the biological effects of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are determined by their mutual interactions. this interaction extremely affects various functions. lower consumption of omega-3 during gestation leads to various disorders, even in hearing. we aimed to assess the effect of low omega-3/omega-6 ratios on auditory nerve conduction. in this experimental study, the auditory brainstem response...

within the context of climate change, water scarcity is the major constraint to the viability of many crops. thus, it is necessary to develop strategies for sustainable water management, and introduce alternative crops to sustain the viability of agro-ecosystems. the main objective of this work was to assess the performance of hemp (cannabis sativa l.) subjected to different plant densities and...

Squids belong to the cephalopod family, which composes more than 5% of the total annual fishing volume of southern Iran as by- products; however, these do not have significant usage in Iran. This product was studied to extract the high-value products, i.e. marine oils rich in unsaturated multiple-band fatty acids from 50kg squid (Loligo loligo) obtained from Chabahar fishing port and transferre...

flaxseed oil is known as a functional oil because of the high content of α-linolenic acid; therefore, the aim of this research was to investigate some physicochemical properties of iranian extra virgin flaxseed oil (evfo) and the impact of the refining stages before deodorization on these properties. fatty acid composition, peroxide and anisidine values, free fatty acids, crystallization point,...

conclusions our results showed that vitamin e plus omega free fatty acids decrease the severity of mastodynia better than vitamin e alone. results vitamin e plus omega free fatty acids are more effective than the use of vitamin e alone in decreasing mastodynia. significant difference was seen between the cardiff breast score (cbs) of the vitamin e group compared to vitamin e - omega group (p < ...

the effects of dietary inclusion of medicinal plants’ by-product mixture on performance, the relative internal organ weight, ileal microbial counts, and small intestinal and liver morphologic alterations in laying hens receiving different omega-6 to omega-3 ratios as a 2×3 factorial arrangements with three levels of plants’ by-product (zero, 2.5 and five percent) and two omega-6 to omega-3 rati...
