The aims of the present study were to determine the best time for egg stripping after ovulation and to study oocyte over-ripening in the Caspian brown trout (Salmo trutta caspius). Eggs were retained in the female abdominal cavity for 40 days post ovulation (DPO). Partial volumes of eggs stripped from 10 individually identified females at 10 days intervals and fertilized with a pool of semen ...

Cow's milk and hen's egg are ubiquitous in diets around the world and can be important sources of protein in young children. Unfortunately, milk and egg allergies are also some of the most common food allergies in childhood. Less allergenic forms of milk and egg due to heating and interactions with a food matrix, as in baked goods, are tolerated by a majority of milk- and egg-allergic patients....

We describe a case of a 25-year-old female with newly diagnosed egg allergy, presenting with both peripheral and duodenal eosinophilia suspicious for eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EG). The EG was severe enough to have likely caused acute pancreatitis. Cessation of all egg products lead to resolution of all symptoms. This represents the first report of EG manifesting as pancreatitis due to egg i...

Patients who have generated IgE antibodies to an allergen are at risk for anaphylaxis with systemic exposure to that allergen. Thus patients who have IgE-mediated egg allergy are at risk for anaphylaxis if injected with influenza vaccines containing egg protein. Published studies, however, suggest that this risk is actually quite small, likely because of the very low quantity of ovalbumin in in...

The use of egg protein preparations in clinical trials to reduce the incidence of egg allergy among infants includes a number of preparations of egg. These include whole egg, egg white protein, and egg yolk preparations. The study of the differential immune responses to these allergenic proteins in comparison is suggested as a future research area of investigation.

Many trophically-transmitted parasite larvae actively manipulate their intermediate host behaviour in ways increasing its transmission probabilities to the next host in their life cycle. Only stages infective for the next host alter host behaviour in such a way. Before reaching infectivity, parasite larvae grow into several larval stages in the intermediate host, all being non-infective for the...

haemato-biochemical studies in rainbow trout infected with saprolegnia were carried out under temperate climatic conditions of kashmir valley to find out the variation in blood parameters. the trial was carried out on 405 cultured rainbow trout fish ranging in length from 47.8 to 69.8 cm and in weight from 1300 to 1920 g. the same experiment was carried out on 2,70000.00 trout fish eggs from no...
