chamomile (matricaria chamomilla l.) is one of the most important medicinal plants in iran. the main objective of this study was to determine the effects of organic nutrients on the yield and oil content of chamomile. the experiment was conducted in the spring of 2010. the treatment groups consisted of vermicompost (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 tons/ha) and the aminol forte sprays (no spraying or contro...

Commercially available amino acids mixtures have several advantages such as enhancing assimilation of fertilizer, facilitating uptake of water and nutrients and improving photosynthesis of plants. To investigate the response of gerbera (Gerbera jamesonni L.) flowers ‘Saltino’ to foliar application of a mixture of 19 essential amino acids (0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 mg L-1) and ammonium nitrate (200 mg...

tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is one of the most important cut flowers in iran. this research was conducted to investigate the effects of spraying a mixture of amino acids on the physiological and morphological characteristics of tuberose. the experiment was carried out in two successive years (2009 and 2010) using two tuberose cultivars ‘dezfuli’ and ‘mahallati’. the experiment was arrange...

The proximate composition, amino acids and fatty acids composition in the muscle of wild, inshore and offshore cage-cultured large yellow croaker, Pseudosciaena crocea (Richardson, 1846), were determined to identify nutritional differences. Wild fish groups showed highest content of moisture and crude protein, but the lowest lipid content. Offshore cage-cultured fish showed significantly higher...

in an endeavor to find a novel series of antihyperglycemic agents, new benzimidazole and pyrimidine derivatives were successfully synthesized efficiently in high yield with high purity, starting from amino acids in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride (pocl3). the synthesized compounds were identified by 1h-nmr, 13c-nmr, ft-ir spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. all products were...

an experiment was conducted to determine apparent ileal digestibility of crude protein (cp) and amino acids (aa) and digestible cp and aa of fish meal (fm) in 21-d-old broiler chickens using the regression technique. four diets containing 0, 1, 2, and 3% fm in place of cornstarch were formulated with fm as the sole contributor of cp and aas in the sequential diets. eighty 14-d-old broiler chick...

During translation, ribosomes stall on mRNA when the aminoacyl-tRNA to be read is not readily available. The stalled ribosomes are deleterious to the cell and should be rescued to maintain its viability. To investigate the contribution of some of the cellular translation factors on ribosome rescuing, we provoked stalling at AGA codons in mutants that affected the factors and then analyzed the a...

in current study, protein hydrolysates were produced using microbial proteases of alcalase, protamex and flavourzyme from yellowfin tuna viscera. the results indicated that, protein hydrolysate from alcalase, had significantly higher protein content, nitrogen recovery and degree of hydrolysis than the others (p 0.05). the results of amino acids composition revealed that all hydrolysates were al...

Isoelectric solubilization /precipitation (ISP) process was used to isolate protein from muscles of Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782). Fish protein and lipid were recovered from whole gutted Prussian carp using acidic and basic isoelectric solubilization/precipitation followed by assaying amino acid and fatty acid profile. Essential amino acids content in acidic and basic pH treatm...
