Author Information Genelyn G. Madjos  from the Institute of the  Department of Biological Sciences, College of Science and Mathematics, Western Mindanao State University, Zamboanga City, Philippines Journal Name Journal of Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences | JBES Abstract Nickel miningposed a serious environmental problem due to run-offs and tailings. To address this, current techniques include excavation, chemical stabilization and soil flushing, but these methods are costly and impractical. One of the ecologically accepted treatments is phytoremediation. With the capacity of Centella asiatica (gotu kola) to thrive in moist soils with domestic effluents, this present study sought to evaluate its phytoremediation potential by employing an experimental design with three replicates of: (a

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of using canola oil with vitamin E on carcass traits of broilers. This study was carried out as 3×2 factorial experiment with 3 levels of canola oil (control, 2.00 and 4.00 percent) and 2 levels of vitamin E (0 and 150 mg/kg) in 6 treatments, 3 replicates and 14 birds in each replicate in a completely randomized design.

Effects of feeding monensin on fatty acid profile of holstein dairy cows | JBES

Image
This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of monensin on milk fatty acid profile in Holstein dairy cows. For this study 12 cows with initial weight 625 ± 48 kg were allocated to control group and monensin group, with 6 replication in each group using completely randomized design (CRD). The experiment was accomplished during 21 days including pre trial period (14d) and feedlot period (7d). Diet was given twice daily to each group. The conjugated linoleic acid content of diets with monensin was higher than other and there were significant differences (P < 0.05).
