This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of replacing corn by 20% barley supplementedwith probiotic, prebiotic and antibiotic on performance, immune response, intestinal morphology, carcass development and nutrient digestibility of broilers. Four hundred Ross 308 one day-old broiler chicks were assigned randomly to 5 dietary treatments and were tested for 42 days in a com...

BACKGROUND This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding Korean rice wine residue (RWR) in total mixed ration (TMR) on in vitro ruminal fermentation and growth performance of growing Hanwoo steers. METHODS For in vitro fermentation, the experimental treatments were Control (Con: 0 % RWR + TMR), Treatment 1 (T1: 10 % RWR + TMR), and Treatment 2 (T2: 15 % RWR + TMR). The rumen flui...

A confirmatory and quantitative method of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the determination of mebendazole and its hydrolyzed and reduced metabolites in pork, chicken, and horse muscles was developed and validated in this study. Anthelmintic compounds were extracted with ethyl acetate after sample mixture was made alkaline followed by liquid chromatographic separat...

the aim of the present study was to determine the effects of adenotonsillectomy on height, weight and body mass index (bmi) in children under 12 years old, with or without airway obstruction and evaluation of the risk of overweight in them. in this case-control study, 120 children with the age of 2-12 years old were studied; 60 children as case group who underwent adenotonsillectomy and 60 heal...

Twenty four Ossimi male lambs with an average live body weight 3.75± 0.25 kg and 7 days age were randomly assigned to two feeding groups. The first one was left to suckle their dam's until 12 weeks of age (natural rearing) and served as a control group, while the other was early weaned at 8 weeks old. Both the two groups were supported by a starter ration besides dam's milk until being weaned. ...

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is an important cause of physical and psychosocial morbidity in adolescent girls and young adult women.

BACKGROUND We prospectively examined the association between physical activity, body weight and quality of life in Dutch postmenopausal early breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant endocrine therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this side study of a large clinical trial, lifestyle and quality-of-life questionnaires were filled out 1 and 2 years after the start of endocrine therapy (T1 and T2...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of fasting period with or without enzyme supplementation on body weight, body weight gain, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio; carcass traits and blood parameters of broilers. One hundred sixty eight, one day old, Cobb broiler chicks were randomly distributed into eight treatments. Each treatment included three replicates each with 7 birds. Bi...

Abstract The purpose of the study was to determine effect broiler diet colour on production performance and economic parameters. 360 unsexed one-day-old chicks (ROSS-308) were used, with an average starting weight 41.8 g. They randomly distributed over four transactions since first day incubation, as follows: T1 = control treatment (no addition), T2 blue treatment, T3 green T4 red six replicate...
