The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
A study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary graded levels of melamine, urea-formaldehyde (UF) and their mixture on growth performance, carcass quality, melamine residues and microscopic changes in broiler tissues from d-1 to d-42 followed by a 7-d feeding of withdrawal diets. One thousand and forty 1-d-old equal mixed-sex Arber Acres broiler were assigned to 13 dietary treatments with 4 replicate pens of 20 chicks assigned to each treatment. The diets of melamine, UF and their mixture contained four graded levels (0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00%) but no melamine or UF was added to the control diet. There …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
The antimicrobial activities of organic releasing chlorine disinfectant (Virusnip™) was evaluated and compared by semi-quantitative suspension-neutralization method under clean condition in vitro. The test organisms were clinical bacterial isolates of hemolytic Escherichia coli, Salmonella Typhimurium, Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Hadar, Salmonella Infantis, and Salmonella Virchow. Fungal isolates were Candida albicans and Trichophyton mentagophytes. Four sets of Virusnip™ concentrations were prepared at 1:100, 1:200, 1:400 and 1:1000 for bacteria and 3 sets of 1:100, 1:200 and 1:400 for fungi. Each set of various concentrations was kept at room temperature for 1, 2 and 7 days before use. The assays were performed at …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
In order to develop the most practical plastination specimens used for anatomical study, the aim of the present study was to compare between using acetone and absolute alcohol for dehydration in plastination procedure. Ten pig heart specimens were used in the present study and plastination procedure was processed by using acetone (group 1) or absolute alcohol (group 2) for dehydration. The results showed that dehydration by acetone resulted in more natural color with no shrinkage of the heart specimens while dehydration by alcohol caused darker color and more shrinkage. However, the advantage of using alcohol was that it gave the …

K. parviflora is a medicinal plant possessing high potential for development of various health products. The objective of this chronic toxicity study was to investigate the safety of ethanolic extract of chronic Kaempferia parviflora Wall ex Bak in Wistar rats. The animals were randomly divided into five groups, twenty four rats each (12 males and 12 females). Three treatment groups were orally administered with K. parviflora extract at doses of 5, 50 and 500 mg/kg/day for six months respectively, which were equivalent to 1, 10 and 100 times of human use, while two control groups were orally given with distilled …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
The aim of the present study is to determine the distribution of immune cells within the endosalpinx related to the ovarian function in gilts culled due to repeat breeding and anoestrus. A total of 30 reproductive organs from culling crossbred Landrace x Yorkshire gilts were collected from commercial swine herds in Thailand and categorized into 3 groups, i.e. anoestrus, repeat breeding and non-involved in reproductive disorder gilts (control group). The ovaries and oviducts were separated from the reproductive tracts and macroscopically investigated. The oviducts were divided into the utero-tubal junction (UTJ), the isthmus, the ampulla and the infundibulum. The gilts …

The molecular classification of the infectious laryngotracheitis virus from chicken embryo origin (CEO) vaccine, tissue culture origin (TCO) vaccine and field isolates by the sequence of ICP4 genes from CEO and TCO vaccines in the GenBank was performed for the different sequence analysis. The sequences of TCO vaccine virus (accession no. EU104908) were used as a prototype for a primer design to cover the region of 450 basepairs (bp) by Primer3 software. The simulation sequences of CEO vaccine virus (accession no. EU104900) and TCO vaccine virus (accession no. EU104908) from PCR reaction were selected for restriction enzyme. Hga I could …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Salbutamol residues in swine tissues and fluids were investigated. Tissue, serum and urine samples were collected from 33 pigs after 14 days of oral administration of 3 ppm salbutamol. The concentrations of salbutamol were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and further confirmed by capillary electrophoresis. The highest urinary concentration of salbutamol was 145.12 ng/ml at 18 hour and remained detectable for 30 days after the last feeding. Salbutamol was undetectable in serum samples. The highest concentrations of salbutamol in liver, kidney, lung, heart, brain and muscle were 70.42 ng/g, 31.88 ng/g, 26.06 ng/g, 6.76 ng/g, 3.41 ng/g and 2.97 ng/g, …

The Efficacy Of Pure Natural Repellents On Rat Responses Using Circular Open Field, Sarinee Kalandakanond-Thongsong, Suwaporn Daendee, Boonrit Thongsong, Vivat Chavananikul
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Rodent infestation is considered as one of the major pest problems since it is not only acting as a health hazard, but also causes damages to household, agricultural fields and even transportation business. The use of rodenticides is a common approach to rodent control, however, most rodenticides are poisonous to man. Therefore, using natural extracts as a rat repellent may be a better alternative. In the current study, various natural extracts were experimented whether they could repel a rat when testing in the behavioral model, a circular open field. The tested substances were wintergreen oil, chilli, peppermint oil, bergamot oil …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Forced impregnation process is normally performed under vacuum at freezing temperature which requires expensive plastination apparatus. To reduce the cost in the plastination process, forced impregnation of porcine hearts under two different environments, which are at the freezing temperature (-20oC) and at room temperature (22-25oC), was compared. Twelve porcine hearts were collected from a slaughter house, and divided into the groups, six in each, and subjected to be plastinated by S10 standard technique at the two temperatures. Although the forced impregnation at room temperature, also the curing process, was more time-consuming, all hearts from both groups produced satisfying plastinated specimens. …

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship of calcium concentration in seminal plasma on elephant semen quality including of volume, concentration, pH and percentage of progressive motility, dead sperm and abnormal morphology, respectively. Semen collection and evaluation were done in 9 elephants of Thai Elephant Conservation Centre, National Elephant Institute, Forest Industry Organization at Lampang. Calcium in seminal plasma was measured by using colorimetric method. Data were analyzed by using Linear Regression. The results revealed that amount of calcium in seminal plasma was negative correlated with only percentage of progressive motility (p<0.05). Ejaculates were separated into three groups based on their progressive motility percentage including of low, moderate and high-motile semen (0-5%, >5-40% and >50%, respectively) and …0.05).>

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
PCR-RFLP technique was performed to detect the distribution differences of the resistant and sensitive alleles of S631N site of Mx gene in 8 chicken populations. The results showed the average frequencies of resistant allele A and sensitive allele G were 0.4995 and 0.5005, respectively, and the average value of observed heterozygosis and Shannon’s index were 0.6163 and 0.5232. Three populations were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium at this site (p>0.05). The Ewens-Watterson test indicated that this site was neutral in all the other populations except for Rugao. The dendrograms based on allele frequency divided the 8 populations into 3 clusters, which …
