Medical and translational scientific research requires the use of animal models as an initial approach to study new therapies treatments, but when objective is exploration potentialities, classical fail adequately mimic problems in humans. Among larger that have been explored more intensely recent decades, small ruminants, namely sheep goats, emerged excellent options. The main advantages assoc...

Neonate ruminants possess little cell-wall and starch degrading enzyme activity. Importantly, early establishment of fibrolytic, amylolytic, and proteolytic capacities is influential for the early expansion of the reticulorumen epithelia. Such an early development in reticulorumen fermentation will enable a timely hepatic adaptation to volatile fatty acids assimilation. The early nutrient relea...

Background: Clinical training is an important part of the training courses of medicine during which students learn how to face the patients, diagnose the diseases and treat the patients. Alongside clinical apprenticeship, related theoretical courses are presented so that the most training possible is covered. In the past the theoretical courses of pediatrics ward of Birjand University of Medica...

Microscopy as “field based test” was compared with IS900 blood PCR for the diagnosis and estimationof prevalence of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) in domestic livestock withclinical Johne’s disease (JD). Of 252 animals screened, 39.3 and 13.1% were positive by faecal microscopyand blood PCR, respectively. Proportional agreement between “microscopy” and blood PCR was subst...

Phylogenetic analysis has shown that Escherichia coli is composed of four main phylogenetic groups (A, B1, B2 and D). Characterization of phylogenetic groups is of clinical interest, as group A and B1 generally associated with commensals, whereas most enteropathogenic isolates are assigned to group D, and group B2 is associated with extra-intestinal pathotype. One hundred E. coli strains recove...
