two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of phytase supplementation on layer hens and broiler chickens performance and compare the use of phytase nutrient equivalency values in feed formulation with those fed conventional diet. in the first ex-periment, 640 commercial broiler chicks were used from 11 to 49 days of age. the ex-perimental units were allocated at random to 4 dietary ...

Situation Ketogenic dietary treatments are established, effective, non-pharmacologic for drug resistant childhood epilepsy. They generally consist of a high fat and low carbohydrate diet. Medications, particularly in liquid formulation, often contain potentially significant amounts carbohydrate, upon ingestion, can rapidly reverse ketosis leading to seizure activity. Methods Prior initiation or...

this study was designed to investigate the effects of different levels of tarragon powder on performance, carcass characteristics of broiler chickens. two hundred ross 308 male broiler chickens were randomly allocated into four treatments and five replicates per treatment. at each replicate ten birds were used. experimental diets were set on the basis of corn-soy-wheat and ross 308 broiler chic...

This study was conducted to evaluate the carcass yield, abdominal fat deposition and chemical compositions of thigh and breast muscles of male Arian broilers fed three different lysine levels of 1) high lysine (110% NRC), 2) standard level suggested by National Research Council (NRC) and 3) low lysine (90% NRC) based on two expression ways of amino acid contents of feedstuffs, as total amino ac...

J. Crocker and L. E. Park (2004) proposed both (a) that the importance of self-esteem lies more in how people strive for it rather than whether it is high or low and (b) that the benefits of pursuing self-esteem are of a limited, short-term nature and are outweighed by the significant costs that entail for functioning in multiple areas. The authors review research that raises questions about th...

background: every year many organizations formulate a code of ethics (coe) but when it comes to implementing, it does not achieve the desired purposes. ineffectiveness of coes can stem from different factors and surely, one of them is bad formulation. this research was conducted to identify the barriers to effective formulation of coes in one of the main state universities of medical sciences i...

Fat has an important role in creating texture, color and viscosity; but, it might be a source of many diseases in human. Mayonnaise is one of the most widely used sauces that contains fat in its formulation. There is an increase demand in reduction of the amount of fat in the diet or use of unsaturated fat. In the present study, mayonnaise samples containing various amounts of sesame oil were p...

in this study, 4 different food diets were examined for feeding white worm which were studied. results showed that suitable moisture for growth and development of white worm was 50 - 70 % that their biomass reached to a 675 g/m2 during 90 days. but it decreased significantly at moisture lower than 45 % and upper than 65 %. white worm had similar growth both in acidic and basic area. white worm ...
