Investigation Of Brucella Infection In Milk Collected From Burdur Province, Hülya Türütoğlu, Bülent Mutluer, Yavuz Uysal

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In this study, we aimed to investigate the regional profile of bovine and ovine Brucellosis in Burdur by isolating Brucella spp. in milk and by detecting antibodies to Brucellae in milk samples. For this purpose, 404 milk samples from 101 cows and 226 milk samples from 113 ewes located in 14 different areas of Burdur were collected. The samples were examined by bacteriological and serological methods. Brucella spp. were not isolated from the milk samples. Positive results by the milk ring test (MRT) were found in 12 (3%) cow milk samples and in 40 (17.7%) ewe milk samples. Seropositivity in …

Some Hematologic Parameters During Different Phases Of The Estrous In The Cow, Hami̇t Yildiz, Hali̇l Şi̇mşek

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was performed on the blood samples of 7 Brown cows collected during the estrus, metestrus, diestrus and proestrus phases of the estrous cycle. We investigated whether or not there was a difference between these stages of the cycle with regard to hematologic parameters. Mean hematologic parameters determined during the period of the estrous cycles were found to be within the normal range. This study has shown that the erythrocyte count, total leukocyte count, hematocrit, hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin of erythrocyte, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration of erythrocyte and mean corpuscular volume of erythrocyte parameters undergo no changes between the …
