Effects Of Permethrin At A Prophylactic Dose For Ectoparasite Infection On Cholinesterase Activity In Dogs, Piyarat Chansiripornchai, Niwat Chansiripornchai

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

Effects of permethrin at a prophylactic dose for ectoparasite infection on cholinesterase (ChE) activity was evaluated. Eight healthy dogs were exposed to a spot-on formulation of permethrin on day 0. The results of serum ChE activity in all of the dogs which was measured at 24 h after exposure to permethrin significantly decreased when compared to those before exposure. However, the serum ChE activity in all the dogs which was measured at 36 and 96 h after exposure to permethrin showed no significant difference as compared to those before exposure. There were no clinical signs in all dogs throughout the …


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 …

Effects Of Two Different Types Of Montmorillonite On Growth Performance And Serum Profiles Of Broiler Chicks During Aflatoxicosis, Yinghua Shi, Zirong Xu, Yu Sun, Chengzhang Wang, Jianlei Feng

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Experiments were conducted to compare the efficacy of montmorillonite (M) and montmorillonite nanocomposite (MN) to reduce the toxicity of aflatoxin (AF) in broiler chicks from 0 to 42 days of age. A total of 240 chicks were assigned to 6 dietary treatment groups (0 g of adsorbents and 0 mg of AF/kg feed, 3 g of M/kg feed, 3 g of MN/kg feed, 0.11 mg of AF/kg feed, 0.11 mg of AF plus 3 g of M/kg feed, and 0.11 mg of AF plus 3 g of MN/kg feed). Compared to the control, AF alone significantly decreased ADG and feed …
