“…The interest of the Juniperus species is also at the nutritional/functional food level and some studies, including in vivo studies on this subject, have recently been published. Inci and colleagues [ 22 ] found that low supplementation levels of J. communis berry (0.5% and 1%) in Japanese quails ( Coturnix coturnix japonica ) diets have positive impacts on some body qualities, feed intake, and live weight. Juniperus species are also valuable in terms of their wood since it is a viable construction material classified as durable or even very durable, like J. communis case [ 23 ].…”

Background: Plants and their derived natural compounds possess various biological and therapeutic properties, which turns them into an increasing topic of interest and research. Juniperus genus is diverse in species, with several traditional medicines reported, and rich in natural compounds with potential for development of new drugs. Methods: The research for this review were based in the Scopus and Web of Science databases using terms combining Juniperus, secondary metabolites names, and biological activities. This is not an exhaustive review of Juniperus compounds with biological activities, but rather a critical selection taking into account the following criteria: (i) studies involving the most recent methodologies for quantitative evaluation of biological activities; and (ii) the compounds with the highest number of studies published in the last four years. Results: From Juniperus species, several diterpenes, flavonoids, and one lignan were emphasized taking into account their level of activity against several targets. Antitumor activity is by far the most studied, being followed by antibacterial and antiviral activities. Deoxypodophyllotoxin and one dehydroabietic acid derivative appears to be the most promising lead compounds. Conclusions: This review demonstrates the Juniperus species value as a source of secondary metabolites with relevant pharmaceutical potential.

“…In contrast, only the amount of Ca (890.5 mg/kg) in KM berries is higher than that in AA (794.7 mg/kg). HungaryWhen the mean values of the results considered, KM and AA berries contain more K, Mg, Fe and Zn than AY berries and raisins Inci et al (2016). reported that Juniperus communis berries contained 61.2 g/kg K, 1.90 mg/kg Mg, 80.12 mg/kg Fe, 15.31 mg/kg Mn, 18.80 mg/kg Zn and 19.94 mg/kg Cu.…”

Berries of Juniperus drupacea L. are important non-wood product used in traditional pekmez (fruit concentrate) production in Turkey. In this article, some chemical, nutritional and mineral properties of dried mature J. drupacea berries are reported. The materials were collected from Kahramanmaraş and Adana Provinces (Turkey). The results are given in the order of Kahramanmaraş and Adana; total dry matter 92.

“…Due to present a number of pharmacologically effective materials, become to have a field for growth increment of livestock, they are supposed to promote activate digestive enzymes, stimulate immune and feed intake (Lee et al, 2003;Inci et al 2015a;2015b;Inci et al, 2016;Aydın and Alçiçek, 2017). There is a needed to innovation more efficient alternatives or blending of various alternatives to maintaining health and amendment the performance of poultry and other livestock (Fritz et al, 1993;Sogut et al, 2012;Aydın and Alçiçek, 2018).…”

This study was conducted to figure out the effect of 1% inclusion of three herbal (Moringa leaves powder, Sumac fruit powder, Thyme powders and their mixture) in the diet on broiler chick's growth performance. A total of 181 a day-old male broiler chicks (Ross 308) were randomly distributed into five dietary treatments with 3 replicates (12 birds/rep). The groups were Control (no addition, T1), 1% Moringa (Moringa oleifera) leaves powder (MLP, T2), 1% Sumac (Rhus coriaria L.) fruit powder (SFP, T3), 1% Thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) leaves powder (TLP, T4), 1% Mixture of Moringa, Sumac and Thyme leaves powder (MST, T5). The birds were offered non-pelleted diets ad libitum from beginnig to end of the trail. Live body weight, body weight gain, accumulative feed intake and feed conversion ratio were recorded weekly. Moringa leaves powder (MLP), Sumac fruit powder (SFP), the mixture of Moringa, Sumac and Thyme (MST) had significant (p<0.05) effects on growth performance. Dietary supplementation of the herbs had positive effect on live body weight (LBW) and feed conversion ratio. The highest LBW was observed in MLP and MST groups. In terms of LBW, however, there was no significant (p< 0.05) differences for the birds fed with supplemented Thyme leaves powder (TLP) relative to the control group during all total periods (0-42 d). Positive effects was observed on accumulative FCR comparing to the control group and the best significant FCR was obtained by using Moringa additive. However, there were no significant effects (P<0.05) of treatments on accumulative feed intake except the feed supplementation with Thyme only when comparing to control group and other treatments. As a result, Moringa leaves powder, Sumac fruit powder, Thyme leaves powder, and Mixture of Moringa, Sumac & Thyme leaves powder could be used as growth promoter instead of antibiotics by 1% of supplementation in the diet of broiler with no negative effects. Key words:Broiler, moringa, sumac, thyme, feed performance. Moringa, Kekik, Sumak Tozları ve Karışımının Etlik Piliçlerin Besi Performansı Üzerine Etkisi ÖzetBu çalışma, üç tıbbi aromatik bitkinin (moringa yaprak tozu, sumak meyve tozu ve kekik yaprak tozu) ve bunların karışımları) %1 oranında rasyona ilavesinin etlik piliçlerin besi performansına etkisini araştırmak amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Toplam yüz seksen adet bir günlük erkek broyler civcivleri (Ross 308), 3 tekerürlü beş gruba şansa bağlı olarak dağıtılmıştır. Gruplar; Control (T1), %1 Moringa (Moringa oleifera) tozu (T2), %1 Sumak (Rhus coriaria L.) meyve tozu (T3), %1 Kekik (Thymus vulgaris L.) tozu (T4) ve %1 Moringa, Sumak ve Kekik Karışımı tozu (T5) olarak belirlenmiştir. Deneme boyunca hayvanlara rasyon toz formunda adlibitum olarak verilmiştir. Canlı ağırlık, canlı ağırlık artışı, yem tüketimi ve yemden yararlanma haftalık olarak kaydedilmiştir. Moringa tohumları (T2), Sumak meyve tozu (T3) ve Moringa, Sumak ve Kekik karışımı (T4) broiler civcivlerdeki canlı ağırlık ve yem dönüşüm oranı üzerinde önemli (P <0.05) ve pozitif etkilere sah...
