Hemimelia as a congenital anomaly is a failure of development of extremities formation in embryonic period. This anomaly is defined as complete absence of the part of extremities and different forms were explained for hemimelia. Adactyly is an alternative name for transverse hemimelia and is a rare disorder in the most of animal species. A two months old male lamb with normal vital signs was re...

Two mutant strains of Escherichia coli have been isolated in which the cellular location of an outer membrane protein, the phage lambda receptor (the lamB gene product), is altered. These mutations were initially selected in a strain containing a lamB-lacZ fusion. In the parent strain the protein coded for by the hybrid gene is located, at least in part, in the outer membrane. In the mutants it...

INTRODUCTION Leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease transmitted by phlebotomine sandflies. Between 700,000 and 1.2 million cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis and between 200,000 and 400,000 cases of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), which is fatal if left untreated, occur annually worldwide. Liposomal amphotericin B (LAMB), alone or in combination with other drugs, has been extensively studied as VL tre...

Postmortem proteolysis in skeletal muscle and factors affecting this process were examined in pork, lamb and beef longissimus muscles (LM) to determine the cause of differences in meat tenderness among these species. Fat thickness differed among species in the following order: pork greater than beef greater than lamb. The following patterns were observed for rate of temperature and pH decline: ...

We have studied the immunological relatedness of LamB proteins from a wide range of enterobacterial species, using antibodies directed against denatured Escherichia coli K12 and Klebsiella pneumoniae LamB proteins (LamBE.c. and LamBK.p., respectively), and anti-peptide antibodies directed against 10 distinct loops of LamB from E. coli K12 predicted to protrude either side of the outer membrane....

in this study, in addition to estimating meat demand, live animal supply and marketing services supply for beef and lamb, economic behavior of marketing margin with respect to determinants of meat demand, live animal supply and marketing services supply have been evaluated for years 1998-2004. results indicate that, as examples, beef and lamb marketing margin elasticity with respect to feed pri...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of ageing time of lamb loins prior to freezing on technological characteristics and oxidation stability of coarse ground lamb loin sausage using in a model system. METHODS Lamb loins (M. longissimus lumborum, n = 25) were aged at -1.5°C for 0, 1, 2, 3, and 8 wk and then frozen for the remaining days (a total of 30 wk). The aged...
