Structural characteristics of circulating immune complexes in calves with bronchopneumonia: Impact on the quiescent leukocytes
(Elsevier, 2020)
Calf bronchopneumonia is accompanied by increased level of circulating immune complexes (CIC), and we analysed size, and protein and lipid constituents of these CIC with an attempt to elucidate the connection between the ...
The impact of the chromium supplementation on insulin signalling pathway in different tissues and milk yield in dairy cows
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2018)
Thirty days before expected time of parturition, 20 Holstein cows were divided into -Cr and +Cr groups. From day 25 before parturition (BP) up to day 30 after parturition (AP), +Cr cows received 10 mg of Cr (chromium-enriched ...
Evidence of acute phase reaction in asymptomatic dogs naturally infected with Babesia canis
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2020)
Asymptomatic outdoor dogs can be carriers of Babesia canis, but data describing the development of an acute phase response (APR) are not available. We hypothesised that these dogs have a moderate APR that could be detected ...
Age-related Changes in the Articular Cartilage of the Stifle Joint in Non-working and Working German Shepherd Dogs
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The aims of this study were to define age-related histological changes in the articular cartilage of the stifle joint in non-chondrodystrophic dogs and to determine whether physical activity has a positive impact on ...
Ivermectin effects on motor coordination and contractions of isolated rat diaphragm
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
Ivermectin, the antiparasitic drug from the macrocyclic lactones class raises attention due to its high efficiency against nematodes and arthropods and very specific toxic and side effects that it may produce in host. ...
Broad Spectrum of Antimicrobial Activity of Cotton Fabric Modified with Oxalic Acid and CuO/Cu2O Nanoparticles
(Korean Fiber Soc, Seoul, 2019)
This study discusses the possibility of fabrication of textile nanocomposites with antimicrobial activity against antibiotics-resistant bacterial strains and yeast. Modification of cotton fabric with oxalic acid solutions ...
The effects of lairage time and handling procedure prior to slaughter on stress and meat quality parameters in pigs
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Lairage time (short - 8 min to 2.7 h, n = 28 vs. long - 14 to 21.5 h, n = 72) and pig handling (gentle - no use of stick or electric prod, pig not slipping, falling, nor emitting high-pitched vocalizations vs. rough - where ...
Identifying Physiological Stress Biomarkers for Prediction of Pork Quality Variation
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Simple Summary Prediction of technological and sensory pork quality-during a pigs life or quickly after slaughter-is increasingly required by the pork industry in order to classify carcasses or primary cuts of carcasses ...
Tresholds of blood variables obtained by receiver operating characteristic analysis for indication of fat and glycogen content in the liver of postpartum dairy cows
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2020)
The objective was to determine optimal thresholds of blood variables that are associated with liver lipid and glycogen content in dairy cows. Liver specimens of 15 Holstein dairy cows were taken 2 weeks postpartum (PP) and ...
Effects of dietary selenium-yeast concentrations on growth performance and carcass composition of ducks
(CSIRO PUBLISHING, CLAYTON, 2017)
The aim of the present study was to assess effects of selenium (Se)-yeast diet supplementation on performance and carcass composition in ducks. The study was performed on 240 1-day old ducklings of the same origin (Cherry ...
