ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of additions of different
doses of clove oil (Syzygium aromaticum L.) on cell wall component of wheat straw. For this purpose, wheat straw was
treated with 100 ppm and 200 ppm clove oil and applied at two different time
period (1 h and 5 h). The
microscopic analysis was made on cell wall components of untreated and treated
of the straw. According to the research findings, with increasing doses and time of clove oil treatment, particularly, neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent
fiber (ADF) content of straw significantly (P < 0.05) reduced, approximately at the
level of 15% for NDF and 13% for ADF, respectively. The lowest NDF, ADF, acid detergent lignin (ADL)
and cellulose contents were found in 200 ppm dose and 5 h period. However, the lowest stem section thickness likewise was
determined in 5 h period (P < 0.05), but there was
no significant difference between the dose. Consequently, it could be said that
the addition of clove oil have a positive influence on cell wall components and
stem section thickness of wheat straw.
