A single lipophosphoprotein complex, vitellogenin, was isolated and purified from the plasma of oestrogen-stimulated female toads by preparative ultracentrifugation and chromatography on TEAE-cellulose (triethylaminoethylcellulose). The protein contains 12% lipid, 1.5% phosphorus, 1.6% calcium and smaller amounts of carbohydrates and biliverdin. In amino acid composition it is identical with to...

objective: this study aimed to evaluate the correlation between plasma lipid levels at first trimester of pregnancy and results of oral glucose challenge test (ogct). materials and methods:  in a cross - sectional descriptive analytic study, two hundred eligible primigravida women without history of diabetes mellitus referring to vali-e-asr hospital were evaluated. plasma levels of triglyceride...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of egg yolk and cooling on ram coated spermatozoa. semen was collected from three ram by artificial vagina contacted with a tube containing tris- fructose-egg yolk 15%. samples were pooled, centrifuged by 700 g for 10 min and removed supernatant. then, samples were diluted by tris-glucose and centrifuged again to remove seminal plasma and egg yolk...

CONTEXT Dysregulated chylomicron metabolism may account for hypertriglyceridemia and increased risk of cardiovascular disease in obese subjects. Supplementation with ω-3 fatty acid ethyl ester (FAEE) decreases plasma triglyceride. However, its effect on postprandial chylomicron metabolism in obese subjects on a weight-loss diet has not yet been investigated. OBJECTIVE We aimed to examine the ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect different age and plumage color on egg quality traits cholesterol levels, in addition which can be used for weight prediction Japanese quails. eggs obtained from 23-week-old original colored Jumbo quails, 39-week-old quails; 40, 20 were respectively as research material. In terms difference, when quails compared yolk weight, height, diameter h...

This study aims to determine the effect of using Hermetia illucens maggot in feed on internal and external quality broiler eggs.The used 80 laying hens aged 6 months which were divided into 4 treatments, 5 replications each replication consisted tails. The variables observed eggs (egg weight, egg shape index, shell thickness, weight) white yolk Haugh units, color). data obtained analyzed with a...

This experiment studied the effect of four calcium (3.0, 3.5, 4.0, and 4.5%) and four available phosphorus levels (0.25, 0.30, 0.35, and 0.40%) in the diet of semi-heavy commercial layers after molting. Hisex Brown layers between 90 and 108 weeks of age were distributed in a completely randomized experimental design with a 4x4 factorial arrangement with 16 treatments of five replicates of eight...

The objective of this study was to compare fattening performance, carcass traits, and egg quality of Japanese quails with different feather colors (white, dark brown, golden, and wild-type). In the study, 360 one-day-old quail chicks with 4 different feather colors were used as animal material. Quails were fed ad libitum for 42 days to determine fattening performance and carcass traits. To dete...

AIM The aim was to study the effect of supplementation of lysine producing microbes (LPM) as an in vivo source of lysine on performance and egg quality characters of post-peak layers. MATERIALS AND METHODS BIS (1992) specified diets (except crude protein [CP] and lysine) were prepared using either soybean meal (SBM) or groundnut extractions (GNE) or sunflower extractions (SFE) with 16 and 15%...
