Toxoplasmosis is a major zoonotic disease of warm-blooded animals caused by Toxoplasma gondii. Cats are the only definitive host and they excrete environmentally resistant T. gondii oocysts in their faeces. Coproscopy was used to detect oocysts of enteric coccidians and then Copro-PCR was employed to test specifically for T. gondii in 470 cat samples. The prevalence of T. gondii oocysts was 2.3...

Dexlansoprazole (DSP) is a proton pump inhibitor, it used to treat GERD and ulcer colitis. DSP works by decreasing the volume of acid in stomach. an acid-labile medication that may be destroyed stomach's acidic pH. A coating technique was postpone drug release stomach, which can extend pharmacological activity. Shellac develop sustain tablet dexlansoprazole as retardation (dexlansoprazole) obse...

Turkey reoviruses (TRVs) can cause arthritis, tenosynovitis, and enteric diseases in turkeys, leading to huge economic losses. The TRVs are tentatively divided into turkey arthritis reoviruses (TARVs) and turkey enteric reoviruses (TERVs) depending on the type of disease they produce. This study was conducted to determine the survival of these viruses in autoclaved and nonautoclaved poultry lit...

Heat-triggered fruit opening and delayed release of mature seeds are widespread among plants in fire-prone ecosystems. Here, the material characteristics of the seed-containing follicles of Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae), which open in response to heat frequently caused by fire, are investigated. Material analysis reveals that long-term dimensional stability and opening temperatures of follicle...

Recombinant factor VIII Fc (rFVIIIFc) is a fusion protein consisting of a single B-domain-deleted (BDD) FVIII linked recombinantly to the Fc domain of human IgG1 to extend half-life. To determine if rFVIIIFc could be further improved by maintaining the heavy and light chains within a contiguous single chain (SC), we evaluated the activity and function of SC rFVIIIFc, an isoform that is not proc...

The ubiquitous commensal bacteria harbour genes of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), often on conjugative plasmids. Antimicrobial use in food animals subjects their enteric commensals to antimicrobial pressure. A fraction of enteric Escherichia coli in cattle exhibit plasmid-gene mediated AMR to a third-generation cephalosporin ceftiofur. We adapted stochastic differential equations with diffusio...

Ahe abdominal distension went on increasing and the constipation became obstinate without any flatus being Passed. There was, .however, no more vomiting, though r jlrs.t and nausea were prominent complaints. Enemata, administered at the ru...

Enteric-Tek (Flow Laboratories, Inc., Roslyn, N.Y.) is a new system designed for the identification of Enterobacteriaceae and consists of a round, multicompartmented plastic plate with 11 peripheral wells and 1 center well incorporating 14 biochemical reactions. Only one reagent (Kovacs reagent) is required to complete the biochemical test results for generation of a five-digit number for compu...
