the aim of the present study was to investigate the possibility of improving egg lipids and fatty acids composition of laying hens through inclusion of olive cake plus barley malt rootlets in the diets. seventy, 54-week-old, lohman laying hens were fed for a 12 weeks laying period on 3 iso-caloric and iso-nitrogenous diets contained 0 (control), 28.5 g olive cake (oc) + 25.5 g barley malt rootl...

This study aimed to decrease the cholesterol content of egg yolk of laying hens through inclusion of barley malt rootlets in the diets. Forty-two, 54-week-old, Lohman laying hens were fed for a 12 weeks laying period on 3 iso-caloric and iso-nitrogenous diets contained 0 (control), 25.5 or 51.1g barley malt rootlets/kg. Inclusion of barley malt rootlets at 25.5 or 51.1g/kg diet significantly de...

in order to investigate the effect of diets contained urea and molasses on fattening performance and blood urea nitrogen (bun) density of male lambs, 72 arabic male lambs were used in a completely randomized design with a 3×4 factorial experiment, for 90 days. the experimental diets contained; 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5% of urea each with 0, 7.5 and 15% of molasses, in isoprotein and isocalaric diets. t...

the current experiment was carried out to investigate the possible effects of replacing alfalfa by dried de-oiled savory (satureja khuzistanica; dds) at the levels of 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 percent in finishing diets of mehraban lambs on kinetics of gas production in vitro. the experimental diets contained 20% alfalfa and 80% of concentrate on dry matter basis. replacing alfalfa by dds had no si...

variation in growth, feed utilization and survival was assessed in sturgeon fingerlings of beluga fed different dietary lipid levels. all diets were iso-nitrogenous (protein = 45%) comprising 3.4-3.7 kcal digestible energy g-1. triplicate groups of 35 fingerling beluga with a mean initial wet weight of 2.14 ± 0.07 g (± sd) were fed with four experimental diets containing 6.7, 10.5, 14 and 17% c...

this study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of hydrolysable tannin (ht) and condensed tannin (ct) on growth performance and body composition of nile tilapia. hydrolysable tannin and ct were included into diets at four levels (0, 5, 15, and 25 g kg-1 diet). the diet with zero tannin level acted as control and the response of fish fed diets containing tannin was compared to that of the contr...
