in the present study, the effect of tail fat on recovery times in intact sheep and sheep with a ligated median sacral artery following similar anesthetic exposure with isoflurane was investigated. this study was performed using seven healthy fat-tailed iranian lori-bakhtiyari ewe lambs. the lambs were anesthetized twice at two week intervals (the experiment was performed in two stages). after m...

many experimental studies have been conducted on development of the scour hole as a result of vertical jet impaction. research has shown that aeration of the nappe flow in the model is much weaker than that in the prototype. therefore, the influence of aeration on scour holes needs further study. experimental investigation of the effects of air entrainment and tail water depth on the scour hole...

Fat tailed sheep breeds are known for their adaptation to nutritional stress, among other harsh production conditions. Damara sheep, native to Southern Africa, have recently been exported to other areas of the world, particularly Australia, aiming to produce lamb in semi-arid regions. Damaras have a unique hanging fat tail, a fat depot able to be mobilized under nutritional stress. In this arti...

results the simulation results showed that the penetration depth and temperature rise of 980 nm wavelengths were different from those of 1064 nm wavelength. it appeared that 1064 nm wavelength penetrated to deeper layers of tissue compared with 980 nm. moreover, temperature rise during 1064 nm irradiation led to temperature increase in allowable ranges. the findings proved the reason why 1064 n...

nowadays, the use of natural antioxidants as alternative antioxidants is more acceptable than synthetic antioxidants mainly for negative effects such as carcinogenicity and toxicity. this has led to an increasing interest in the search for natural antioxidants. the objectives of this study were to measure total crude phenolic compounds and in sorghum grain as natural antioxidant sources, to det...

the present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of vegetable fat sources and additives on performance and morphological parameters of the small intestine of arain broiler chickens. birds were randomly used in a 2×3 factorial arrangement of dietary treatments included two fat sources (canola or pumpkin seed) and three additives (without additive, 0.1 g/kg probiotic and 0.15 g/kg virgin...
