mean (±SD) age and body weight of the lambs were 180±20 days and 36.7±6.3 kg, respectively. The lambs were divided in to five groups of equal size, and received a ration containing a single protein source;...
