Role of Bioactive Compounds on Protein Utilization in Ruminants: A Review
Abstract: Insufficient nutrition is the primary drive of low productivity by ruminants. These insufficiencies can be corrected by supplementation with high-density feeds and locally available tree legumes. These tree legumes contain various types of bioactive compounds, which can be defined as secondary plant metabolites (PSM) that are extra nutritional substances having pharmacological or toxicological effects in man and animals. Besides the primary biosynthetic, the secondary metabolites are also produced within the …

Eco-Friendly Corrosion Inhibition of Aluminum Alloys with Acacia nilotica in Acidic Media
Abstract: Gravimetric analysis was used to examine the corrosion inhibitory effects of Acacia nilotica extract in 0.5 N H2SO4 on aluminum alloy at different concentrations and at 303 K. At a corrosion inhibitor concentration 0.45% at 303 K, the inhibition efficiency is found to be remarkably high (52.25%). Results show that the extract's capacity to inhibit was caused by its adsorption onto the metal surface via the Langmuir adsorption process. For …
