BACKGROUND Almost all foals develop transient diarrhoea within the first weeks of life. Studies indicated different viral, bacterial, and parasitic causes, such as rotavirus, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli, and Cryptosporidium are discussed. But little is known about the development of intestinal microflora in foals. The present study investigated whether the supplementation with Bac...

Objective(s): The aim of this study was to evaluate the antidiabetic potential Pseudocedrela kotschyi leaf decoction by making a comparison between extracts harvested over three months.
 Design: This is done through few experiences. After quantification total polyphenols folin-Ciocalteu reagent method, antioxidant activities were tested with ABTS, DPPH and FRAP essays. Then, glucose oxidas...

Quantifying evapotranspiration and drainage losses is essential for improving irrigation efficiency. The FAO-56 the most popular method computing crop evapotranspiration. There is, however, a need locally derived coefficients (Kc) with high temporal resolution to reduce errors in water balance. aim of this paper introduce dynamic Kc approach, based on Leaf Area Index (LAI) observations, balance...

background and objectives: otostegia persica (labiatae) is an endemic plant of iran and is used for its anti-inflammatory properties in folk medicine of sistan and baluchestan province. the aim of the present study was to investigate the anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of o. persica different fractions and identification of the natural compounds from the most active fraction. met...

Appendix A Deriving Equations for M+ME Biases and for t-statistic Overestimations Determining the Impact of VIF Bias on the t-statistic Consider first the situation where we have no measurement error. Using standard equations for the estimated standard error of β2 from any regression textbook, an unbiased and consistent estimate of the standard error is s = Σεi / (N – K) (A1-1) and the estimate...

Suppose that a dataset with N time series is available. N1 < N of those are the variables of interest. You want to estimate a vector autoregression (VAR) with the variables of interest. Which of the remaining N−N1 variables, if any, should you include in the VAR with the variables of interest? We develop a Bayesian methodology to answer this question. This question arises in most applications o...

Crown gall (Agrobacterium tumefaciens) and Phytophthora root and crown rot (PRCR), caused by P. cryptogea, are two major limiting factors affecting peach (Prunus persica) production in Chile. At present, N...

This study was designed to evaluate the effects of feral peach (Prunus persica Batsch var. davidiana Max.) sugar extracts (peach extracts) and Gomchwi (Ligularia fischeri) on physicochemical properties Woorimatdag 1 breast marinated with red pepper sauce during cold storage for 18 days. Experimental groups were divided into five groups; CON: basic sauce, GP15 GP30: a...
