In this study, the effect of chlorogenic acid obtained as an antioxidant from Green Coffee Extract () on the shelf life of Hazelnut Paste () was investigated at 4, 25, and 40 °C for 3 months. The analysis of variance showed that the effect of (Additive Ratio) × (Temperature) × (Storage Time) interaction on Peroxide Number (), tocopherols, and phenolics () of mixtures was found to be significant ( < ). factor on Hunter L*, a*, and b* color values, -radical scavenging activity and antioxidant activity (), factor on oleic/linoleic acid ratio (), and and interactions on free fatty acid were more effective ( < ).

Compared to control, incorporating of BMWE decreased (P < .01) the pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), MMb, and hue angle values of both AP and VP beef patties, while improving the redness (a*) and chroma values (P < .

In this study, the levels of boron (B), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), lithium (Li), nickel (Ni), selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn) microelements in 16 hazelnut samples were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and atomic absorption spectroscopy after microwave digestion, and are discussed for human nutrition and health. Significant differences were observed between the microelement contents of the 16 varieties (P < 0.01).

Rotavirus antigens were detected from fecal samples by latex agglutination (LA), ELISA and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Rotavirus antigen positivity by Latex, ELISA and PAGE were 15, 55%, 12.

Newcastle disease virus (NDV) has antineoplastic and immunostimulatory properties, and it is currently being clinically tested in anticancer therapy. In order to analyze the immunostimulatory effects of NDV on bovine papillomatosis, we inoculated 14 cows subcutaneously with an attenuated vaccine containing the LaSota strain of NDV (LS-NDV). Four cows with papillomatosis served as controls.

Thirty-five sick calves < 30 days old that suffered from enteritis, respiratory disease, or both were considered suitable for inclusion in this study by satisfying clinical and laboratory criteria suggestive of septicemia. At admission, blood samples were collected from all calves to determine the prevalence of high concentrations of TNF.
