The first molecular characterization of Sarcocystis cameli in the Indian dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius)
AbstractIn the present study, tissue samples (tongue, esophagus and heart) were investigated from dromedary camels of India for identification and characterization ofSarcocystis spp. using histopathology, PCR and gene sequencing. Genomic DNA extracted from these tissue samples was used for PCR amplification of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (cox1) ofSarcocystis spp. and the partial sequence of small subunit ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA) gene of theS. cameli. The PCR products were purified, sequenced and analyzed using bioinformatics tools. Based on phylogenetic analysis of thecox1 gene, the sequences of the present stu...

Determination of performance response of broilers to fermented tropical leaf meal supplementation using meta-analytical method
AbstractFermented tropical leaf meals (FTLM) are currently added to chicken feed to improve chicken productivity due to their reported nutritional and medicinal benefits. However, the effects of FTLM on broiler productivity and health are less clear. Thus, this meta-analysis was designed to assess the effects of FTLM on the performance outcomes of broilers Eleven controlled studies were retrieved and used to explore the impacts of dietary FTLM supplementation on growth performance [feed intake (FI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), average daily gain (ADG)], blood lipids, slaughter performance (abdominal fat, breast and thigh ...

Neurologic changes induced by whole-brain synchrotron microbeam irradiation: 10 months behavioral and veterinary follow-up
CONCLUSIONS: While acute toxicity of microbeam exposures depends on very high peak doses, late toxicity mainly relates to delivery of high MBI valley doses. MBI seems to elicit low impact on normal rat behavior but further tests are warranted to fully explore this hypothesis. However, high peak and valley doses are well tolerated from a veterinary point of view. This normal tissue tolerance to whole-brain, high-dose MBI reveals a promising avenue for MRT, i.e., therapeutic applications of microbeams which are poised for translation to a clinical environment.PMID:38462014 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijrobp.2024.02.053 (Source: Health Physics)

Photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline using a novel WO3-ZnO/AC under visible light irradiation: Optimization of effective factors by RSM-CCD
Environ Pollut. 2024 Mar 7;347:123746. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123746. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMitigating pharmaceutical pollution in the global environment is imperative, and tetracycline (TC) is a commonly utilized antibiotic in human and veterinary medicine. The persistent existence of TC highlights the necessity of establishing efficient measures to protect water systems and the environment from detrimental contaminants. Herein, a novel rhubarb seed waste-derived activated carbon-supported photocatalyst (WO3-ZnO/RUAC) was synthesized by combining wet impregnation and ultrasonic methods. The activated carbon (A...
