this study was carried out to determine the effect of different levels of clove essential oil, as a natural growth promoter and probiotic on performance,carcass traits and serum components of broiler chickens. a total of 240 straight run day-old commercial broiler chicks (cobb 500) were distributed randomly into five groups. each group was subdivided into four replicates with 12 chicks each. th...

PURPOSE This present study investigated the absorption kinetics of echinacoside (ECH) in situ and in vitro and its oral bioavailability in rats. Additional aim was to find an agent(s) to promote ECH absorption and oral bioavailability among two efflux proteins and three absorption promoters. METHODS ECH absorption behaviors were investigated by everted gut sac model in vitro and single-pass i...

to introduce ecologically safe acaricide, effects of essential oils derived from cuminum cyminum (cumin), syzygium aromaticum (clove), and mentha spicata (spearmint) were determined on tetranychus urticae at 25±1◦c, 65±5% rh and a photoperiod of 16:8 (l:d) hour. the essential oils extracted by hydro-distillation were characterized by means of gc and gc–ms. bioassays were performed by filter pap...

The inhibitory effects of essential oils including clove, lavender and geranium extracted from Eugenia caryophyllata, Lavandula officinalis and Pelargonium graveolens on multidrug resistant isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were investigated. The main constituents of clove, lavander and geranium oil were eugenol (80-90%), 1,8-cineol (13%) and citronellol (45%) respectively. Clove had the most ...
