A total of 1,800 incubating eggs produced by a commercial flock of Cobb broiler breeders was used to determine the effects of storage duration (3 or 18 d) on spread of hatch and chick quality. Chick relative growth (RG) at the end of 7 d of rearing was also determined as a measure of the chick performance. Chick quality was defined to encompass several qualitative characteristics and scored acc...

BACKGROUND The storage duration of red blood cells transfused to critically ill patients is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Whether the association exists between storage duration of red blood cells transfused to patients with sepsis and the risk of developing ALI/ARDS is unknown. We aimed to determine the association of the storage duration of red blood cells transfused to p...

Objective: Chamomile is one of the commercial medicinal plants produced in Ethiopia. Besides, it is priority crop in national aromatic and medicinal plants research project in the country. As chamomile production affected by production techniques this activity was conducted to identify the effect of seed storage duration and seedling raising methods on its seedling establishmen...

Methane emissions from livestock manure are primary contributors to GHG agriculture and options for their mitigation must be found. This paper presents the results of a study on methane stored liquid dairy cow during summer winter storage periods. Manure season was under controlled conditions in barrels at ambient temperature simulate conditions. samples were measured two time periods: 0 69 139...

A pathological study of 21 patients with Parkinson's disease of asymmetrical onset revealed significant asymmetry of degeneration of the substantia nigra with greater neuronal loss contralateral to the initially affected body side. It has previously been suggested that decline in duration of effectiveness of levodopa doses in Parkinsonian patients with motor oscillations is caused by loss of ni...

BACKGROUND The use of quarantined cryopreserved semen is mandatory in donor insemination programs. Whether sperm cells can survive and retain their ability to fertilize after long-term storage remains a controversial issue. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the duration of cryostorage in liquid nitrogen on the sperm cells' progressive motility concentration (PMC) in a l...

background: there are many studies focused on long or short storage time of epididymal sperm (eps) of different species. there are limited studies on preservation or cryopreservation of the domestic goat eps. objective: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of ex vivo cold-storage on freezing of eps from goat (capra hircus). materials and methods: in a split-plot design the c...
