A total of sixteen 17 month of age male Holstein calves with average of (540 ± 5 Kg) weight were selected and were divided into four groups in order to the experimental complete randomized block design. The calves were fed by control groups with no fat protected and 2, 4 and 6 percentages of fat protected oils until 60 days. Feed intake, Body weight gain and feed conversion ratio were measured. The blood samples were taken to investigate the serum content of plasma protein, glucose, calcium, phosphorus, cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL and HDL. Additionally the fat and protein digestibility in each groups were measured. Data from this study showed that the highest FI and BW and the better FCR was related to the calves fed by 2 % fat protected supplement but there were no significant effects on calves performance between treatments. Feeding the fat protected supplementations lead to higher protein and fat digestibility none significantly. The higher use of calcium salts of fatty acids supplements lead to higher serum triglyceride, cholesterol, calcium and LDL significantly (P≤0.05). There were no significant differences between treatments about glucose, phosphorous and protein content in the calves were feed by different levels of calcium salts of fatty acids supplements. In conclusion we could demonstrated that using of different levels of calcium salts of fatty acids may have beneficial effects on performance and some blood biochemical in the male Holstein Calves.","PeriodicalId":8682,"journal":{"name":"Banat's Journal of Biotechnology","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90926326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was studied the effect of a biological insecticide Agricolle and two biological nano–fertilizers (Nagro and Lytovit) to a control of pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Hemiptera, Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae) and changes in plastid pigment and total nitrogen contents in alfalfa. On the basis of the sweeping with the entomological net average number of aphids and mortality were calculated on the 1, 5, 7 and 9 days after treatment. It was found that the treatment with biological products Agricolle, Nagro and Litovit used alone and in combinations reduced Acyrthosiphon pisum density in a different range. After application of Agricolle with Nagro combination, followed by Agricolle was found the lowest density and the highest aphid mortality.

Rice husk is an abundant by–product of rice processing that is dumped within the rice processing communities with negative environmental effects. Densification of rice husk into pellets and briquettes using available binders from trees used as firewood, and other agricultural wastes will make it an effective biofuel feedstock that will increase sustainability of rice production. In this study, three locally available binders (Afzelia africana aril, de–oiled A. africana aril, and groundnut shell) were chemically and physically characterize; and their effectiveness as binders for production of densified rice husk briquettes for biofuel production were studied.

A total of 320 one day Cobb 500 broiler chicks were divided and assigned into 4 groups and 5 replicates of 16 birds each. Chicks were fed by basal diet as control, 3 levels (0.7, 1.4 and 2.8 percentage) of fenugreek powder respectively. During the experimental period feed intake (FI), body weight gains (BWG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were calculated. Also, after 30 and 38 days last, the blood samples were taken from wing vein to evaluate the sheep red blood cell (SRBC) and anti-body against Influenza and New castle disease vaccine (ND). For evaluation carcass traits 4 birds of the same weight in each group were slaughtered, separated and weighed. The result obtained from this study showed that the highest FI related to the fenugreek powder and highest BW was seen in the groups that the fed by 2.8 % powder. Also, there were significant differences between treatments about FCR (p≤0.05). The SRBC, ND and Influenza titer as an immune system was for 2.8 % fenugreek powder respectively. The carcass evaluation mentioned that the highest carcass percentage was for 2.8 % fenugreek powder and there were significant differences between groups about intestine and gizzard percentage. The results showed that different levels of fenugreek powder used in experimental broilers had significant effects on intestinal microbial population. We also concluded that fenugreek powder at the present levels can enhance body performance, some carcass visceral percentage, some immune system parameters titer in Cobb 500 broiler chicks.
