high mortality and labor costs are associated with first-feeding sturgeon culture, particularly during the period of dietary transition from live to formulated feed. therefore we investigated the effects of various feeding treatments on the survival and growth of the persian sturgeon ( acipenser persicus ) larvae during a 20-day culture period. three replicate groups (250 fish/replicate) of fir...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of live yeast culture and the live yeast culture enriched with vitamin-mineral supplementation as a feed additive on fattening performance, some blood and rumen fluid parameters in male kids. Totally 18 male Saanen goat kids (average 8 weeks old) were divided into one control and two treatment groups each containing 6 kids. Rations were prepa...

twenty four primiparous and multiparous holstein cows on early lactation, beginning five weeks postpartum, were used for four weeks to investigate the effects of supplemention of rumen-protected choline (rpc) or vitamin e on milk yield, milk composition, dry matter intake, body condition score and body weight. the cows were randomly assigned to one of the following treatments: i)no supplement (...

Yeast is a unicellular fungi that does not reproduce via asexual spore production (Phaff, 1966). The most commonly fed yeast in dairy diets is Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC); a facultative anaerobic yeast often referred to as brewers or bakers yeast. The most common yeast products fed to ruminants are live cells or yeast culture mixtures. A yeast culture is a yeast-fermented product that contain...

A study on the effect of probiotic supplementation on broiler peiftmnance was carried out with 600 one day-old Avian broiler chicks. The duration of study was 35 da)lS and a commercially prepared lactobacillus culture was given to the treated birds via drinking water thmughout the 35 days. The results showed that the live weight of the I,·ealed bird was significantly (P<0.05) improved al 21, 28...

Artemia is an excellent live feed for newly hatched fish and crustaceans gained a unique position in the aquaculture system. Brine shrimp non-selective filter feeder, so different locally available source feeds should be evaluated as potential food their control mass culturing. The experiment was carried out to study effect of supplement on growth performance at Central Fisheries Promotion Cons...
