the presented study aimed at investigating the effect of foliar application of amino acids and nano particles and chelated iron on photosynthetic pigments and yield of potato. to this end a factorial experiment was carried out in the form of randomized complete block design with three replications in 2013, in the research field of natural resources institute in damavand, iran. the first factor ...

a thin-layer chromatography method has been developed and evaluated for the separation and determination of lysine and methonine in a mixture of amino acids obtained from acid or enzyme hydrolysis of protein. the solvent systems were (a) ethanol-ether, (b) phenol-water, (c) ethyl methyl ketone-pyridine-distilled water-glacial acetic acid. procedures in all the three stages were in the same dime...

background: hepatitis b virus (hbv) gene and protein variations are frequently been seen in chronic patients. the aims of study were to determine the genotypes as well as the patterns of variations distribution in chronically-infected patients from the central part of iran. methods: the surface gene was amplified, sequenced and subsequently aligned using international and national iranian datab...

the aim of this study was to investigate the processing methods of sorghum grain and diet formulation on performance and nutrients digestibility in broilers. three hundred and twenty chicks at eight day of age were allotted into eight groups of four replicate with ten chicks per replicate. this research was conducted as completely randomized design arranged in a 2 × 2 × 2 factorial experiment u...

in a pot experiment the effect of water stress on the proteins and proline amino acid content of jam, kurosh, pirooz chickpea cultivars (cicer arientinum) were evaluated using a complete block design with factorial treatments inducing cultivars and watering periods, three, six and nine day intervals in three replications. soluble protein and free proline content of the leaf and the root were me...

Abstract The present study aims at the identification and investigation of fatty acid and amino acid profiles in male and female Liza aurata in the southern part of the Caspian Sea, in reproductive (autumn) and non-reproductive (spring) seasons. The results showed difference between the total fatty acids levels in the sexes. Analyses of fatty acids indicated a higher percentage of C16:0, C...

Amino acid dehydrogenases (L-amino acid: oxidoreductase deaminating EC 1.4.1.X) are members of the wider superfamily of oxidoreductases that catalyze the reversible oxidative deamination of an amino acid to its keto acid and ammonia with the concomitant reduction of either NAD+, NADP+ or FAD. These enzymes have been received much attention as biocatalysts for use in biosensors or diagnostic kit...

Protein and energy are the two major components of feed that influence performance of the growing and fattening lambs. Provision of the quality of protein in the lamb’s diet does not only improve the animal performance but also ensures profitable animal production. Different vegetable protein sources are used to formulate the rations for growing and fattening lambs. These protein sources differ...

The proximate composition, amino acid and fatty acid composition in the muscle of wild, inshore and offshore cage-cultured large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) were determined to identify nutritional differences. Wild fish groups showed highest content of moisture and crude protein, but lowest lipid content. Offshore cage-cultured fish showed significantly higher content of moisture and ...
