ninety six pairs of adrenal glands from lori – bakhtiari sheep and goat, aged 6 month to 1 year and 1 – 1.5 year from borujen abattoir were collected. after collecting the glands and weighting them, some parameters such as: length, wide and thickness of left and right side by caliper device were measured. in histological studies, after tissue preparation and staining with h&e;, cortical zones a...

Cystic Echinococcosis is an important zoonosis in the sheep rising areas of Iran. To develop a simple and reliable diagnostic method for Echinococcus infection in definitive hosts, E. granulosus polyoclonal antibodies (PolyAbs) were prepared from adult worm in rabbit. A selected PoAb was used for coproantigen detection in faecal samples obtained from animals naturally infected with Echinococcus...

In nine districts in the north of Khorasan province, in north-eastern Iran, a 5-year retrospective study was carried out to determine the prevalences, in livestock slaughtered in abattoirs, of the parasitic infections responsible for the condemnation of the animals' carcasses and viscera (and the economic importance of such infections in terms of lost meat and offal).

Background and Objectives Enzootic abortion of ewes (EAE) is caused by infection of sheep and goats by Chlamydia abortus bacterium. Chlamydial abortion in bovine could occur by Chlamydia abortus, Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia pecorum. C. psittaci is the causative agent of psittacosis or ornithosis disease in humans and birds. It also causes acute pneumonia in cattle and sheep. The present st...

Three experiments were conducted to estimate the effects of single intramuscular (IM) administrations of vitamin E on blood plasma and tissue concentrations of alpha-tocopherol in sheep. In Expt 1, plasma kinetics of alpha-tocopherol in sheep (n 30) were investigated following IM administration of three doses (ten sheep/dose) of DL-alpha-tocopheryl acetate, (20, 40 and 60 mg/kg live weight). Pl...
