Advantages of pelleted feeds in terms of storage, transportation and lower costs compared to natural fresh feed justified the replacement of artificial feeds instead of natural ones partially on maturation performances. This study comprised nine treatments (with three replications) including control treatment: polychaete worm (Perinereis nuntia), Squid and calf liver (natural feed); T1: pellet ...

in order to determination of ileum apparent and true digestibility of two samples of poultry by product meal, an experiment was conducted with a total of 60 day-old broiler chicks, ross 308 strain. poultry by-product meal was prepared from two slaughter house in alborz province. samples were sent to laboratory for determination of chemical analysis. the birds received commercial broiler starter...

The proteins of mature potato tubers can be used for variety identification. Their pattern after electrophoresis or focusing are genetically determined. Various growth regulators applied during the season had no influence. Molecular weights of the protein subunits are uniform and decrease with age of the tuber, often due to depolymerization. Some subunits are linked by S —S-bridges. A proteid c...

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR, EC1.1.1.34), the key enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis, was purified from microsomes of potato tuber tissue, and a polyclonal antibody and two monoclonal antibodies against the purified enzyme were prepared. HMGR protein content was measured by immunotitration and radioimmunoassay using these antibodies. HMGR activity was very low in the fr...

This study aimed to improve the quality of cryopreserved goat semen for artificial insemination by the addition of cattle seminal plasma crude protein. Semen collected from cattle and centrifuged to obtain seminal plasma. Then it was purified to obtain the crude protein. The diluent used in this study was milk-yolk. There were three groups, control group without crude protein (P0), the addition...

in order to study of yield and qualitative characteristics of potato (aola variety), an experiment was conducted in mashhad conditions under irrigation regims and different levels of potassium fertilizer. this experiment was based on randomized copmpletely block with split plot design with three replications in khorasan razavi agricultural and natural resource research center in 2010. three lev...

some factors affecting crude protein balance (cpb), as a measure of efficiency, were studied using 2824 records of 501 lactating holstein cows. the cpb (kg d-1) was calculated as crude protein (cp) intake (kg) minus cp yield (kg). two different statistical methods including principal components (pcs) and general linear model analyses were used to study the effects of different factors. crude pr...

changes in dietary electrolyte balance influence the metabolic fate of protein and many amino acids. furthermore, acid-base condition is achieved in part by the alteration of dietary amino acids pattern and quantity. therefore, a trial was conducted in a completely randomized design to evaluate performance, carcass characteristics, plasma electrolyte and uric acid concentrations of 19 and 28-da...
