“…The basal diet was fed without supplements (control group) or supplemented with NSS levels of 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% (Table 1). NSS contain crude protein, crude fiber, ether extract, moisture and ash (21.16%, 10.92%, 31.97%, 5.58% and 1.88%), respectively according Mohammed (2016).…”

The present study targets to look deep at the influence of Nigella sativa seeds (NSS) supplementation on hematological, blood biochemical measurements, liver and kidney functions and antioxidant enzymes of Arbor Acres broiler chicks. A total of 140 unsexed one day old Arbor Acres broiler chicks were randomly divided into four treatment groups during the period from 1-35 days of age. The chicks were randomly assigned in a straight run experimental design among four treatments, each replicated 7 times with 5 unsexed chicks per replicate. The 1 st group was fed a commercial basal diet without any supplementation (control), the 2 nd , 3 rd and 4 th groups were fed control diet supplemented with NSS at 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% levels. Chicks fed basal diet and basal diet without supplementation or with 1.5% NSS had significantly higher RBCs than the 0.5 and 1% NSS supplemented groups. Chicks fed the NSS at 0.5% showed a higher plasma albumin level than the control group, 1 and 1.5 NSS groups. Feeding diet supplemented with 1% NSS had significantly (P≤0.05) achieved the lowest triglyceride and cholesterol compared with chicks fed diet that contained 0.5 and 1.5% NS seeds groups. Significantly (P≤0.05) higher high-density lipoprotein (HDL) was recorded in chick fed diet that contained 1.5% NSS compared with the control and the other treatments. Chicks fed diet that contained 1% NSS had significantly (P≤0.05) achieved a lower plasma aspartate amino transferase (AST). All of supplementation with different NSS levels had a significantly (P≤0.05) higher plasma creatinine and lower plasma urea to creatinine ratio than the control group. Chicks fed diet contained 0.5% NSS had significantly (P≤0.05) achieved a higher plasma superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity compared with the control, 1 and 1.5% NSS supplemented groups. Chicks fed the diet containing 1% NSS showed higher plasma glutathione level than the control group, 0.5 and 1.5% NSS groups. Feeding diet with supplemented 0.5 and 1.5% NSS were significantly (P≤0.05) increased plasma glutathione reductase and catalase compared with the control and 1% NSS groups. Conclusion: These findings indicated that NSS had improved lipid profile, liver function and antioxidant profile of broiler chicks. Thus, 1% NSS is considered safe due to having no acute toxic side effects as reported through the experimental period.

“…Results in Table (5) show the combination effect between Black cumin species and fertilizer on seed yield and its components traits at Qlyasan, Kanipanka, and the average of both locations. At Qlyasan locations, no significant effects were recorded for the combination of Black cumin species and fertilizer treatments on all of the traits, except for the number of seed capsules -1 , and the weight of seeds plant -1 was found to be significant (p≤0.05).…”

Two experiments were conducted in the autumn season of 2019-2020 to investigate the impact of two species belonging to the Nigella genus under various fertilization conditions. Both experiments followed the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) and were replicated three times at the Qlyasan and Kanipanka location. The results of the average of both locations, it was observed that N. sativa outperformed N. arvensis in terms of seed yield, fixed oil yield and essential oil yield, achieving 607, 138, and 8 kg ha-1, respectively. Notably, when a 2% organic manure application was utilized, higher seed yield, fixed oil yield, and essential oil yield were achieved at 659, 160, and 9 kg ha-1, respectively. The most favorable outcomes of 676 kg ha-1 for seed yield, 174 kg ha-1 for fixed oil yield, and 10 kg ha-1 for essential oil yield were attained through a combination of N. sativa and the application of 2% organic manure fertilization. Comparatively, the Kanipanka location demonstrated greater results than the Qlyasan location, with seed yields of 621 kg ha-1, fixed oil yields of 137 kg ha-1, and essential oil yields of 8 kg ha-1.
