Evaluation Of Aflatoxicosis In Hens Fed With Commercial Poultry Feed, Dharumadurai Dhanasekaran, Annamalai Panneerselvam, Nooruddin Thajuddin Jan 2009

Evaluation Of Aflatoxicosis In Hens Fed With Commercial Poultry Feed, Dharumadurai Dhanasekaran, Annamalai Panneerselvam, Nooruddin Thajuddin

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The effect of aflatoxin in the growth of hens was histopathologically analyzed. Mycotoxigenic fungi were isolated and characterized as Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger. The aflatoxin was extracted from Aspergillus flavus and their impact on the growth pattern of hens was evaluated. The histopathological analysis reveals that more lesions were found in the vital organs of hens in comparison with the control chick group. In the present study, it is concluded that the quality of poultry feed plays the most important role in a poultry farm. It is suggested that the use of chicks resistant to aflatoxicosis will help in …

Ameliorative Effect Of Esterified Glucomannan, Sodium Bentonite, And Humic Acid On Humoral Immunity Of Broilers During Chronic Aflatoxicosis, Hasan Ghahri, Ali̇reza Talebi, Mohamad Chamani, Houshang Lotfollahian, Nazar Afzali

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

A study was conducted on the impact of aflatoxin (AF) and mycotoxin binders on immunization against Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD) and Infectious Bronchitis (IB) in chickens. Broiler chicks (7-day-old) were randomly assigned to 9 dietary treatments with 4 replicates of 12 chicks each. Treatments were 1) control; 2) diet containing corn naturally contaminated with AF (NCD); 3) NCD + 0.2% Farmagülatör DRYTM humate (FH); 4) NCD + 0.4% FH; 5) NCD + 0.6% FH; 6) NCD + 0.8% FH; 7) NCD + 1% FH; 8) NCD + 0.5% sodium bentonite (SB); and 9) NCD + 0.1% esterified glucomannan (E-GM).

Nuclear Morphometry In Relation To Tumor Grade In Canine Spontaneous Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Radostin Simeonov Jan 2009

Nuclear Morphometry In Relation To Tumor Grade In Canine Spontaneous Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Radostin Simeonov

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In a retrospective study on cytological specimens from 17 dogs with histologically confirmed cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, the morphometric variables were studied and compared to tumors' nuclear grade. The morphometric parameters evaluated in this study were mean nuclear area (MNA, µm2), mean nuclear perimeter (MNP, µm), mean nuclear diameter (D mean, µm), minimum nuclear diameter (D min, µm), and maximum nuclear diameter (D max, µm). Associations between MNA, MNP, D mean, D min, and D max and tumors' grade were assessed using the ANOVA/LSD test (Statistica 6.0, StatSoft, USA) at a level of significance of P < 0.05. The result indicated an increase in the mean values of the nuclear parameters with increasing tumor grade. In the cases examined, significant differences in MNA, MNP, and D mean occurred between tumors in all grades. Besides, no significant differences in D max (between grade I-II and II-III) and D min (grade II-III) were found. In conclusion, nuclear morphometry could be used as an additional tool for differentiating nuclear grade in canine cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas.


A Comparative Study Of Parthenogenetic Activation And In Vitro Fertilization Of In Vitro Matured Bovine Oocytes, Mesut Çevi̇k, Arzu Taş, Tolga Akkoç, Haydar Bağiş, Sezen Arat Jan 2009

A Comparative Study Of Parthenogenetic Activation And In Vitro Fertilization Of In Vitro Matured Bovine Oocytes, Mesut Çevi̇k, Arzu Taş, Tolga Akkoç, Haydar Bağiş, Sezen Arat

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of 3 chemical agents used sequentially and electrical stimuli on parthenogenetic activation of in vitro matured bovine oocytes and comparison with a standard IVF protocol for embryo developmental rates. For this purpose, oocytes were matured in tissue culture medium-199 (TCM-199) at 39 °C and 5% of CO_2 in humidified air. For IVF, matured oocytes were fertilized in Modified Tyrode-Lactate Medium. In the parthenogenetic activation process, direct current (DC) was pulsed (133 V/500 \mum) for 25 \mus and oocytes were sequentially activated with calcium ionophore (CaI) for 10 min, cycloheximide (CHX) …


