the effect of dose and regimen of organic acids on micro-flora and morphology of small intestine were studied in a total of 300 male day old broiler chicks using completely randomized design. salkil had no significant effects on the number of villi per view field and percent of convoluted villi. salkil had a significant effect on the number of tongue, ridge shaped (p

The Activities of the wide range of organisms in soil play an important role in natural ecosystems. Their processes contribute to the soil’s health, ability to retain nutrients and make them available for plant. Soil biological, physical and chemical processes are interrelated and all contribute to plant health & productivity. The chemical and physical environment in soil will influence the bio...

BACKGROUND Bacterial vaginosis (BV) - a syndrome characterised by a shift in vaginal flora - appears to be particularly common in sub-Saharan Africa, but little is known of the pattern of vaginal flora associated with BV in Africa. We conducted a study aimed at determining the prevalence of BV and patterns of BV-associated vaginal micro-flora among women with vaginal discharge syndrome (VDS) in...

In arid/semi-arid ecosystems, biological resources, such as water, soil nutrients, and plant biomass, typically go through periods of high and low abundance. Short periods of high resource abundance are usually triggered by rainfall events, which, despite of the overall scarcity of rain, can saturate the resource demand of some biological processes for a time. This review develops the idea that...

In order to evaluate the influence of ionic liquid 1butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl) on the soil micro-ecological system, the toxicity of [Bmim]Cl to soil microorganisms and its impact on soil physico-chemical properties were investigated. Three soil samples, which were taken from the rape land, nursery land and the broad bean land respectively, were used for this study. The toxici...

this study was carried out to determine the effects of immunogen as a prebiotic on growth-related parameters and gut micro-flora in r. kutum fry. a basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients supplemented with immunogen at 0, 1, 1.5, and 2 g kg-1 leading to four experimental diets.  fish were randomly distributed in 500 l fiberglass tanks (1×1×0.5 m). the experiment lasted for eight ...

Environmental inquiries constitute an important activity in the cultural ecological analysis of the interrelationship of productive technology and the local environment at HesbAn ( LaBianca 1976 ) . Cumulative and systematic study of the flora at Hesbbn can ultimately reveal information about ( 1) the prevailing soil and climatic conditions; ( 2 ) the nature of the local botanical association a...

Pesticides are used in modern agriculture to prevent crop losses by different pests and allow sustentation of the current yields. The pesticides after their use enter environment viz., soil, water air, then undergo various interactions complex transformations resulting formation multiple metabolites. fate depends on properties pesticide, soil some other miscellaneous factors. metabolites may mo...
