The addition of ginger and milk powder rejected in the feed can improve work organs digestion. This research was conducted with aim knowing effect adding ration at different levels on internal organ profile broiler chickens. method used this study a completely randomized design factorial pattern 3 treatments (factor A) 4 B) using 2 replications for each replication or experimental unit containi...

OBJECTIVE The present study has been undertaken with the main objective of evaluating the aqueous extract of flowers of Muntingia calabura for antispasmodic activity on isolated rabbit's jejunum. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was carried out on isolated rabbit's jejunum preparations. The aqueous extract of flowers of M. calabura was applied in different doses by cumulative manner without wa...

OBJECTIVE To determine alterations in quantities and distributions of natural antimicrobials following ischemia-reperfusion injury. We hypothesized that these compounds would be upregulated in areas of small intestine where changes in permeability and cellular disruption were likely and where protective mechanisms would be initiated. METHODS Rats with ischemia-reperfusion underwent superior m...

determination of normal gastric emptying time and small intestinal transit time are useful in detecting gastrointestinal motility disorders and partial obstructions of the pylorus or small intestine. this study was conducted to evaluate iodixanol as a contrast agent in the gastrointestinal tract in new zealand white rabbit. twelve clinically healthy adult rabbits were prepared and kept for two ...

in this investigation, 25 adult new zealand white rabbits randomly selected from both sexes and studied.coloured latex injection and corrosion cast methods were applied on the materials. this study was carried out to disclose the distribution of the cardiac veins of the new zealand white rabbits. the veins that drain the heart were found to be the great cardiac vein, the middle cardiac vein, th...

During intestinal absorption, dietary polyglutamyl folates are hydrolyzed to monoglutamyl folates by pteroylpolyglutamate hydrolase (folate conjugase). This enzyme is present in the brush border and intracellular fractions of human jejunal mucosa. We compared the activities of brush border and intracellular folate conjugase (BBFC and ICFC), and other mucosal enzymes in the jejunum in continuity...

Somatostatin [somatotropin release-inhibitory factor (SRIF)] has widespread actions throughout the gastrointestinal tract, but the receptor mechanisms involved are not fully characterized. We have examined the effect of selective SRIF-receptor ligands on intestinal peristalsis by studying migrating motor complexes (MMCs) in isolated segments of jejunum from rats, mice, and sst(2)-receptor knock...

Passive permeation into the intestine is influenced by resistance of the unstirred water layer (UWL) and the microvillus membrane. Failure to account for UWL leads to gross underestimation of apparent passive permeability coefficients, and to qualitative errors in the interpretation of the nature of absorptive processes. A previously validated in vitro technique was used 1) to determine the per...
