Prevalence Of Bartonella Henselae, Bartonella Clarridgeiae, And Bartonella Vinsonii Subsp. Berkhoffii In Pet Cats From Four Provincial Communities In Thailand, Wilasinee Srisanyong, Ratree Takhampunya, Thidarut Boonmars, Anusak Kerdsin, Fanan Suksawat

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

Bartonella species are Gram-negative alpha proteobacteria and intracellular parasites of erythrocytes, endothelial and dendritic cells. Many are zoonotic pathogens of various mammalian reservoir hosts and are transmitted by blood-feeding arthropods. Recently, there have been several reports indicating that cats are important reservoir hosts for Bartonella pathogens, including those that cause cat scratch disease affecting humans in many countries including in Thailand. To assess more completely the role of cats as reservoir hosts for Bartonella pathogens in Thailand, 139 blood samples were collected from companion cats from a single community in each of four provinces (Khon Kaen, Kalasin, Nakhon Si Thammarat …

The Effect Of Live Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Yeast In The Diet Of Rams On The Digestibility Of Nutrients, Nitrogen And Mineral Retention, And Blood Serum Biochemical Parameters, Barbara Kowalik, Jacek Skomial, Renata Miltko, Malgorzata Majewska

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The effect of live Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast added to the diet of rams on the digestibility of carbohydrates and protein in the total tract, retention of nitrogen and mineral elements, and concentration of biochemical parameters in blood serum was examined. The experiment was carried out on 12 Corriedale rams allocated to 2 groups of 6 animals each. The control group was fed meadow hay (45.4%), concentrate (53.2%), and a vitamin?mineral mixture (1.4%), while the second group was fed the same diet supplemented with 2 g day-1 live S. cerevisiae. Adaptation to feeding lasted 21 days; the sampling period lasted 7 …
