The study aimed to determine the effect of alcoholic extract of the wormwood plan )Artemisia -herba -alba) extract on some physical and sensory characteristics of minced chicken meat kofta and the extent of the shelf life of chicken meat during periods of cold storage and to compare it with imported commercial artemisinin. Concentrations of (2, 3, 4) mg/g Alcoholic extract of wormwood and commercial artemisinin for minced chicken meat samples samples were added to minced chicken meat. Microbial tests were conducted on the meat before cooking and during storage periods. After cooking, physical and sensory tests were conducted on the product. T

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of adding sumac powder, red pepper, and their mixture to feed on immune traits and the microbial community of the digestive tract of broiler chickens that are raised for 42d. Two hundred non-sexed chicks of the Ross 308 breed were used,. The chicks had an initial weight of 37 g per chick. They were randomly distributed among per each coop. The experiment included four treatments with five replicates each, with an average of 10 chicks per replicate. During the experimental period, the chicks were fed three types of balanced feed containing protein and energy. While the control treatment (T1) consisted of a standard feed without any additions, Add

In the spring season of 2023, a field experiment was carried out in a private field located in the al-Dura/Hor Rajab area. The purpose of the experiment was to evaluate the effects of various levels of bio-fertilizer (mycorrhiza and azospirillium bacteria) and the addition of organic fertilizer AgriM40 on the growth and yield of sorghum in saline soil. The experiment also examined the influence of two levels of water stress on the sorghum plants. The soil used in the experiment was a saline soil. The experimental design for the study site was the Split Split-Block arrangement with a randomized complete block design (RCBD). The study involved three factors: the primary factor was irrigation breaks, with two levels 5 and 10 days, t

The isolate of fenugreek protein and fenugreek gum were extract previously obtained using steps conducted from Fenugreek seed. The fenugreek seed protein isolate (FPI) and Fenugreek seed gum (FG) were prepared as a coacervates complex as well as they were studied its characteristics. The best proportion of FPI-FG were optimized to obtain the highest production of (capsule shell) coacervates complex support by estimating of zeta potential and turbidity values. It was found the pH (4.0), FPI- to-FG proportion(6 protein to1 gum) had the best yield for complex production .The freeze-drying dried technique was ultilized to obtain the

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of substituting wheat flour with rice flour and fortifying it with varying concentrations of dextran in the mixtures utilized for biscuit production. Additionally, the study aims to examine the flakiness and qualitative features of the resulting biscuits. The findings indicated that there was a positive correlation between the percentage of dextran and the diffusion coefficient of the biscuits. Specifically, the diffusion coefficient increased as the percentage of dextran increased. For instance, the diffusion coefficient reached 10.8 cm when the biscuits were treated with a 3.5% replacement of dextran, and it further increased to 12.8 cm when the biscuits were treated with

ABSTRACT

            The controversy is currently revolving around industrial additives, including antioxidants, their negative effects on consumer health and the emergence of various and various diseases, which led scientists and researchers to intensify most studies on natural antioxidants and their synthesis from medicinal plants mentioned in ancient medicine and in divine books as potential antioxidants of increasing importance. Therefore, this study was designed to synthesize silver nitrate particles from plant leaf extracts (Figs, Olives, and Moringa) and study their effect on bacterial inhibition of each of the undesirable Coliform bacteria (E-Coli,
