Epub 2024 Feb 29.ABSTRACTThe study investigated the impact of incorporating a specific herbal blend comprising coriander, garlic, and fenugreek (CGF) at various levels on the zootechnical performance, blood metabolites and nutrient digestibility in broiler chickens. The 42-day experiment involved 360 broilers (Cobb 500), organized into four distinct treatment groups. The dietary interventions included a control group consisting of a basal diet and the same diet was supplemented with CGF at rates of 1, 2, and 3%. Broilers receiving a 1% phytogenic mixture exhibi...

Dietary Chinese herbal formula supplementation improves yolk fatty acid profile in aged laying hens
Vet Q. 2024 Dec;44(1):1-11. doi: 10.1080/01652176.2024.2319828. Epub 2024 Feb 25.ABSTRACTChinese herbal formula (CHF) has the potential to improve the performance of aged laying hens through integrated regulation of various physiological functions. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of dietary CHF supplementation on the yolk fatty acid profile in aged laying hens. A total of 144 healthy 307-day-old Xinyang black-feather laying hens were randomly allocated into two groups: a control group (CON, fed a basal diet) and a CHF group (fed a basal diet supplemented with 1% CHF; contained 0.30% Leonurus japonicus Ho...

Serum protein electrophoresis in European mink ( < em > Mustela lutreola < /em > ): reference intervals and comparison of agarose gel electrophoresis and capillary zone electrophoresis
CONCLUSION: Both methods are adequate for identifying serum protein disorders, but the AGE and CZE methods are not equivalent. Therefore, reference intervals for each technique are required.PMID:38389258 | DOI:10.1080/01652176.2024.2318195 (Source: Veterinary Quarterly)

Epub 2024 Feb 23.ABSTRACTA 16-year-old warmblood mare was referred with a progressive history of behavioral changes and left-sided blindness. Following neuroanatomical localization to the forebrain, magnetic resonance imaging of the head revealed a well-delineated, 4.5 cm in diameter, round pituitary mass causing marked compression of the midbrain and optic chiasm. Euthanasia was recommended but declined by the owners. Veterinary specialists and a human neurosurgeon collaboratively prepared for surgical case management. A novel navigated transmandibular latera...
