Comparison Of Carbohydrate Compositions Of Total Apolipoproteins In Lipoproteins, Tayfun Güldür, Sema Ozan, Tülay İleri̇ Büyükoğlu Jan 1999

Comparison Of Carbohydrate Compositions Of Total Apolipoproteins In Lipoproteins, Tayfun Güldür, Sema Ozan, Tülay İleri̇ Büyükoğlu

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Terminal carbohydrate moieties of apolipoproteins of lipoproteins in human and goat serum were ascertained and compared. Apolipoproteins of \beta+pre-\beta (apolipoprotein B containing lipoproteins) and a lipoproteins separated by phosphotungstic acid/MgCl_2 precipitation method were applied to SDS-PAGE and blotted onto nitrocellulose membrane. Digoxigenin labelled lectins, each of which recognizes a specific sugar sequence, were incubated with apolipoproteins immobilized on a western blot membrane to probe some of carbohydrate structures commonly found in carbohydrate chains of glycoproteins.The presence of bound lectin on the membrane was detected with alkaline phosphatase labelled antidigoxigenin antibody.Sialic acid terminally linked \alpha (2--3) to galactose was detected on …


Pulmonary Aspergillosis In Geese, S. Serap Türkütanit Jan 1999

Pulmonary Aspergillosis In Geese, S. Serap Türkütanit

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Pulmonary aspergillosis were examinated in a total of 22 geese (2-13 week-old), brought from A Geese Production Station in Kars and geese breeders. The lesions were seen as a hard nodules in all cases in the lungs, and also in 3 cases in the air sacs. They were multifocalty localized in each lobules, and 1-4 mm. in diameter and yellow in color. The lesions were characterized by granulomatous pneumonie and airsacculitis. The characteristic hyphae of Aspergillus spp. were demonstrated in granuloma in histopathological sections stained by periodic acid Schiff stain.

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was conducted to determine the effect of supplemantal dietary chromium on serum total protein, urea, triglycerides, cholesterol, and serum and tissue chromium, zinc, and copper contents of pregnant rabbits, their offspring and their young rabbits. Treatment groups consisted of chromium level as follows: Control Group no supplementation chromium into basal diet, Treatment I (200 ppb Group) contained 200 ppb of supplemental chromium into basal diet, and Treatment II (400 ppb Group) contained 400 ppb of supplemental chromium into the basal diet which contained 539.17 ppb chromium. For this purpose, at the begining of the study, 36 rabbits were …


Isolation And Preparation Of Monoclonal Antibody To Ovineimmunoglobulin M, Hüseyi̇n Yilmaz, Aysan Tantaş, Ati̇lla Ilgaz, Kenton L. Morgan Jan 1999

Isolation And Preparation Of Monoclonal Antibody To Ovineimmunoglobulin M, Hüseyi̇n Yilmaz, Aysan Tantaş, Ati̇lla Ilgaz, Kenton L. Morgan

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Ovine immunoglobulin M was isolated from sheep serum using gel filtration and affinity chromatography. Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against this isotype were prepared. The specificity of the monoclonal antibody was investigated using SDS-Page, immunoblotting, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and affinity chromatography. On immunoblotting, monoclonal anti-IgM reacted with a 70 kD protein which corresponded to ovine IgM.


Monitoring And Comparing Follicular And Luteal Function Betweengenetically High- And Low-Producing Dairy Cows By Ultrasonography, Şükrü Meti̇n Pancarci Jan 1999

Monitoring And Comparing Follicular And Luteal Function Betweengenetically High- And Low-Producing Dairy Cows By Ultrasonography, Şükrü Meti̇n Pancarci

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The objectives of this study were to investigate the effectiveness of ultrasonography in monitoring ovarian activity by examining follicular growth and regression and studying the correlation between corpus luteum (CL) measurements and plasma progesterone (P4) concentrations, and to compare high-and low-production genetic lines of dairy cows regarding endogenous bovine somatotropin (bST) and milk production effects on follicular wave patterns, size and number of follicles, CL growth and plasma P4 concentrations during the estrous cycle monitored by ultrasound. Seventeen multiparous lactating Holstein cows were divided into two groups, a low-production group (control group, n=9) and a high-production group (select group, n=8). …

Investigation On Developing Sire Lines For Lamb Production (First Stage), Mustafa Kaymakçi, Reşi̇t Sönmez, Ercan Kizilay, Turgay Taşkin, Nejdet Ergül

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The investigation was performed to develope sire lines for lamb production at Acipayam state Farm. For this purpose, German Black Face (A) x Acipayam (AC) and Ramliç (R) x Acipayam (AC) cross-bred were used. According to the results; Fecundities are 109%, 72.0%, 85.0%, 95.0% and 85.0% for ACxAC, AxAC, RxAC, AxAC and RxRAC cross-bred groups respectively. Weaning weights are also 22.45 kg, 22.23 kg, 24.38 kg, 21.48 kg and 23.06kg for AC, AAC, AAAC, RAC and RAAC genotype respectively.


Comparison Of Some Production Traits In Malya And Akkaraman Sheep, Nadi̇ Çolakoğlu, Ceyhan Özbeyaz Jan 1999

Comparison Of Some Production Traits In Malya And Akkaraman Sheep, Nadi̇ Çolakoğlu, Ceyhan Özbeyaz

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Summary : This research was carried out to compare the fertility traits, greasy fleece weight and wool characteristics in breeding ewes; and the growth and survival rates of lambs in Ankaraman and Malya breeds. The data was obtained for fertility traits from 5581 Malya and 9707 Akkaraman ewes, for growth rates from 100 lambs in each breed, for greasy fleece weights from 100 ewes in each breed and for wool characteristics from 32 Malya and 28 Akkaraman ewes. Fertility traits such as lambing percentage, twinning rate, litter size and number of lambs weaned per hundred ewes lambing between 1992 and …

The Utilization Of Carp (Cyprinus Carpio) Flesh As Fish Ball, Yasemen Yanar, Hasan Fenerci̇oğlu

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In this study, the sensory properties and shelf life of fish balls prepared from carp flesh were investigated. Four study groups were prepared with different combinations of ingredients: garlic, garlic-sunflower oil, onion and onion-sunflower oil. A control group was also prepared. At the end of the sensory evaluation, the groups received between 7.4 and 9.07 points from the panelists regarding appearance, texture, succulence, odour and flavour and general acceptance. The onion and garlic groups were found to be preferable to the control group (p0.05). Vacuum-packed minced fish meat stored at -18°C for 6 months was of good quality in terms …
