Global food production faces many challenges, including climate change, a water crisis, land degradation, and desertification. These challenges require research into non-traditional sources of human foods. Edible mushrooms are considered an important next-generation healthy source. rich in proteins, dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, other bioactive components (alkaloids, lactones, polysaccharides, polyphenolic compounds, sesquiterpenes, sterols, terpenoids). Several ingredients can be...

The field of biotechnology presents us with a great chance to use many organisms, such as mushrooms, find suitable solutions for issues that include the accumulation agro-wastes in environment. green mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus L.) includes myco-remediation polluted soil and water well bio-fermentation. circular economy approach could be effectively achieved by using oyster L.), which substrate their cultivation is considered vital source producing biofertilizers, animal feeds, bioenergy,...

The global food production for the worldwide population mainly depends on huge contributions of agricultural sector. cultivated crops foods need various elements or nutrients to complete their growth, and these are indirectly consumed by humans. During this production, several environmental constraints stresses may cause losses in production. These obstacles include abiotic biotic stresses, which have already been studied both individual combined cases. However, there very few studies...

1. We examined the effects of supplemental dietary vitamin E (Vit E) on semen quality and antioxidative status in male domestic fowls exposed to oxidative stress induced by synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone (DEX) injection. 2. Thirty-six Egyptian local cross males, 42 weeks old, were housed individually cages an open-sided building under 16 h light:8 dark provided with commercial feed water ad libitum. Birds divided into 4 groups: DEX (4 mg/bird/d), Vit (200 mg/kg diet), + mg/bird/d...

Soil is the main source of human food, feeds for our animal, fiber, and a major fuel. The ability soil to supply life essentials can be impacted by several obstacles that reduce or prevent plant production. Salt-affected soils are common under arid semi-arid climates, which often produce have salinity and/or alkalinity problems. Salinity important stresses mainly include oxidative osmotic stress, threaten crop productivity such conditions with distinguished decline. Successful production in...

Abstract Imidacloprid is an insecticide that protects against insects in the agriculture, animal, and poultry production sectors. Since accumulation of imidacloprid induces adverse impacts on general health status quality food chain, this study tested broilers. Besides, selenium nanoparticles were fed to birds relieve negative growth performance status. Birds (1-day age, initial weight 46.05 ± 1.0 g) divided into four groups (triplicates) where 15 chicks each replicate (45 for group). The...

Chicks (Cobb strain) divided into 3 x blocks given diets containing CTC at concentrations 0, 10 20 mg/kg. 3. body weight gain was lower when birds with CTC. However, high dose PP tended to reduce effect 4. abdominal fat content, plasma triglyceride concentration liver increased by reduced PP. 5. Muscle thiobarbituric acid reactive substance...

The present study was conducted to show that dietary supplementation with a fungus, Aspergillus awamori , modifies muscle fatty acid profiles in broiler chickens. A total of thirty chicks, selected from group 100 chicks aged 15 d, were divided into control and two treatment groups (ten birds per treatment). fed basal diet, the diets supplemented A. at levels 0·05 0·2 %. From start raised for an additional 12 growth profile evaluated. Although feed intake decreased by body-weight gain breast...

A total 105 white Bovens at 24 weeks age were housed in cages an open-sided building under a 16 h light : 8 dark lighting schedule. Birds randomly divided into five treatments fed, ad libitum, containing 0% (control), 1.25%, 2.5%, 3.5% or 5.0% oil from 36...

This study was conducted to show that dietary supplementation of fungi, Aspergillus awamori and niger so called Koji in Japan, improves growth performance meat quality broiler chickens. Total number 42 chicks at 15 d age with average weight (365±3) were divided into 7 treatments (n=6). First treatment as control fed diet other diets supplemented either A. or the levels 0.01, 0.05 0.1%. The birds raised for 12 from evaluate effect on growth, organs weights, abdominal fat content, muscle fatty...

The objective of the present study was to research effects different supplemented dietary sources n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) produce enriched meat on growth performance, quality, serum antioxidative status, immune response and tibia bone characteristics in Japanese quail. Three hundred 1-day-old quail chicks were randomly weighed divided into five treatments containing 0% oil (C, negative control), 2% vegetable (VO, positive linseed (LO), fish (FO) a mixture 1% +1% (LO+FO)....

Abstract In this study, we investigated the effect of Moringa oleifera leaves (MOL) supplements on performance, ileal microbiota carcass traits and biochemical antioxidant parameters broiler chickens. MOL was added to starter, grower finisher diets at four levels (0%, 0.5%, 1.0% 5.0%). A total 320 one‐day‐old mixed‐sex Cobb‐500 chicks were divided equally into treatment groups, with 5 replicates 16 each until 42 days age. Compared control group, fed 0.5% 1% exhibited a higher final body...

The dietary chicken egg lysozyme (LZM) at different concentrations was tested on the growth performance, blood health, and resistance against Escherichia coli of growing rabbits. A total number 48 rabbits averaged 611.25 g (5 weeks age) APRI line-rabbits (Egyptian developed line) were allocated into four treatments (three replicates each contained rabbits) 5-week weaning first group fed a basal diet without LZM supplementation served as control group, whereas remaining groups supplemented...

The practical usage of untraditional feedstuffs such as sunflower meal (SFM) in laying hens nutrition developing countries has received considerable attention. SFM is a by-product the oil industry and been progressively added to bird’s diets. Sunflower gaining great interest feed ingredient due its eminent crude protein content, low anti-nutritional compounds, price. current experiment was aimed assess production efficiency, egg quality, yolk fatty acids composition, nutrient digestibility...

This study aimed to detect the phenotypic differences between brown (BB) and white (WW) feathered quails their reciprocal crosses (BW WB) over two successive generations. The WW cross quails, especially BW, had heaviest body weights, throughout studied period, with significant variations generations (P<0.05). Moreover, BW possessed largest egg production during F1, while in F2, BB superiority among a prominent of F2 F1 However, higher weights than compared others Also, lowest lipid contents...
