the present study was carried out to determine the effects of fish oil long-chain fatty acids and thyme essence supplementation on performance and carcass traits in mahabadi goat kids. twenty-eight mahabadi goat kids (average initial bw of 17/8 ± 2/8 kg, 4-5mo) were randomly assigned to four treatments of: 1. control (basal diet), 2. 0.2% thyme essence, 3. 2% fish oil, and 4. 2% fish oil +0.2% ...

an experiment was conducted with 855 fertilized eggs in 8 treatments (injection in 5th day of incubation) and 11 treatments (injection in 17th day of incubation) with 3 replicates of 15 eggs each. treatments included first control (no injection), second control (injection of 0.5 ml. of sodium chloride); in 5th day, experimental treatments included 30 and 45 mg. silver nanoparticles, and 100 mg....

BACKGROUND Athletes have a large extent of oxidant agent production. In the current study, we aimed to determine the influence of thyme extract on the endurance exercise performance, mitochondrial biogenesis, and antioxidant status in rats. METHODS Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups receiving either normal drinking water (non-supplemented group, n = 10) or thyme ext...

An effective method was elaborated for extracting the active substances from commercially available Garden thyme and carob seeds. The antibacterial activity of dilutions of thyme and carob extracts and their combinations were studied by taking the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) with agar well diffusion technique. The most effective concentrations of the two herb extracts were used for ...

BACKGROUND A comparative analysis by using static headspace (HS) and steam distillation (SD) GC-MS of the volatile and the semi-volatile secondary metabolites from leaves of cultivated Majorana syriaca. METHODS The essential oils endogenous to cultivated thyme were isolated and identified by HS-GC-MS technology and compared to those from SD-GC-MS. RESULTS The HS-GC-MS results showed that th...

This article discusses the requirements of a formal specification for the annotation of temporal information in clinical narratives. We discuss the implementation and extension of ISO-TimeML for annotating a corpus of clinical notes, known as the THYME corpus. To reflect the information task and the heavily inference-based reasoning demands in the domain, a new annotation guideline has been dev...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of foliar salicylic acid (sa) and citric acid (ca) applications on growth, biochemical characteristics and essential oil content of thyme (thymus vulgaris l.) grown under field conditions. salicylic acid (0.5 and 1 mm) and citric acid (5 and 10 mm) were applied three times during the vegetation at 15 day intervals. results revealed that foliar ap...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of thyme essential oil and powder in comparison to antibiotic on performance of meat type quails, in a completely randomized design with 6 treatments, 4 replicate. the dietary treatments consisted of the basal diet without any added compounds (control), 100mg virginiamycin/kg, 0.1 or 0.2% thyme powder and 100 or 200 mg thyme essential oil/...
