Poultry often intake energy to meet their energy needs, which is associated with both more fat and protein deposition, which is also conditioned by the presence of adequate other nutritional nutrients. The most significant supplement in creature sustenance or diets is protein, with exceptional thought given to the proportion among energy and protein in consumes less calories (energy: protein ratio EPR). This implies that a specific protein level relates with the fundamental measure of energy in the eating regimen. The article evaluated the manipulation of energy to protein ratio and its effect on broiler performance and carcass lipid profile. The author's methodology depends on analyzing and comparing other scientists’ studies and work

The current study focuses on the surface modification of an air dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) at atmospheric pressure on a polymer (epoxy). Atomic force microscopy (AFM), Hardness and Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) were used to characterize the material. Plasma was used to expose the epoxy sample for (0, 10, 20, and 30 min). The AFM study shows an increase in the time of plasma treatment and an increase in the parameter of roughening, in which the surface of the material is roughened by the plasma treatment. This plasma-induced morphological modification of the epoxy surface will also contribute to enhancing the wettability. In the DSC test, the stability of the glass transition temper

The X-ray diffraction pattern of the barium oxide nanoparticle sample was analyzed through the program to obtain the mean intensity width values and use these values to extract the particle size for all diffraction pattern lines using the Scherrer method. The nanoparticle size was calculated for each barium oxide line. Then the dislocation density was calculated through two mathematical equations, one of which depended on the particle size and the other depended on the integral breadth, a comparison was made between the results of the two dislocation densities and the particle size, where it was found

Mesoporous silica was developed to transport metoprolol tartrate (MPT). The data obtained from the kinetic experiments of adsorption of 15 ppm of MPT drug at 293 K was fitted in the pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion models. The results show that the adsorption process obeys the pseudo-first-order equation and the rate-controlling step, not just the intraparticle diffusion step. The MPT drug load onto mesoporous silica was 15.13 mg/g. The release profile shows that the MPT drug was about 55% released after 40 min when released in water, while in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) media, the release reached 90% after 60 min at body temperature (37°C). Three kinetic release versions, including first-order, K

This paper presents two important contributions to the field of numerical analysis for third-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). First, a new class of direct implicit Runge-Kutta (RK) processes, called RKTDIO, is introduced as solutions to third-order ODEs. Secondly, it develops the ERKTDIO method, which is an embedded pairwise diagonal implicit RK method. The study begins by introducing the theory of relevant-colored trees and B-series as fundamental concepts. By utilizing the order constraints, two RKTDIO methods are derived: a fifth-order method with three stages and a sixth-order method with four stages. In addition, an embedded method called ERKTDIO6(5) is derived, which has orders six and five. The derivation of the embed

While transmitting data across a network, it is important to keep in mind that some fields may contain sensitive information. One of the most pressing concerns, then, is the protection of private information. The confidentiality and integrity of an online video are the primary concerns of the suggested approach in this work. Video compression using Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG), video encryption, and video decryption are the three components that make up the proposed study. The data is encrypted using one of the most used block cipher algorithms, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) technique. The real-time needs of frame decoding can be satisfied by a software implementation. Our research leads us to believe that this has the po

This scientific study aims to introduce a new type of topological space, called "Grill v-space", with the aim of contributing to scientific knowledge in this field. New generalizations were developed for both the local function and the Kuratowski closure function in order to generalize their concepts. Subsequently, these generalizations were used to define a new topology based on the concepts associated with the grill and the v -space. The set of v -open in v -space is defined as the sum of the set of v -open forms in v -space when the grill consists of the subsets of P(X) except the

The results of the investigation showed the presence of phoretic mites associated with the red palm weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier,

In this paper, we define a cubic positive implicative-ideal, a cubic implicative-ideal and a cubic commutative-ideal of a semigroup in KU-algebra as a generalization of a fuzzy (positive implicative-ideal, an implicative-ideal and a commutative-ideal) of a semigroup in KU-algebra. Some relations between these types of cubic ideals are discussed. Also, some important properties of these ideals are studied. Finally, some important theories are discussed. It is proved that every cubic commutative-ideal, cubic positive implicative-ideal, and cubic implicative-ideal are a cubic ideal, but not conversely. Also, we show that if Θ is a cubic positive implicative-ideal and a cubic commutative-ideal then Θ is a cubic implicative-ideal. Some exam

The main goal of this work is to achieve an acceptable agreement between the obtained results and previously published results of the electrical conductivities of Krypton and Xenon weakly ionized plasma gases, which are strongly affected by the electron number density N_e and electron collision frequency. When the electron energy distribution function (EEDF) is calculated, it shows a decrease with increasing the energy for all reduced electric field values (E/N). The above calculations are done in terms of the Boltzmann transport equation solution by using a numerical technique based on the two-term approximation method, which is represented by the common code "BOLSIG+." Calculated electrical conductivities of each Xenon and Kr

In this paper, we introduce a new one-step iteration process in Banach space and prove the existence of a common random fixed point of three non-expansive multivalued random operators through strong and weak convergences of an iterative process. The necessary and sufficient condition for the convergence of a sequence of measurable functions to a random fixed point of non-expansive multivalued random operators in uniformly convex Banach spaces is also established. Our random iteration scheme includes new random multivalued iterations as special cases. The results obtained in this paper are an extension and refinement of previously known results. A new random iterative scheme for approximating random common fixed points of three random non

Although not uncommon worldwide, consanguinity has been a part of Arab culture and tradition as a means to strengthen tribal blood relations. However, this type of union has been linked to inherited diseases, particularly those of a recessive nature (e.g., hemoglobinopathies). Furthermore, several recent studies have documented highly significant associations between consanguineous parentage and common multifactorial diseases, including but not limited to hypertension, mental disorders, and several cardiovascular diseases. In Iraq, the prevalence of consanguinity is very high and still on the rise. This has resulted in an increased prevalence of inherited diseases and has significant negative impacts on Iraq’s limited economy. To addre
