a 2 × 3 factorial experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of enzyme endofeed w (eew) at 0 and 0.05%, thyme essential oil (teo), probiotic primalac® (pp) and non-feed additive, on intestinal histomorphology of broilers fed wheat-based diet. each of the 6 dietary treatments was replicated 4 times with 12 chicks each from 0 to 42 days of age. there was no interaction between enzyme and ...

the present study was conducted to investigate the effect of corn substitution with triticale in grower diets (zero, 50 and 100%) with/without exogenous enzyme supplementation on growth performance, digestive organs relative weight, jejunal morphology and blood lipids of quail chicks. two hundred and forty one-day-old unsexed japanese quail chicks were randomly assigned to a completely randomiz...

Nitric oxide (NO), an endogenous signaling molecule, is involved in various physiological processes and stress responses in plants. In the present research, Pyrodwarf pear (Pyrus communis) rootstocks were grown by nutrient solution to investigate the effects of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) application as an NO donor at 0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1 mM levels on plant stress tolerance, content of ma...

The value of dietary exogenous enzymes in promoting growth and efficiency of feed utilization is well recognized in poultry industry. In a case of high-cost yellow corn, several feed producers are choosing to replace yellow corn with other ingredients that have lower nutritional value like triticale, wheat, barley or sorghum. These crops are rich in non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs), and there ...

trichosanthes kirilowii, an important economic plant in china, is sensitive to chilling. to investigate the effect of abscisic acid (aba) treatment on the chilling tolerance of trichosanthes kirilowii maxim, different concentrations of aba were sprayed on trichosanthes kirilowii leaves and the resulting catalase (cat) and superoxide dismutase (sod) activities and the malondialdehyde (mda) conte...

Objective Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes infertility in male patients through erectile dysfunction, ejaculatory dysfunction, semen and hormone abnormalities. Oxidative stress (OS) is involved in poor semen quality and subsequent infertility in males with SCI. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of SCI on the level of testosterone hormone. MaterialsAndMethods In this experimental st...
