The aim of this research is to study the effect of sex, age and anatomical location on
the chemical composition and amino acids of Syrian fattened camel meat.
Samples from dorsal rectangular muscle (Longissimus dorsi), and Semimembranous
muscle in
three age groups (1.5 - 2 years, 3 - 4 years and 5 - 6 years) were analyzed
in triplicates from every age group and from each sex.
Percentage of moisture and protein in the flesh of males was higher than the flesh of
females. Moisture and protein decreased, while fat and ash increased according of animal's
age. Moisture, protein and ash were higher in Semimembranous muscle, while fat was low.
The amounts of amino acids were higher in the flesh of males than the flesh of
females, but the amount of methionine was opposite. The amounts of valine, iso-leucine,
methionine, alanine, glutamine, and tyrosine decreased, while The amount of leucine,
threonine, tryptophan, phenylalanine and aspartic increased by animal age. The amounts of
valine, leucine, methionine, alanine, arginine, histidine, glutamine and proline increased
while the quantities of iso-leucine, threonine, tryptophan, phenyl-alanine, aspartic, tyrosine
and glutamine decreased in semimembranous muscle compared with dorsal rectangular
muscle.
Ten samples of dry, cooked Chickpea, Homos with Tahina, and Falafel were
randomly collected from different places in Damascus and urban side during
2003-2004 with an average weight of 200g for each sample. Chemical
composition, amino acids, fatty
acids, and minerals were determined to
investigate the effect of cooking and frying on the nutritional value of chickpea
products.
The research aims to study the effect of certain organic and amino
compounds in the growth and production of tomato under green
houses conditions.Hulay F1 hybrid tomato and two organic
commercial vehicles differing in composition Hupost and
Boldo
uzerwere used.The experiment done in a way randomized
complete blocks designed , with three replicates per treatment , and
10 plants per replicate . Seedlings WERE Prepared in beet moss
using trays of Alstrepor inside the greenhouses.
