This experiment had been done to evaluate the effects of different levels of essential oils (EOs) of wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) and cumin (Cuminum cyminum)on growth performance, carcass characteristics and immune system in broiler chicks. Three hundred ninety two Ross 308 male broiler chicks in a completely randomized design were divided into 7 experimental treatments. The experimental tre...

Ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) using response surface methodology (RSM) was employed for the highly efficient of bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and antioxidants from cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) seeds. A central composite design (CCD) consisting three variables five levels used to estimate significance each process variable in application UAE seed extraction. Process optimized were...

Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) is one of the most consumed spices worldwide. In this study, seeds obtained from India, Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Türkiye (Denizli) were used as materials. Different parameters including essential oil content (%), composition fixed fatty acid colour values (l, a, b), total phenolic substance (mg GAE/g dry herb) flavonoid CE/g determined. Result showed tha...

Background: Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L. [family Apiaceae]) seed essential oil is reported to have antiseptic activity. Until now the antiviral properties of cumin seed extracts on viruses such as herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) have not been studied. The objective of this study was to investigate the in vitro effects of aqueous, methanolic and hydroalcoholic extracts of cumin seed on HSV-1 growth ...

cadmium (cd), being a highly toxic metal pollutant of soils, it inhibits root and shoot growth and yield production, affects nutrient uptake and homeostasis. it is frequently accumulated by agriculturally important crops and then enters the food chain with a significant potential to impair animals and human’s health. therefore, a study was conducted to evaluate the effects of various cd levels ...
