To evaluate the protective and ameliorative effect of aqueous sea buckthorn leaf extract (SLE) on hemato-biochemical profile in lead intoxicated Wistar rats.An experiment was conducted for 60 days. 36 adult male rats with a mean body weight 177.8±12.6 g were divided into five groups subjected to various daily oral treatment regimens. Group I served as negative control receiving only feed water, II (positive lead) received acetate at 250 ppm drinking III SLE) SLE 100 mg/kg b.wt. Animals IV...
The present study investigated the hepatoprotective effects of seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) leaf-extract (SLE) supplementation in lead acetate-intoxicated Wistar rats. Adult male rats (n = 35) were divided into five equal groups as per completely randomized design. Group I was kept a control, group II received 250 ppm acetate drinking water, and III SLE at 100 mg/kg body weight os. Animals IV V water for first 45 days. Additionally, os throughout experiment, whereas during last 15...
Aim: Fruit processing and consumption yield a significant amount of by-products as waste, which can be used potential nutrient suppliers for livestock."Kinnow" (Citrus nobilis Lour x Citrus deliciosa Tenora) is one the most important citrus fruit crops North Indian States.Its residues are rich in carbohydrates but poor protein account approximately 55-60% raw weight fruit.Present study assessed chemical composition anti-oxidative activity Kinnow mandarin waste (KMW) scrutinized impact...
Aim: Study was conducted to ascertain the quality of Kinnow mandarin waste (KMW) silage and its utilization by adult male goats.Materials Methods: KMW collected, dried 30% dry matter level ensiled in silo pit after addition disodium hydrogen orthophosphate as source phosphorus is deficient phosphorus.Oat collected at milking stage, chopped finely a for 2 months.Twelve nondescript local goats about 8-10 months age mean body weight 23.00±0.90kg were selected.The randomly allotted on per...
This study was carried out to investigate the effect of incorporation different level walnut cake in concentrate mixture on vitro dry matter degradation order determine its supplementation ruminant ration.Walnut used @ 0, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30% formulate an iso-nitrogenous mixtures designated as T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 T6 respectively. The formulae were for gas production studies using goat rumen liquor with wheat straw 40:60 ratio. Proximate composition, fiber fractionation calcium phosphrous...
Twelve local adult male goats (24–30 months, 24.35±0.67 kg), divided into 2 equal groups (6 each) were fed concentrate mixture plus ad lib. oat silage (T1) and similar mixed containing 75:25 fodder : jamun leaves (T2). The (T2) contained higher level of total phenol tannin (0.84 0.63% vs. 0.24 0.03% on DMB) than T1 group. Animals T2 group showed significant difference in dry matter, organic matter intake as compared to group, but it was comparable percent live weight g/kg W0.75....
Aim: Present study pertains to lime treatment of olive meal improve its digestibility.The objective the present was assess in vitro dry matter degradability total mixed ration containing treated at varied levels maize replacement know optimum level and as small ruminant diets. Materials methods:Study carried out two phases.In phase I, A complete diet formulated with variable concentrations (0-8%) 25% subjected studies per Tilley Terry.On basis results this phase, a concentration for selected...
Study was conducted to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of Seabuckthorn leaf extract (SLE) supplementation on serum enzymatic levels in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetes mellitus Wistar rats. Thirty-two adult male rats were divided into four groups namely CON (negative control), SCO (Seabuckthorn DCO (Diabetic and DSL seabuckthorn treatment group). Diabetes by single intra peritoneal injection STZ @ 50 mg/kg body weight group SLE administered orally 100mg/kg for 40 days groups....
Aim:The current in vitro study was carried out to determine the chemical composition and inclusion level of lime treated olive cake on acid detergent fiber (ADF) replacement basis adult male goats.Materials Methods: Crude collected evaluated for proximate protein fractionation.It with 6% incubated 1 week under room temperature 2 kg sealed polythene bags after incubation.Different isonitrogenous complete diets containing 0-50% ADF were formulated as per requirement goats.In replacement,...
Study was conducted to formulate the paddy straw based complete feed blocks containing kinnow-mandarin waste (KMW) in a manual densification machine and evaluate its effect on nutrient intake digestibility of goats. Block formulated utilizing straw, KMW, wheat flour, molasses, bran, urea, mineral mixture, common salt water. Bulk density prepared 0.21 g/cm3 whereas durability 17.36%. An vivo feeding trial for 30 days duration along with during last week trial. Twelve local adult male goats...
Paddy and wheat generate multi-million tons of straw as residue.These two straws although similar in their nutrient content are quite different microstructure non-nutritive chemical composition.Present study scrutinized the effect these when fed combination compared to sole roughage on blood biochemical profile serum enzymes.Eighteen non-descript local adult male goats were randomly divided into three equal groups per randomized block design offered concentrate mixture @20g /kg metabolic...
An experiment was conducted on three hundred and twenty, one day old commercial broiler chicks (Cobb strain) to study the effect of replacement maize by graded levels pearl millet broken rice mixture (PBM) their performance. The birds were randomly divided into four groups (80 birds/group). experimental diets were: 0% (T1), 25% with PBM (T2), 50% (T3), 75% (T4). formulated isocaloric isonitrogenous as per ICAR (2013). Experiment for 42 days. body weight gain (g) significantly (P<0.05) higher...
A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of kinnow mandarin (Citrus nobilis Lour x Citrus deliciosa Tenora) waste (KMW) inclusion in ration on feed intake and nutrient utilization goats. Twelve local adult male goats (age= 8–10 months; BW= 23.00 kg) were randomly allotted two equal groups designated as control treatment. All animals fed wheat straw ad lib. supplemented with either conventional concentrate mixture (control) or 40% KMW containing (Treatment). Body weights digestibility not...
The experiment was conducted during July-February 2002 at Animal Nutrition Division of Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar located 170 m above sea level (28°22' latitude north and 79°22' longitude east) in the Northern upper Gangetic Plain India.Twenty-one local non-descript adult does, about 3 years old with a mean live weight 16.26±0.82kg were taken as experimental animals.
Twelve local adult male goats were randomly allotted to two equal groups and kept on ad libitum wheat straw, supplemented with either conventional concentrate mixture (Control) or containing walnut cake (10% w/w) (Treatment).Positive balances of calcium phosphorus observed in both without any significant (P>0.05)difference.Blood biochemical parameters within normal reference limits difference between dietary treatments, except a linear increase (P<0.05) aspartate aminotransferase activity...
