this study evaluated the effects of probiotic, lactobacillus plantarum on serum biochemical and some immune parameters of immunized rainbow trout weighting 29.6±1.84 g, with streptococcosis/lactococosis vaccine at 16±1.5°c, for 60 days. a commercial diet was used as the control. fish in the first treatment were immunized with streptococcosis/lactococosis vaccine in bathing route for 1 min. in t...

background: the knowledge in blood constituents isimportant for assessing the physiological status and the health ofanimals. only a limited number of two-humped camels (camelusbactrianus) were reared in ardabil province, northwest of iran.objectives:the present study was carried out to find out whetherthe sex and pregnancy affect thyroid hormones, lipid andlipoprotein profile, and selected bioc...

an experiment was conducted on eight weak and anaemic goats revealed pale conjunctivae, increased heart rate, rough hair coat, dullness and depression. the haematology showed significantly decreased haemoglobin (7.37±0.16 g %), packed cell volume (pcv)(23.37±0.56%),total erythrocyte count (tec)(8.12±0.18 million/cumm), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (mch) (9.10±0.30 pg) and mean corpuscular volum...

Background and Objectives: Up to date, several pathophysiological mechanisms are suggested for evolution of depression, including inflammation, neurotransmitter and vitamin D pathways. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of vitamin D supplementation on serum 25-hydroxycalciferol [25(OH) D], intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), some pro-inflammatory biomarkers and neurotransmitters su...

introduction: infectious bronchitis (ib), caused by infectious bronchitis virus (ibv), is an acute and highly contagious disease in chickens. ibv is mainly considered a respiratory infection, other clinical manifestations, including renal, enteric and reproductive signs can be observed. aim: since there has been no study on evaluation of changes in biochemical parameters during ib infection, th...

background: milk fever in cattle, sheep and goats occurs  around the time of parturition and is caused by hypocalcemia. objectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the physiological effects of experimental hypocalcemia on electrocardiography, hematology and serum biochemical changes in markhoz goat breed. methods: ethylene diamine tetra- acetate solution 4.6% was intravenously infused ...
