Recent studies have dealt about the phenolic compounds and nutraceutical properties of Sanguisorba minor Scop possibility their domestication to standardise plant production. However, it is also known that storage conditions can affect bioactive present in plants. Thus, wild (W) domesticated (F1, F2, F3) S. samples were exposed different drying methods (oven-drying at 60 °C until constant weigh...

Context High concentrations of crude protein in ruminant diets may lead to excessive production ruminal ammonia, which stress the animal’s metabolism and impact nitrogen efficiency. This become a problem zero-concentrate feeding systems when pasture grass is rich protein. Polyphenols such as tannins protect part dietary from degradation thus inhibit ammonia formation. Aims The present study scr...

Objective: Tyrosinase as the key enzyme in melanin biosynthesis, involves in determining the color of mammalian skin and hair. A variety of dermatological disorders, come up from an unnecessary level of epidermal pigmentation. Plants are low-cost and rich sources of active compounds.  Methods: More than seventy native plants collected from the central region of Kurdistan province collected. Inh...

Range forage of Vicia variabilis, Astragalus spp., Medicago sativa, Prangos uloptera and Sanguisorba minor was sampled during three phenological stages from the controlled rangeland stations in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, Iran. Samples were analyzed for the determination of Crude Protein (CP%), Ether Extract (EE), Crude Fiber (CF), total Ash, Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), Acid Detergen...
