    Heavy Metal Accummulation in muscles and total bodies of mullus barbatus, trachurus trachurus and engraulis encrasicolus captured from the coast of sinop, black sea
    (University of Punjab (new Campus), 2016) Gundogdu A.; Culha S.T.; Kocbas F.; Culha M.
    The levels of heavy metals viz., Cd, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, Zn and Al were determined by ICP-AES in the muscles and total bodies of Mullus barbatus (Linnaeus 1758), Trachurus trachurus (Linnaeus 1758), Engraulis encrasicolus (Linnaeus 1758) captured from the coast of Sinop. The order of the levels of the heavy metals in the total fish samples was Fe > Zn > Al > Pb > Cu > Ni > Cd, whereas in the muscles, the order was Zn > Fe > Cu > Al > Pb > Ni > Cd. The experiment results are discussed by comparison with literature values. Copy 2016 Zoological Society of Pakistan.

    Effects of the Dietary Inclusion of Lentil Byproducts on the Performance, Internal Organs Weight and Carcass Yield of Growing Quails
    (University of Punjab (new Campus), 2022) Eratak S.; Çabuk M.; Alcicek A.
    This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of lentil byproducts on the growth performance, relative weight of internal organ and carcass traits of growing quails. Day-old quails (240; Coturnix coturnix japonica) were randomly divided into 4 treatments, each with 4 replicates: control, 10%, 15% and 20% lentil byproducts—fed to the quails between 1 to 35 days of age. The mash experimental diets were isocaloric and isonitrogenous. No significant effects of the lentil byproduct inclusion level were observed on the mean total feed consumption, feed conversion ratio and body weight. Similarly, the relative weight of internal organs and carcass yield were not significantly affected by lentil byproducts’ inclusion levels. The results indicate that lentil byproducts might be included in the diet of growing quails up to a level of 15% with no negative effects. Copyright 2022 Zoological Society of Pakistan.