Construction Of A Paed4-M2 Vector For Expressing Avian Influenza A (H9n2) Virus M2 Gene As A Universal Recombinant Vaccine Model, Seyed Mahmoud Ebrahimi, Khosrow Aghaiypour, Hassan Nili, Majid Esmailzadeh, Ali Mirjalili Jan 2009

Construction Of A Paed4-M2 Vector For Expressing Avian Influenza A (H9n2) Virus M2 Gene As A Universal Recombinant Vaccine Model, Seyed Mahmoud Ebrahimi, Khosrow Aghaiypour, Hassan Nili, Majid Esmailzadeh, Ali Mirjalili

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

We expressed the M2 gene in prokaryotic cells using the pAED4 expression vector system to produce native and purified M2 protein as a candidate for universal recombinant vaccine against influenza A subtypes. The open reading frame (ORF) of avian influenza A/chicken/Iran/101/1998 (H9N2) M2 gene was amplified by 2-step RT-PCR using specific primers and pfu DNA polymerase. pAED4 was used as expression vector, purified PCR product digested by Nde I and EcoR I restriction enzymes was ligated to the same digested site in the vector using T4 ligase to form pAED4-M2. The cloned M2 gene was confirmed by PCR and restriction …


Effect Of Phosalone On Haematological Indices In The Tilapia, Oreochromis Mossambicus, H. Abdul Jaffar Ali, V. Jaya Rani Jan 2009

Effect Of Phosalone On Haematological Indices In The Tilapia, Oreochromis Mossambicus, H. Abdul Jaffar Ali, V. Jaya Rani

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of phosalone on the tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus. The effect was assessed on the basis of the results of acute toxicity tests and comparison of results of haematological examination of a control and an experimental group exposed to phosalone. The 96 h LC_{50} is the basic value in the acute toxicity test and it was 0.26 mg/L for phosalone against the test fish. Haematological profile of the healthy fish was carried out with 2 sublethal concentrations, viz 0.0325 mg/L (1/8) and 0.065 mg/L (1/4) of phosalone. The experiment was performed semi-statically …

Counseling & Human Services Faculty Publications

In addition to helpers' moral obligation and professional commitment to treat clients in an ethical manner, enhanced consumer knowledge of ethically correct helping relationships has increased the need to recognize potential ethical dilemmas and have the skills to respond appropriately. This article describes the development and results of an updated survey of human service professionals' perceptions of ethical behavior. The results may be used to assist in the revision of the NOHS Ethical Standards and inform ethics education.

Antimicrobial Activity Of Tigecycline Against Nosocomial Pathogens In Pakistan: A Multicenter Study, Altaf Ahmed, Afia Zafar, Sajjad Mirza Jan 2009

Antimicrobial Activity Of Tigecycline Against Nosocomial Pathogens In Pakistan: A Multicenter Study, Altaf Ahmed, Afia Zafar, Sajjad Mirza

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine

OBJECTIVE: To measure the in-vitro activity of various antibiotics including tigecycline against Gram negative and positive nosocomial aerobic isolates. METHODS: A total of 430 clinical isolates of both Gram positive (143) and negative (287) aerobic bacteria were used from 3 centres during the year 2006 and 2007. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined using broth micro dilution panels. Antibiotic resistance was interpreted using CLSI guidelines.
RESULTS: Most of the isolates were resistant to more than one drug. Resistance to tigecycline was not found. Tigecycline (1 microg/ml) had low MIC against organisms tested.
CONCLUSION: This data indicates that tigecycline, …

Pets In Print Advertising - Are We Seeing More Of Rover And Fluffy? A Content Analysis Of Four Popular Magazines, Charles M. Mayo, Donna T. Mayo, Marilyn M. Helms Jan 2009

Pets In Print Advertising - Are We Seeing More Of Rover And Fluffy? A Content Analysis Of Four Popular Magazines, Charles M. Mayo, Donna T. Mayo, Marilyn M. Helms

Faculty Articles

This content analysis of advertising in four popular magazines investigates whether the role of pets-specifically dogs and cats-has changed as they have grown in popularity and power in American culture. Analysis of print advertisements from 1994 and 2004 suggests that although the frequency with which household pets appear in print advertisements has declined slightly, portrayals of "Rover" and "Fluffy" have changed to reflect society's growing fascination with and devotion to our furry family members.
