Six isonitrongenous and isolipidic diets were formulated to feed 360 fish (mean initial body weight: 6.06 ± 0.02 g) with graded levels of sodium acetate (SA1 (0), SA2 (250 mg/kg), SA3 (500 SA4 (1000 SA5 (2000 SA6 (4000 mg/kg)) for 8 weeks. The results revealed that weight gain rate, specific growth inta...

Glucocerebrosidase and ceramidetrihexoside-alpha-galactosidase were obtained in a high degree of purity from human placental tissue. The enzymes were infused in Gaucher and Fabry patients, respectively. Following the administration of the proteins to supplement the genetically determined deficiencies, there resulted a specific reduction in the accumulated hlycolipids in the circulation and live...

Twenty one children with cystic fibrosis were advised to decrease their pancreatic enzyme supplement (PES) dose to less than 10,000 units lipase/kg/day. Mean PES dosage was significantly decreased in 15 patients from 18,380 to 8647 units lipase/kg/day. There were no significant changes in energy or fat intake, but there were significant increases in weight SD score, height SD score, and weight/...

Supplementation of organic trace mineral (OTM) may affect reproductive functions in several aspects and has been studied, but very rare is reported dairy cows. To determine the effects dietary OTM supplement during pre- postpartum with timed artificial insemination (TAI) protocol on steroid hormones, antioxidant enzymes, performances Prepartum Holstein cows (n = 60) were randomly assigned to re...

A cold-active endoglucanase-producing bacterium was isolated from the Beaufort Sea of Arctic Ocean and identified as Pseudoalteromonas sp. ArcC09. Cellulolytic activity ArcC09 reached a maximum 60 U/mg when cultivated in ZoBell medium for 72 h at 15 °C. This purified endoglucanase, with molecular mass 28 kDa, exhibited pH 7.0 55 The endoglucanase 10% 36% its maximal even low temperatures 5 °C °...

Enzymes are widely used in the food industry. Their use as a supplement to raw material for animal feed is current research topic. Although there several studies on application of enzyme additives industry, it necessary search new enzymes, well utilize bioinformatics tools design specific enzymes that work certain environmental conditions and substrates. This will allow improvement productive p...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate and compare the effects of inorganic organic selenium sources with carriers on growth performance, starter feed intake, blood parameters, concentration glutathione peroxidase in suckling Holstein calves. To this objective, 40 calves (38.47±2.52 kg average birth weight) at 7 days age were selected randomly divided into four experimental groups (10 replic...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of thyme essential oil and enzyme supplementation corn/wheat based diets on performance, carcass traits blood metabolites in broilers. carried out with 432 Ross–308 broilers as factorial arrangement 36 unites (12 birds per each replicate) a completely randomized design from 1 up 42 days. Result’s showed that basic ration type meal have stati...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary manipulations on the fatty acid composition, Se content, and vitamin E content of pork. Sixty Duroc-cross gilts were randomly allocated at weaning to 1 of 4 dietary treatment groups (n = 15 per group). The 4 experimental diets were based on animal plus plant components or plant components only, with or without the inclusion of a ...

Diospyrobezoars are a subtype of phytobezoars caused by excessive consumption of persimmons, which contain large amounts of tannins. In contrast to phytobezoars, diospyrobezoars have a harder consistency than other bezoars, making them more difficult to break up both chemically and endoscopically. We have previously reported successful dissolution of phytobezoars with diet soda and cellulase. A...
