The maintenance of corneal and normal eye function is necessary for the ocular health and integrity. Tear plays an important role in defense mechanism and nutrition of eye. The Schirmer tear tests (STT I, II) are widely used in ophthalmic examination to evaluate tear production as an aid to diagnose eye diseases. The aim of this study was to compare the different effect of anesthetic combinations and their action period on tear production in healthy rabbits. Forty healthy New Zealand female rabbits (mean weight 2.34 ± 0.67 kg), four months old, were used as materials. The animals were divided into …

With this study, it was aimed to assess the effects of experimentally induced dexmedetomidine-ketamine (DK) and xylazineketamine (XK) combinations on clinical parameters and hemodynamic and hematological parameters in rabbits. In the study, 16 male New Zealand breed rabbits were divided into two groups. Group DK (n = 8) was administered dexmedetomidine (25 μg/kg) and ketamine (30 mg/kg) in the same injector, and Group XK (n = 8) was administered xylazine (4 mg/kg) and ketamine (30 mg/kg) in the same injector through the intramuscular (IM) route. Following the injection, the rabbits' reflexes were tested approximately every 30 s. Hemodynamic parameters were …
The Effect Of Anesthetic (2-Phenoxyethanol) Application On Some Biochemical And Hematological Parameters In Russian Sturgeon (Acipenser Gueldenstaedtii) And Siberian Sturgeon (Acipenser Baerii) During Transport, Selçuk Duman
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Experiments were carried out to determine the effect of 2-phenoxyethanol to reduce stress response during the transportation of Russian and Siberian sturgeons. In transportation experiment 1 (TE$_{1}$), Siberian sturgeons (687.2 ± 17.41 g) were stocked in tanks and transported for 90 min (stocking density = 65 ± 0.71 kg/$m^{3}$). Before transport, 0.5 mg/L 2-phenoxyethanol was applied to the first group (TE$_{1-A}$, n = 285) but not to the second group (TE$_{1-B}$, n = 287). In transportation experiment 2 (TE2), Russian sturgeons (1873 ± 159 g) were divided into two groups and stocked in tanks as they have a density of …
Anesthetic And Sedative Efficacy Of Peppermint (Mentha Piperita) And Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia) Essential Oils In Blue Dolphin Cichlid (Cyrtocara Moorii), Erkan Can, Esma Sümer
Anesthetic And Sedative Efficacy Of Peppermint (Mentha Piperita) And Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia) Essential Oils In Blue Dolphin Cichlid (Cyrtocara Moorii), Erkan Can, Esma Sümer
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
The use of different essential oils (Eo$_{s}$), which are considered as a good alternative to synthetic materials, is increasing day by day in fish species. Nevertheless, studies on the anesthetic effect of peppermint Eo (Mentha piperita; MPEo) and lavender Eo (Lavandula angustifolia; LAEo) are scarce. In the present study, the effective concentrations of three anesthetic materials (MPEo, LAEo, and MS-222) were previously determined in the concentrations range of 100-400 ppm in Cyrtocara moorii juveniles (4.92 ± 1.03 g and 7.13 ± 1.22 cm) with the criteria of appropriate induction time (AI$_{t}$) and ready recovery time (RRt) (Trial 1). Afterwards, four …
Hematological Effects Of Etomidate And Tricaine In Common Carp, Malgorzata Witeska, Beata Teodorczuk, Katarzyna Lugowska
Hematological Effects Of Etomidate And Tricaine In Common Carp, Malgorzata Witeska, Beata Teodorczuk, Katarzyna Lugowska
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Hematological effects of etomidate and tricaine at concentrations causing general anesthesia or sedation of carp juveniles were compared. Recovery of body balance took similar time in the case of both anesthetics, but fish treated with etomidate were depressed for several hours, while those subjected to tricaine immediately regained normal behavior. Immediately after exposure anesthetics caused minor hematological changes; the only statistically significant effects (decrease of hematocrit and plasma glucose) occurred after sedation with etomidate. One week after exposure a significant increase in mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration occurred in all groups of fish compared to the previous …

The objective of this study was to evaluate isoflurane after premedication with xylazine and induction with ketamine in camels. Six healthy adult female dromedary camels were premedicated with xylazine (0.2 mg/kg, IV). Twenty minutes later, anesthesia was induced with ketamine (2 mg/kg, IV) and was maintained with isoflurane in 100% oxygen. Onset and duration of anesthesia were recorded. Rectal temperature, respiratory rate, heart rate, oxygen hemoglobin saturation, and blood pressure were measured before and 20 min after xylazine administration and every 10 min thereafter until recovery. Lead II electrocardiogram was used to monitor camels for the presence of arrhythmias. Venous …

Comparison Of Sevoflurane And Isoflurane Effects On Cardiovascular Andrespiratory System During Spontaneous Ventilation In Angora Goats, Ali̇ Kumandaş, Ertuğrul Elma
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Seven healthy Angora goats were used to compare the effects of isoflurane and sevoflurane on the cardiovascular and respiratory systems during anesthesia periods. Once anesthesia was induced with propofol at 5.1 ± 0.9 mg/kg, it was maintained with isoflurane at 1%-3% in the first treatment period and sevoflurane at 2%-4% in the second treatment period after a 15-day interval. Heart rates measured immediately after anesthesia induction and 5 min later were found to be statistically significant between anesthetic groups (P < 0.05). Mean blood pressure in the isoflurane group decreased (75.7 ± 7.2 to 59.8 ± 9.8 mmHg) (P < 0.05) throughout the anesthesia period. It was determined that respiratory rate in sevoflurane treatment was lower than that in isoflurane treatment. In terms of time to stand up, sevoflurane-administered animals recovered significantly faster than animals intubated with isoflurane anesthesia (13.1 ± 4.4 and 25.0 ± 8.6 min) (P < 0.05). According to cardiopulmonary values, the respiratory rate was lower in the sevoflurane-applied animals compared to that of those receiving isoflurane anesthesia, although the difference was not statistically significant, and hypercapnia were not observed in either group. Consequently, it was determined that in the Angora goat, propofol-sevoflurane anesthesia exerts lower pressure on the cardiovascular system than isoflurane anesthesia. At the same time, recovery from sevoflurane anesthesia was shorter, and therefore it can be preferred to other anesthesia agents for routine anesthesia.

Effect Of Adrenergic Receptor Blockade With Yohimbin, Metroprolol Or Prazosin Onarrhythmogenic Dose Of Epinephrine In Xylazine-Kethamine Anesthetized Dogs, Ömer Bozdoğan, Abdullah Doğan
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
The arrhythmias occurring and caused to death during the anaesthesia is generated endogenous release of epinephrine or norepinephrine. Therefore, the effects of yohimbine (alpa-2 blocker), prazosin (alpha-1 blocker), metoprolol (beta-1 blocker) on the arrhythogenic dose of epinephrine in 10 dogs anesthetized with xylazine and kethamine combination, were researched in this study. The infusion of epinephrine, 1 mg/ml/min; yohimbine, 0.125 mg/kg; prazosin, 0.1 mg/kg; metoprolol 0.5 mg/kg in dose were made intravenously. The dose of epinephrine produced ventricular premature contraction and ventricular tachycardia were determined as total dose of epinephrine in mg/kg, given until the time that arrhythmia appeared. Metoprolol and …
