Modern techniques of teaching bovine rectal ...

The rapid development of veterinary science, social, as well as legal changes require an introduction of certain adaptation techniques. The profession of a veterinarian is evolving in order to keep up with the pace of novelties in clinical practice, scientific discoveries and educational strategy, while at the same time ensuring the compliance with the public mandate in terms of educating professionally competent doctors (33). At present, academic teachers are obliged to prepare students for starting veterinary practice in the course of a 4-year intensive program of ... [full text in English...]

Hormonal regulation of pregnancy and related ...

Rabbit reproductive physiology has been extensively studied for the last century. The aim of this review is to summarize and draw practical conclusions from research on hormonal regulation of pregnancy and related behavioral changes. The rabbit uterus exists in complete duplication. There are two separate utero-cervico-vaginal canals, which fuse externally near the vagina. A corpus of the uterus is absent (46). In the rabbit female puberty is dependent on the breed and state of nutrition. Currently, when kept indoors, the month of birth is not important for achieving ... [full text in English...]

Phylogenetic analysis of canine parvoviruses...

Carnivore protoparvovirus 1, known as Canine parvovirus (CPV), belongs to the genus Protoparvovirus under the subfamily Parvovirinae and the family Parvoviridae. It causes a highly contagious and fatal disease in dogs (ICTV 2018) and is genetically and antigenically different from CPV-1 (canine minute virus), responsible for neonatal death in dogs as well as involved in the Bocavirus genus (34). Canine parvovirus, the enteric pathogen of dogs, has four main antigenic types: CPV-2, CPV-2a, CPV-2b and CPV-2c (24). They are single-stranded, negative-sense DNA viruses, with a ....

Determination of selected hormones and biochemical ...

The Turkish Van cat is a well-known species, known for white silk fur, different eye colors, friendly behavior, and a fondness for water. In recent years, Van cats have been the subject of several scientific studies (11, 13, 20). In these studies, numerous physiological characteristics, disorders, genetic structures, and changes in hematological and biochemical parameters were investigated, although none of the studies to date have investigated the hormonal and biochemical parameters associated with tail gland hyperplasia in Van cats. ...

Effects of gentamicin on spontaneous and agonist-induced...

In mammalians the uterus is at rest during pregnancy until near birth. Local, maternal, mechanical or fetal stimuli cause the myometrium, which is at rest, to contract during birth. The frequency and amplitude of these contractions are high until the birth is completed (38). The molecular mechanisms including myometrial contractions and birth control in species such as humans, goats, and cows have been explained comprehensively in previous studies (15, 38). The control of myometrial contractions ....

Infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) is a member of the genus Iltovirus, family Herpesviridae, subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae. ILTV is taxonomically classified as Gallid herpesvirus 1 (6) and is the causative agent of a respiratory disease known as infectious laryngotracheitis in chickens. The disease occurs frequently in densely populated poultry production areas and generates severe production losses due to increased mortality, decreased egg production, delayed body weight gain ...[full text in English...]

Profiles of virulence genes in enterotoxigenic ...

Diarrhoea in the neonatal period is a major health issue and a permanent challenge to the veterinary profession. At the same time, diarrhoea causes serious economic losses in pig production due to increased morbidity, mortality, treatment costs and poor growth (9, 12, 18). Escherichia coli (E. coli) live in the intestines and are part of the commensal microbiota that plays an important role in the protection of the intestinal tract of animals (21, 26). Nevertheless, there are E. coli strains which cause dangerous infections in suckling and/or weaned piglets. According to ...[full text in English...]

Fibrinous bronchopneumonia (FBPN) is a lung inflammation characterized by the presence of an abundant fibrin mass in the inflammatory exudate. It can be found in domestic animals, such as cattle, sheep, goats, horses, dogs and pigs. Bacterial agents, such as Pasteurella spp., Mannheimia spp. and Mycoplasma spp. are known to cause FBPN in sheep (21). Although pneumonia is histologically known as the inflammation of the lung alveoli, lung inflammation is termed pneumonia as a general concept. With regard to the pathogenesis, morphology and the spread of pneumonia in the ...[full text in English...]
