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 ...
Oxidative Stress, Endoparasite Prevalence and Social Immunity in Bee Colonies Kept Traditionally vs. Those Kept for Commercial Purposes
(MDPI, 2020)
Commercially and traditionally managed bees were compared for oxidative stress (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and malondialdehyde (MDA)), the prevalence of parasites (<i>Lotmaria ...
Carvacrol acts as a potent selective antagonist of different types of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and enhances the effect of monepantel in the parasitic nematode Ascaris suum
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
The neuromuscular system of parasitic nematodes has proven to be an efficient pharmacological target for antihelmintics. Some of the most frequently used antiparasitic drugs are agonists or antagonists of nicotinic ...
Twenty-five-year study of Nosema spp. in honey bees (Apis mellifera) in Serbia
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
A total of 7386 samples of adult honey bees from different areas of Serbia (fifteen regions and 79 municipalities) were selected for light microscopy analysis for Nosema species during 1992-2017. A selection of honey bee ...
Integration of dry-column flash chromatography with NMR and FTIR metabolomics to reveal cytotoxic metabolites from Amphoricarpos autariatus
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Metabolomics generate a profile of small molecules from plant extracts, which could be directly responsible for bioactivity effects. Using thy-column flash chromatography enabled a rapid and inexpensive method for the very ...
The effect of diet types on some quality characteristics of artificially reared Apis mellifera queens
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2020)
The influence of various diets on the quality of Apis mellifera queens was assessed. Colonies intended for queen cell production were assigned to four groups fed on (1) sugar-only, (2) mix of sugar, honey and fresh pollen, ...
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 ...
Broad-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant and/or fluoroquinolone-resistant enterobacterales associated with canine and feline urogenital infections
(MDPI, 2020)
The aim of the present study was to characterize Enterobacterales resistant to 3rd and 4th generation cephalosporins, carbapenems and/or fluoroquinolones, isolated from dogs and cats with urogenital infections. In total, ...
DNA-binding and DNA-protecting activities of small natural organic molecules and food extracts
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2020)
The review summarizes literature data on the DNA-binding, DNA-protecting and DNA-damaging activities of a range of natural human endogenous and exogenous compounds. Small natural organic molecules bind DNA in a site-specific ...
Fatty acid profile as a discriminatory tool for the origin of lamb muscle and adipose tissue from different pastoral grazing areas in North Macedonia - A short communication
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The fatty acid (FA) profiles of lamb muscle and adipose tissue originating from ten different grazing areas in North Macedonia and an assessment of whether the meat origin could be distinguished on the basis of FA profile ...
