Six hundred day old unsexed broiler chicks were used in a 35-day trial to compare the effects of soybean oil, palm oil and fish oil supplementation on the performance of broilers in terms of feed intake, weight gain and feed conversion. The chicks were randomly distributed following a completely randomized design in four groups having three replications per treatment. Each treatment had 150 bir...

introduction: the purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate three common gutta-percha solvents’ effectiveness in dissolving three different types of root canal sealers. materials and methods: the solubility of three different root canal sealers (ah plus, apexit plus and endoflas fs) was assessed in xylene, refined orange oil, tetrachloroethylene and distilled water (control). one-hundred t...

Background and Objectives: A method was developed and validated for determining 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in refined olive and refined pomace olive oils using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with a fluorescence detector. Materials and Methods: The sample preparation involved liquid–liquid extraction with organic solvent and low temperature clean-up. The low temp...

the aim followed in this study was to investigate the effects of soybean oil (high in c18:2 n-6, an omega-6 fatty acid) and fish oil (high in epa 20:5 n-3 and dha 22:6 n-3, omega-3 fatty acids) on meat quality and on the fatty acid profiles in goat kids. twenty-four male kids were allocated through stratified randomization and on the basis of body weight (19.43±1.2 kg) into three equal groups. ...

as lactating cows in severe negative energy balance have poor reproductive performance, the effect of dietary fat supplementation (fish oil, soybean oil) on pgfm secretion, ovarian function and blood metabolites is investigated. in this experiment, the effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids on plasma metabolites, ovarian function and prostaglandin secretion of 20 primiparous holstein co...

As lactating cows in severe negative energy balance have poor reproductive performance, the effect of dietary fat supplementation (fish oil, soybean oil) on PGFM secretion, ovarian function and blood metabolites is investigated. In this experiment, the effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids on plasma metabolites, ovarian function and prostaglandin secretion of 20 primiparous Holstein co...

Biodiesel is an alternative diesel fuel made from renewable biological resources. During the process of biodiesel production, lipase-catalyzed transesterification is a crucial step. However, current techniques using methanol as acyl acceptor have lower enzymatic activity; this limits the application of such techniques in large-scale biodiesel production. Furthermore, the lipid feedstock of curr...

The present study was aimed to assess the influence of brown marine algae and vitamin E (VE) (160 ppm α-tocopheryl acetate) on stability of chicken meat enriched with fish oil. In this study, 360 d-old broilers (Arbor Acres Plus) were randomly assigned to 6 treatment groups with 4 replicates of 15 birds in each. Experimental groups consisted of corn-soybean basal diet (C), corn-soybean basal di...
