background: cystic echinococcosis (ce), caused by hydatid cysts, is a widespread and hazard­ous disease in humans and animals worldwide. the disease is very common in turkey, causing serious economic losses and public health problem. in this study, the seroprevalence of equine ce was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa). methods: partially purified cyst fluid antigen from she...

S100B is a neurotrophic protein detectable in biological fluids and in human milk. Since there are several maternal-neonatal conditions requiring the administration of animal milks the aim of the present study was to quantify S100B in milk from different mammalian species and to compare protein's concentration among human and mammalian milks. We assessed S100B concentrations in donkey (n=12), g...

Previous evidence has shown that word pairs that are either related in form (e.g., ruc-berro; donkey-watercress) or very closely semantically related (e.g., ruc-caballo, donkey-horse) produce interference effects in a translation recognition task (Ferré et al., 2006; Guasch et al., 2008). However, these effects are not observed when the words have a less close semantic relation (e.g., ruc-oso, ...

The donkey population has increased in the last 10 years, with an estimated 50 million donkeys currently worldwide. Donkey welfare, meanwhile, is increasing global concern that receives close public scrutiny. However, multiple challenges are surrounding how welfare assessed and recorded. Animal Welfare Indicators (AWIN) project first project, funded by European Commission, intended to improve d...

Little research information is available on the prevalence of diseases of donkeys in Uganda. A study was undertaken between September 1994 and April 1995 to identify diseases and health problems of donkeys in Uganda. A survey was conducted in Kaptanya sub-County, Tingey County in Kapchorwa District, Uganda. Data were collected by questionnaire from 159 donkey owners in Kaptanya. Forty responden...

Mice immunized with recombinant vaccinia virus (VACC) expressing Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus capsid protein and glycoproteins E1 and E2 or with attenuated VEE TC-83 virus vaccine developed VEE-specific neutralizing antibody and survived intraperitoneal challenge with virulent VEE virus strains including Trinidad donkey (subtype 1AB), P676 (subtype 1C), 3880 (subtype 1D), and Ever...

Thirty-eight taxa of Zygomycetes distributed in 15 genera were recorded from tapir (Tapirus terrestris), camel (Camelus bactrianus), horse (Equus caballus), deer (Cervus elaphus), agouti (Dasyprocta aguti), donkey (Equus asinus), llama (Llama glama) and waterbuck (Kobus ellipsiprymnus) dung collected at the Reserva Ecológica de Dois Irmãos located in Recife, State of Pernambuco, Northeast Brazi...

There are several major proposals for treating donkey anaphora such as discourse representation theory and the likes, or E-Type theories and the likes. Every one of them works well for a set of specific examples that they use to demonstrate validity of their approaches. As I show in this paper, however, they are not very generalisable and do not account for essentially the same problem that the...
