Crude Zizyphus Jujuba cv. Junzao polysaccharides (CZP) were extracted by hot water and ultrasound-assisted extraction respectively. Using a short application of ultrasound, the yield of polysaccharides increased from 6.23 to 7.95%, which represents an increase of about 27.6%. Both CZPU and CZPH were composed of arabinose, rhamnose, glucose, galactose, and mannose. However, the molar ratio of CZPU was 5.46: 4.96: 5.17: 2.63: 1, while it was 5.46: 4.89: 3.65: 2.54: 1 for CZPH. Furthermore, CZPU had stronger antioxidant activities than CZPH by evaluating in hydroxyl radical and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay.

Introduction: The reasonable and efficient utilization of agricultural by-products as animal feed has the capacity to not only mitigate the scarcity of conventional feedstuff but also alleviate the environmental load. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of feeding citrus pomace (CP) fermented with combined probiotics on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality and antioxidant capacity in yellow-feathered broilers.

Methods: A cohort of 540 female yellow-feathered broilers (Qingyuan partridge chicken, 90-day-old) were randomly divided into three groups and, respectively, fed the basal diet (Control), diet containing 10% unfermented CP (UFCP) and diet containing 10% fermented CP (FCP).

Background: This study aimed to assess the influence of different pretreatment protocols and antioxidants application on the shear bond strength (SBS) of universal adhesive to sound (SoD) and caries-induced dentin (CID).

Methods: One hundred and twenty posterior teeth had their occlusal enamel removed, then the specimens were divided into two main groups according to dentin substrates; SoD and CID, three subgroups according to pretreatments protocols control (no pretreatment), NaOCl-treated, and Er, Cr:YSGG-treated and two divisions according to antioxidant application (with and without sodium ascorbate (SA) application). All-Bond Universal (ABU) universal adhesives was applied in self-etch (SE) mode then resin composite discs were built.
