This study was conducted to determine the chemical composition and metabolizable energy of poultry by-product meal (PBPM) from two slaughterhouses in Iran. Samples were analyzed for dry matter, crude protein, ash, ether extract and gross energy. The amounts of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, Magnesium, Iron, Manganese, copper and Zinc were determined. The apparent metabolizable energy (...

in this paper, we give a characterization of strongly jordan zero-product preserving maps on normed algebras as a generalization of  jordan zero-product preserving maps. in this direction, we give some illustrative examples to show that the notions of strongly zero-product preserving maps and strongly jordan zero-product preserving maps are completely different. also, we prove that the direct p...

While collaborating with instrumentalists on concerts of music with an interactive real-time computer component, not as a composer but as a technological co-performer, it has been regularly necessary for me to update the technology used. This need stems partially from the rapid obsolescence of both hardware and software technology: compositions that were created only a decade ago often need to ...

Many composers today are using control voltage to MIDI converters and laptop computers running algorithmic composition software to create interactive instruments and responsive environments. Using an integrated device that combines the two devices at the performance would reduce latency, improve system stability, and reduce setup complexity. Composers and performers, however, have chosen not to...

Background. Limiting egg consumption to avoid high cholesterolemia is recommended to reduce risk of cardiovascular disease. However, recent evidences suggest that cholesterol from diet has limited influence on serum cholesterol. Objective. To assess the effect of egg consumption on lipid profiles in hyperlipidemic adults treated with lipid-lowering drugs. Material and Method. Sixty hyperlipidem...
