In this case report, a sudden devoloped ventricular fibrillation following Pentothal anaesthesia in a dog and the treatment done was subjected. No abnormal findings were detected according to haemotologic and biochemical tests and ECG obtained at the preoperative period. Blood gases analysis and ECG monitoring were performed before anaesthesia induction for this experimental surgery. After the case was premedicated with Xylazine hydrochlorid (2mg/kg im), anaesthesia was induced by pentothal (Thiopental sodium 15 mg/kg iv). Following respiratoric depression, the dog was entubated and connected to the volume respiratory device. The dog was ventilated with 40% oxygene-air mixture 16 per minute. At …

Effects Of Different Maturation Periods On In Vitro Maturation Of Bovine Oocytes, Sema Bi̇rler, Serhat Pabuççuoğlu, İ. Kamuran İleri̇, Serhat Alkan, Mithat Evecen

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Primer oocytes (n=157) collected from ovaries of slaughtered cows were matured at 39°C with 95-100% humidity and under a gas mixture of 5% O 2 , 5% CO 2 and 90% N 2 for 22 (n=52), 24 (n=52) and 26 (n=53) hours. Modified Parker's Medium (MPM) supplemented with FSH and 20% ECS was used as maturation medium. At the end of these periods all oocytes were fixated in ethanol:acetic acid in the ratio of 3:1 for 24 hours and stained by %2 aceto-orcein to evaluate the maturational criteria. At the 22, 24 and 26-hours maturation groups, 23(%44.2), 27 (%51.9) and …
