Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Alterations in Zinc Deficient Sheep Associated by HyperlactatemiaAli Hafez El-FarBlood samples from diseased and clinically healthy Balady sheep of both sexes were collected and subjected for biochemical analysis of serum glucose, fructosamine, lactate, growth hormone, insulin, creatine phosphokinase, Lactate dehydrogenase and aldolase. The obtained results revealed a significant decrease in serum zinc and growth hormone were stated. In contrary, serum glucose and lactate, insulin, CPK, LDH and aldolase were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2013 · 6,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-Yield Production of Bioactive Flatfish (Paralichthys olivaceus) Myostatin-1 Prodomain in Escherichia coliIl Shik Shin, Hyung-Joo Jin, Jeong Hwan Kim et al.Myostatin Propeptide (MstnPro), the N-terminal part of Mstn precursor molecule, binds to Mstn and suppress its activity. Mstn is a potent negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth in many animal species, thus MstnPro has a great potential to be used as an agent to enhance skeletal muscle growth in animal species. Bioactive fish Myostatin-1 Propeptide (Mstn1Pro) proteins were recently expressed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Polymorphism Exon 9-11 at the Leptin Gene Receptor in Breeder Hens of Mazandaran Native FowlsHossein Ali Abbasi, Shahabodin Gharavysi, Rohullah AbdullahpourProblem statement: Leptin a 16 kD protein synthesized by white adipose tissue and involved in regulation of feed intake, energy balance, fertility and immune function. In order to evaluate the leptin gene receptor polymorphism, we have used a Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) method. Approach: Blood samples were collected from randomly chosen 100 native fowls breeding station of Mazandaran. The … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Polymorphism at the Insulin Like Growth Factor-I Gene in Mazandaran Native Chicken using Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism MethodHossein Ali Abbasi, Mohsen KazemiProblem statement: Molecular genetics selection on individual genes is a promising method to genetically improve economically important traits in chickens. The Insulin like Growth Factor-I (IGF1) gene may play important roles in growth of multiple tissues, including muscle cells, cartilage and bone. Approach: In the present study polymorphism of the promoter and 5' untranslated region of IGF-1 gene of Mazandaran … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 8 Aug 2011 · 7,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Supplemental Lysine and Methionine on Growth Performance and Body Composition for Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)Hui Jun Yang, Yong Jian Liu, Li Xia Tian et al.Problem statement: The utilization of crystalline amino acids was detected for growth performance and body composition of juvenile grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). Approach: L-Lysine sulphate and Methionine Hydroxy Analog-Ca (MHA-Ca) were selected for determination. Two diets were formulated with or without amino acids supplementation. Each diet was assigned to 10 tanks in a completely randomized design for 8 weeks. Results: … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,657 accessesView PDFCite
