This experiment was conducted to compare the effect of probiotic thepax® in diets with different quantities of protein on the performance of Cobb-500 broiler chickens and their serum antibody level against Newcastle disease vaccine (NDV). Two basal diets were formulated based on NRC (1994) recommendations which had NRC (sufficient protein diet) and 90% NRC (low protein diet) for protein. The ba...

In this study, two main probiotics (Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus) were isolated from the intestine of Tor grypus and their effects on growth performance, gut microbial flora and digestive enzymes activities (i.e., α-amylase, lipase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and alkaline phosphatase) of Tor grypus (Karaman, 1971) were determined. Juveniles of T. grypus (n...

The purpose of this study was to compare effects of the different types of feed additives consumption including probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics in Japanese quails. A total of 384 Japanese quail chicks were randomly assigned to 8 treatments with 4 replicates and 12 birds per replicate (cage). The experimental diets (treatments) were included: Basal diet without additive (control) and prote...

The present study was performed to investigate the effects of dietary electrolyte balance and probiotic on the performance and carcass characteristics in Japanese quail under heat stress conditions. A total of 672 quail chicks (20-day old) were studied in a three-factor, factorial experiment with 4 replicates and in each replication of 14 birds during 20 to 37 and 20 to 41 days Factors included...

the importance of writing as a complex skill in applied linguistics has drawn the attention of many researchers to evaluate textbooks in order to help learners gain self-sufficiency and autonomy in the field of language use and communication. investigations have shown that developments in textbooks evaluation can promote the quality of pedagogies and consequently the learning. this study attemp...
