Sera samples from 89 dairy cows with repeat breeder and 94 healthy pregnant dairy cows (controls) from Elazig province of eastern Turkey were tested for presence of Neospora caninum antibodies by use of a competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA). Fifteen out of 183 cows tested (8.19%) were found to be seropositive to N. caninum antibody. Overall, seroprevalence of N. caninum was s...

In recent years, the Philippines have seen a robust swine industry, with record high farm gate price per kg of live hogs. This augurs well for swine raisers considering the eradication of Foot and Mouth Disease as well as the absence of major disease outbreaks. The improved housing which resulted in the proliferation of tunnel ventilated houses was one of the contributory factors for such a phe...

The common carotid arteries of normotensive non-arteriosclerotic Sprague-Dawley (S-D) rats, mildly hypertensive but arteriosclerotic breeder S-D rats, severely hypertensive but non-arteriosclerotic virgin spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), and severely hypertensive breeder SHR were ligated to induce injury. Three weeks post-ligation, the animals were killed and histopathological sections of...

A testing strategy and corresponding test plan have been presented for the two proposed US candidate breeder blankets: (1) a helium-cooled solid breeder concept with ferritic steel structure and Be neutron multiplier, but without a fully independent TBM and (2) a dual-coolant helium-cooled ferritic steel structure with self-cooled LiPb breeding zone that uses a flow channel insert as MHD and th...

A major current problem in public health is the issue of antimicrobial resistance Escherichia coli humans and poultry. In Indonesia, multidrug-resistant E. are specific concern since such may cause problems humans. The prevalence chicken strains genes, which tet(A) tet(B) were investigated present study. total 57 swabs collected from layer broiler breeder farms West Java, used experiment. Eight...

This experiment was one part of a larger study investigating problems of aggression towards females by male broiler breeder fowl. To investigate causal mechanisms, we were interested in determining (1) if feed-restriction during rearing affects behaviour towards females at sexual maturity and (2) if aggressiveness towards females is correlated with general levels of aggressiveness. We compared ...

Severe myocardial necrosis was produced in virgin Sprague-Dawley rats without preexisting arteriosclerosis and in breeder Sprague-Dawley rats with various degrees of arteriosclerosis by giving two subcutaneous injections of isoproterenol; the virgin rats received 50 mg/100 g and the breeder rats 25 mg/100 g body weight. Breeder rats withstood the stress and shock of myocardial necrosis with few...
