The nutritive values of non-processed and processed pistachio peel with Neurospora sitophila were evaluated. The chemical composition of samples was evaluated by laboratory analysis. An in vitro digestibility study was done to determine digestibility coefficients of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM). Digestible organic matter in the dry matter (DOMD) to estimate the metabolizable energy (ME)...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most important health problems with increasing prevalence worldwide. Oxidative stress that is a result of imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and antioxidant defense mechanisms has been demonstrated as a main pathology in DM. Hyperglycemia-induced ROS productions can induce oxidative stress through four major molecular mechanisms inclu...

Sixteen multiparous lactating buffaloes after 8 weeks of calving and weighing 500 to 600 kg were used in a complete switch-back design with four groups. Buffaloes in the first group were fed the control ration (R1) consisted of DM basis of 60% concentrate feed mixture (CFM)+20% rice straw (RS)+20% berseem hay (BH), while in the other groups the rations consisted of DM basis of 40% CFM+20% RS+40...

We study dark matter (DM) which is cosmologically long-lived because of standard model (SM) symmetries. In these models an approximate stabilizing symmetry emerges accidentally, in analogy with baryon and lepton number in the renormalizable SM. Adopting an effective theory approach, we classify DM models according to representations of SU(3)C ×SU(2)L×U(1)Y ×U(1)B×U(1)L, allowing for all operato...

the objective of this study was to determine the effects of hulled and hull-less barley grains’ chemical treatment on disappearance of dry matter (dm), starch and cncps carbohydrate fractions. for barley grain treatment, naoh, formaldehyde and urea were used at 35, 4 and 35 gr/kg dm respectively. three mature rams (one year old) of zel breed were rumen cannulated to calculate ruminal disappeara...

Three cannulated Tswana steers were used to investigate the rumen degradability of mopane worm (Imbrasia belina) by measuring the amount of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) disappearing at incubation periods up to 72 h. The effective degradability (ED) of DM and CP in the rumen was calculated at outflow rates of 0.03 / h (ED0.03) and 0.05 / h(ED0.05). Rumen degradable CP (RDP) was estimat...

Background Any factor like diabetes that changes the oxidant/antioxidant balance in favor of oxidants could possibly disrupt the physiologic function of ovaries. So, we have investigated the effect of vitamin E and Se supplements on antioxidant defense in ovaries of diabetic rats with focus on Xanthine dehydrogenase/oxidase (XDH/XO) and Aldehyde oxidase (AO) activities.
